Any user can review the full job announcements without registering, but you will need to register and create an account in order to apply for jobs located here (free, of course). One thing I liked here -- in this day of scamming the job seekers, this site has placed a warning at the bottom of all online listings reminding you that no employer should ever request your bank account information, and they provide an email address for you to alert them if you have any problems. Nice guys! They also have some very good career advice, so check out those articles.
- CareerSiteAdvisor
- Interesting service. You tell them what kind of employer you seek, or what kind of job, and where in the British Isles, and they return to you a list of employers with links to their career sites. You search those sites and submit applications, if desired. They also have a nice selection of Career Advice articles. They would love to have you register (free), which will allow you to save your favorite list of sites and get notices when new ones are added, but it is really not necessary. My only complaint -- some of the links to employer career sites were broken. Site Advisor Ltd., operator of this site, is a privately held company headquartered in London. It was founded by Keith Robinson formerly COO of Totaljobs.com and publisher of Personnel Today, and Simon Goddard formerly of Yahoo HotJobs & News International.

It is free for job seekers to use the site and to register (required in order to apply for the jobs), but take note that they will sell your information to other sites and services for the purpose of advertising. There are a lot of good jobs listed here, so I guess it is up to you how you feel about this.
