Ad on Job Match

Just seen this in an ad on Job Match:


This is a self employed vacancy distributing seasonal broachers in your local community. Higher incomes for people who are interested in team leadership , with full training provided .


Doesn't give you much faith in the ads does it?

    It's widely known the jobsearch database is full of spam.

    One regular poster on here was able to post jobs on there !!

    UJM is full of spam and 3rd party adverts as we all know but the DWP and UJM don't seem to care!

  • I see loads of these ads for my area. I am very suspicious of some of the jobs. For example I saw a job and applied through the apply button. It kept saying Received instead of viewed. Then it disappeared. A few weeks before Christmas it came back up again.

    I went to apply for it only to see the apply button greyed out. I have a feeling some jobs are stored in history and just come up.
