    'Not value for tax payers money'....thats funny coming from those looking for any excuse to not look for a job.

    Ujm is not designed to spy on people at all, like we have the time! Exactly how could your job search activity be used for identity theft?
    The website is badly built and they have already said they cannot guarantee that any third party might be able to gain an access to your details. Hackers paradise I shoud say.... your details sold on etc[/QUOTE]

    But that's no different for any other website or system out there, gosh if they can hack the pentagon is anywhere on the web 100% secure is all I was alluding too.

    So how would the jobs get matched to the agreements?

    Manually if I search with one of my customers I have a copy of their jsag in front of me and go by that, I only match vacancies that a customer agrees to apply for.

    So how will they get matched and sent to the account holder? That is what it is saying and if you do not apply you have to say why. How do those jobs get matched? People on the WP do not have searches done at the job centre anymore.
    Makes no sense really.

  • You would think that any help that you could get would be welcomed, using this system in addition to all the other job search techniques you are using, if you want to get a job.
    But i feel this being monitored, and sanctions if you dont do as you are told will upset your daytime tv schedule.

    When you enter a customer ujm account as an advisor the system recognises it, I would just do a search the same way you would however when I save a job a little ble dot appears next to it on the home page that is a matched vacancy. Does that make more sense?

    People on WP won't be matched by jcp advisors.

    But no one is going to do that for people on the WP
