Reply to: Contract Job board

[craig1]

Sending me one email about a new job board is fine, I actually don't mind that too much. I've just received my 3rd copy of it. That's spam and makes me start to dislike them rather than simply be neutral.

I have used that (or should I say your) site and I think it's rubbish. It's meant to be a contractors jobs board and yet if i search for roles say above £600 per day it gives me permit jobs paying above £600, since when does a) a contract mean a permit job and b) you should be done for trade description!

Well spotted NLUK! I also had the spam email through last week, god knows where they got my address from

[Ignis Fatuus]

I just got that 'spam' PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL email too... Hmm!

I am pleased to see a contract only site tho. I wonder whether it will be enforced though.

Of course it won't. The agents are their customers, you are only the merchandise. They won't get far by upsetting the customers just to please the merchandise.

Which 5 would you say those are?

I found jobsite, theitjobboard, cwjobs, cv-library & monster to have generated the most interest from agents. And despite the high profile of jobserve I've had precisely zero interest from that site (except as a result of jobs applied for there).

Interesting I've periodically checked out cwjobs and the itjobboard but have only ever got contracts from jobserve so that's the only one I bother checking regularly

Hands up all those who knew there are over 5000 job-placement websites out there... Of which about 5 are worth worrying about.

When reflected at me, I find your impeccable search/memory skills really annoying. But when you do it to others, its sometimes really funny!

Why thank you..... I think

[Bexter]

I find it a bit odd you ask for a review yet you were quick enough to recommend in back in Decemeber..

Never heard of them until today when a 'PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL' mail from them dropped into my inbox and only 1 spelling mistake:

Contracjobs.com

I also like the hyperlinks:

Login/c/15434507/2713/8pF7xnh/jcO4?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.contractjobs.com %2F

However they do seem real and not just for IT staff as well

there is a contract only job site @ <spam>,

They have a varied amount of roles where something is bound to suit you

But it is worthwhile just refreshing your cv fresh and apply apply apply........the possibility of getting something is better then nothing

Not heard of them either, I generally use cwjobs, jobserve, IT Job board, totaljobs and LinkedIn
