As the title said really, wondered if anyone really used CV library in anger to apply for contract roles. I've noticed a fair few infrastructure positions start to appear up on there at quite decent day rates. Or do people think these are probably fishing position for the most part?

I have always held a grudge against them because of their spam emailing.

Agreed. I have never knowingly put my CV on their site but they always seem to get hold of it and email me unsolicited crud.

I stopped using it over a year ago but recently applied to a job that was posted. Did not notice before but there are several options for e-mail preferences so you shouldn't get any unwanted e-mails. As to the original question, not yet.

Just waiting for good old GDPR to properly kick in, then some fun will be had.

Yep, my email option is 'Mark as junk' and I don't get any unwanted e-mails anymore.
