Jobs(w)erve

[Ltd ability]

I got that error before, it wouldn't let me upload a CV when it was a word doc but would if i tried it using notepad or .txt.

Not sure why that is tho

Monster is the most unfriendly site to work with compared to places like jobsite, IMHO.

Monster it's all stupid flash content & adverts, does not help.

Anyone else having problems applying for roles on Jobs(w)erve today?

Am getting the following messages:

"Error while trying to process the uploaded CV"

"Please correct the errors highlighted below"

"No CV has been attached to this application"

It looks like someone is messing up the back end stuff. Anyone else getting similar problems on Jobs(w)erve?

Yes - anoying. Means I have to speak to the pimps direct, but prehaps that is not a bad thing, is it?

I must admit what you are saying are some of the reasons why I don't use Monstor. Also, their site has been broken into a few times, so it makes me a bit unconfortable using it. But, in times of need, when a contract is needed, one can't be choosy.

I always speak to the pimps.... I have (in the past) sent cvs via the linky-things but never get a response...

Nowadays (when looking seriously rather than just trawling) I even google the Pimp for a contact number when they don't put one on.

I rely on the fact that my charm and personality* will give me an edge of just being a single cv hidden within 00s of Emails.....

* Well dogged, thick skinned persistance!

Whenever I speak to the pimp, they tell me to send them my cv and leave them alone. So it's not always a good thing.

Lucky I don't do Christmas Cards. .

I'm always unloved. Even my parents are looking to throw me out onto the streets.

I hate Monster also ... never use it.

My mainstay is cwjobs, jobserve and jobsite ... but in reality most of these have the same jobs anyhow!

And Monster has been hacked twice. Balls to putting any personal details on there now mad
