Default Can we make a list of Job sites ?

Myself as with a couple of others on here are sadly in the ****ty position of having to find a new job ...

I've been through all the google results and all the well known sites .. some listed below, but was hoping you'd be able to point us towards any of the less known sites?

I'm looking for IT support type work .. NW area

Job sites do my head in as recruitment "consultants" spam them, putting the same job on as many times as possible, and also put fake ones on them too just to get CV's on their books.
But best of luck trying to find something anyway

Just done a quick search myself - the amount of people asking for green badge ITIL is getting silly now.

Search for jobs in the UK. Online job search

IT Support - blimey not a good sector to be looking for jobs in, especially with another shed loads of IT gradutes having just hit the market increasing competition further still!!!

What skills and experience do you have?

worse than that...they do all the above, then ask who you;ve been to see....then call them and send loads of cv's to them in the hope that they'll earn some fees. meanwhile, whilst you may have been one of say 20 applicants for a certain job, you suddenly become one of 200!

Not mocking, just trying to make light of a poor situation.
Good luck with the job hunt
