Outside IR35 JobBoard / Alert Service

[Andy Hallett]

Got sent this by someone I know. They have built a job board solely for UK Contracts. One neat feature is you can filter by IR35 status.

X years in and still the big sites (even ones that only really cater for the UK market) don't offer what is a very obvious filter.

Far fewer jobs - the first one by using an off the peg system has an interface that most agency software packages should be able to connect to without any additional effort so it has a lot more jobs listed.

Neither have been done particularly well so just look like another pair of young pretenders trying to do the same thing many others have tried before. Focussing on the Outside aspect looks like a cheap shot at marketing rather than it being a solid product in the first place.

Both of them look pretty awful the first time you land on them. Also the first one is already duplicating roles. The few I looked at are duplicated on the 29th Jan and 2nd of Feb which already turn me off and there are fewer roles on the second yes but some on there that aren't in the first either.

So just like many of the other scraping services out there be casting a casual eye over both but neither will be close to the go to solution.

I must admit an IR35 search isn't that important to me either. By the time I've narrowed down the roles that I'm suitable for there are so few I can review each one to check IR35. It's not really a factor for me personally either. If the role is good and suits me I'd take an inside one so putting an outside IR35 option actually narrows the field too much.

I've fed that back to them! Thanks NLUK. PS there are lots of jobs Inside (and undetermined) if you follow this link. https://freelanceruk.co.uk/jobs/

Craft a half decent LinkedIn profile and I've not been on a job board in years

[Andy Hallett]

I'd agree that LinkedIn is a great place to be found, but jobboards do serve a purpose for keeping an eye on the market and being alerted to new roles.

I had asked JobServe if they were going to add an IR35 filter.

Not unreasonably they just said, stick 'Outside' in the additional criteria box and 'that'll cover you.' And that is what I did.

I can't believe how bad Jobserve's platforms still are. Barely seems to have changed from the mid 90s in terms of look and functionality.
