Have you tried the sub continent ?
Also, have a look in 'Jeapordy'. According to the Daily mail, there are thousands of jobs there........

Thanks for the repsonces. I have to say I only concentrate on JS and CWJ day to day as (as you say) they seem to cover all jobs ever posted and the extra time to do the others doesn't really make it worth while. So the suggestion of using the Contract Search Wizard makes that job even easier!! Thanks!
Good to know I am not that out of touch with the current job board trends! Thanks.

That list seems perfect to me, the only thing I would add is if that I am busy I am content just looking at Jobswerve as I find that 99% of jobs are replicated on the other boards so get frustrated spending all day looking at the same stuff in triplicate but then it does just need that 1% to get a role I guess.
I would also sack Monster for searching. Stick my CV on and forget about it and I don't even bother with Linked In, more than enough other methods to spend time on than that.
If you have time to hammer all the points on that list then I would say you have it covered though.

I use Contract Search Wizard - Part of the Contractor UK Network on this website.
It gathers jobs from most of the sites on your list.

Best Places to Look for new Jobs
Hi All,
I've been contracting for 7 years now and just come back onto the market after being in contract pretty much for the last 3 years. So it's been a while since I last started really hammering the job boards....
I just wondered what people think are the best job boards to look for roles/push your CV to. 3 years ago (for me) it seemed to be (in order of preference and how they look this week):
1. Jobserve (still busy)
2. CWJobs (very very busy)
3. Jobsite (moderate)
4. Monster (hardly worth the bother - clunky screens and little jobs).
5. LinkedIn (lots of agents keen to 'add' you to bolster their numbers but seems to me no actual jobs going).
NB. I work in Testing/QA.
Would you agree these are still the ones to concentrate on, or are they now some new kids on the block which are far better?
Cheers in advance,
