    Experteer

    Scam?

    w ww.experteer.co.uk/search/jobs

    They had a position that might have been of interest, but it seems unless you sign up for the 'premium' service, all you get is ads and nag screens.....

    Anyone used them, good or bad experiences?

    To answer my own question, the Experteer business model seems to be to scrape job ads off other sites, aggregate them, match them to your 'career goals', reel you in when their ad appears in a search , then only make the job details available to premium (£15/month) customers.

    I found the original of the ad I was interested in - it was 4 weeks old and deleted from the original advertisers site.

    They claim to be used by 'headhunters' however I'd be surprised if there was anything there that was not also available on JS or LinkedIn....
