I think I can safely assume this is not a real job as the poster is posting the same job located in various hospital sites nationally. The unlimited income bit made me chuckle!
I just wondered what the poster gains from creating these? Does anyone know? Is it to get email addresses? Or CVs? Or to ring the telephone number?

Maybe to get a list of details to sell on for money, most people will put a lot of personal information on a cv and all that information can easily be sold on. Thats why gumtree is not the best place to look for a job, i have seen a few dodgy ones asking for pictures to be sent to a mobile to apply for a job.0

The new universal jobmatch site is getting just as bad as gumtree, have seen quite a few jobs posted from well known companies but asking for a cv to be sent to a gmail address so i would never apply to them. But many people wont look to check and send it away anyway.0
