Heard of it. Tried it. Waste of money. They spam your resume to a
gazillion job boards, many of which are regional and Not Located Where
You Live, or specialized and Not Related To What You Do.
I paid for their service a few years back, at a time when I was
looking for steady consulting work and money was kinda short, and it
generated zero leads. The exposure was valueless.
Post to Monster and Dice, and to any regionally-appropriate boards in
your area, and then get out there and beat the bushes and network.
Getting a job from a job board posting should be a backup or auxiliary
plan, not the primary plan.
