Im sick and tired of seeing nothing but phoney jobs on all these sites, argh.

- workopolis
- monster
- govt of canada job bank
- job shark
- craigslist
- kijiji

Yes thats right, quite a lot of jobs are posting on craigslist and Kijiji cause its FREE! Does anyone know any other sites or ways to find jobs in the city? Workopolis and monster have been dissapointing me this year - it seems to be high end jobs for execs or people with 505 year master degrees and Ive been keeping track of the job postings on there and it blows right now! Heck, you cant even look in the Sun or Herald anymore to find legit jobs.

ANd Im sick of wasting my time going to these interviews, where the person after will literally gaurentee getting back to me and dont. So classless and unprofessional, people who think this is the way to run HR are out to lunch and can kiss my ***!

Is anyone else in my shoes? I know a few others and its so discouraging right now, I feel like crying.
Keep your head up! I was recently laid off at Nortel and approached it with a positive mind set, looking at it as an opportunity to move on to something new and better... but after spending about 18 hours a day looking/applying for work for over a month with only a couple interviews, I started to get a little down. Don't feel bad, it happens to every one... just have to keep plugging away and you'll find something eventually.

It took me close to two months but I finally got an offer last week.
