    Have been a lurker for a while, but thought I'd share my surprise from yesterday. Got a letter inviting me to an interview for a job that stopped taking applications in July! Can't believe how long they have taken, but I had assumed I didn't get it a long time ago, so was a nice surprise!

    What sites do you all use to look for jobs? Find totaljobs and reed to be mostly sales stuff that I have no interest in.

    Good luck to everybody with the jobhunt!

    ooh good luck with the interview!

    what sites do i use? lots, although some of them are repetitive.
    jobs.ac.uk
    monster.co.uk (although i don't find anything to apply for on this one!)
    hays.co.uk
    simplyofficejobs.co.uk
    simplyhrjobs.co.uk
    jobcentreplus
    jobsearch.co.uk
    jobisjob.co.uk
    vacancycentral.co.uk

    hope that helps

    Really bummed today - got another rejection from interview I went to on Friday and again got the same story - interviewed well, came across nicely, had all the technical skills and competencies required but wasn't quite right for some reason - so frustrating as if they said we didn't like xyz at least I'd have something to work on and improve :mad:
