I visit this web site on a daily basis to check what sort of jobs are available in the IT market. Also when I have been in a position where I have needed to recruit staff I have also seen my requests posted via the standard agencies. I have seen on some reviews that they believe many of these jobs do not exist however, I can be sure that there are many on the site that do exist - mainly due to the reasons above. The site is fairly user friendly you just need to put in few key words and then the location you would like to work in. Remenber when doing your searches that some of the locations are very regionalised ie South West where as some are very ...  Read the complete review

jobserve is full of what is known in the trade as "phantom jobs", this explains previous reviewers comments about receiving no replies. advertisers basically place jobs that don't exist on this board in the hope of building a cv database.

I wish that Jobserve could vet the adverts in some way, so that when you reply to an advert that is the job you are put forward for. Am I asing for too much??? ...  Read the complete review

It is fast, quick and simple to operate. What else can you ask? Oh it has trillions of jobs. I supposed the only grumble is that it doesn't always show you rates of pay but hey, that the agencies fault. Want to find a job, use it.

This is an IT recruitment website where searches can be performed by job title and area and sorted into latest job.

You CV can be uploaded onto the site so prospective employers or agencies can check out your details or you can request that specific jobs be emailed to you on a regular basis so you don't have to keep looking on jobserve. The jobs include permanent and contract as well as a selection of overseas vacancies. This is probably the largest, comprehensive IT recruitment site on the web. ...  Read the complete review
