Originally posted by OwlHoot View PostI've noticed that in recent weeks. Maybe there is a lull in contract starts until the referendum result is known.
Mind you, for similar roles, the contracts pay close to £500/day, but the number of permie jobs doing the same thing paying more than £50K even is pitiful.
No wonder everyone has jumped ship....

NOTE: Make sure you have a cheap 2nd phone with other non personal number (e.g. PAYG SIM) for job hunting. Once your phone number is on the internet it will be spammed 24/7.

I found Reed was always useful for that as it tracks the number of applicants against a role i.e. you can gauge competition. Funny seeing 30+ applicants against an "MS Excel analyst" type role.
Any recommended sites where the agents trawl these days? I'd rather them do the work finding me a gig while I'm out in the sunshine rather than have to sit on JS pressing F5 each day.

Sadly there is no evidence other sites have jobs that are not on Jobserve. It's worth lodging your CV elsewhere. Agents do trawl them and contact you directly but the general feeling is many skills are facing significant increases in available people coupled with significant reduction in openings. Naturally the bargain hunters are still out in force offering derisory rates.

.. or what are the best (IT) jobsites to use now?
I'm tentatively on the prowl for a new gig (though a summer off is a lot more appealing/likely), I've not updated my CV in three years. It used to be you'd update it onto CWJobs, Jobserve, Reed etc. and wait for the sharks to start circling once they've had their "a CV has been updated" notifications.
I've just had a quick scan of these but the number of adverts seems to be a lot lower, is the market utter tulipe or have the ads moved elsewhere?
Please don't say LinkedIn, I've been ignoring every connection request since 2012.Tags: None
