    Please do not quote spam as this enables it to 'live on' once the spam post is removed. ;)

    Firstly, apologies to those who have received an email alert for this post - I know how annoying flase alerts can be.

    Although I appreciate that most people on here are posting with the best of intentions, could I please draw people's attention to this part of the first post of this thread:

    Please refrain from posting about individual jobs and particularly individual jobs that you've released - this only serves to annoy others who aren't local to you, who may receive an email alert to a new job posted on here, only to find that it's a RE visit to the Outer Hebrides (for example).

    Its also worth noting that GR and Gfk (at least) release jobs bit by bit, so what you see as a new job may not be visible in everyone's area.


    Also, I feel another reminder about naming clients is needed too:

    Being cryptic is tantamount to saying the client company's name, so please limit your alerts to "Supermarket" or "Petrol station" - the people registered with the relevant companies will know who you mean anyway!
