    There are thousands. Depends on the job/location you are going for. I use jobsite as I like the search functionality otherwise have you looked at the newspaper sites such as times/guardian etc. Again depends on what you're looking for?

    Thanks yeah, its for direct marketing roles in retail. Must admit I've seen the ads for jobsite but never used it. May give it a try.

    Have you any of you ever uploaded CV's to these sites? I don't know if I feel that comfortable about that.

    Yeah they had an ad on the TV earlier in the year, they also sponsor my team of choice!

    As for CV sites i've read mixed reports, much of the time they just sell your details on numerous times over. end result you get called by loads of people or worse still your CV ends up in front of your boss!!

    Thanks Annaleese I thought about setting up a different email address, not including my number etc. but then it all gets too much to manage.

    That's good to know and did you get you last job through them then? (if you don't mind me asking!)

    I think the reputable sites should be alright, just have to make your own judgement I guess.
