Recommended online jobsites

Just enquiring if there might be any further decent online jobsites to register with. I am looking for clerical work and have registered with
Totaljobs, Reed, CV library and Jobsite.

Are there any more that I should be registered with that can be recommended?

    Indeed.co.uk

    always good for searching


    as for registering cv type site, never helped me, just had recruitment agents ring me about unsuitable posistions.

    Yes I find Indeed very good for searching only but would never register with them as your CV appears to be accessible to anyone in the world if you google your own name.
  • Try SecRecruit ? Jobs Today ? Recruitment Genius ? Hired online ?

    Have had genuine comeback/interview offers from all these sites when I've been doing the searching

    Didn't know that about Indeed :o when I used to ask recruiters where they saw my CV they always use to say Reed, CV library to be fair.

    Setting CV to private prevents this does it not ?

    Just looked at this again on indeed and setting it to private is pointless as no-one will see it. Its just a convenient way of automatically attaching your cv to any job application


    Setting it to public I assume will mean all or sundry on the WWW will be able to view it as previously

    I think it's accessible to users registered as employers

    Previously when I registered all the world and their dog could see it. Would be interesting to see if this is still the case before I upload it

    Monster ??
    I've been to sign-on this morning and the lady asked how much i'd been using their site (universal jobmatch). I told her not as much 'cos i found some of the others better. But she told me i needed to keep searching on their site as they check my a/c and could stop any benefit if they thought i hadn't been seaching.

    But surely you make a note of all your job searches on Universal job match?

    I used to copy over all the confirmations (with reference numbers) onto my UJM Activity Page and the job centre were fine with that as they could see reference numbers that they could follow up if they needed to.
