CVs has had ... patchy success.... the problem was always the out of date info... and the clumsy search interface.
That is going to be sorted... so if you look for an osteologist with 3 plus years experience the only results you will get are those that are actually available for work, rather than having to wade through a pile that are either in work, have given up or whose email is no longer working.
Thats why it would have to cost... (quite reasonable for a years access - if you know that all the CVs are available) it takes a lot of effort to maintain this, it takes phone calls, and time..
Its up to the contractor though... I do chuckle though at cost questions... One recent advertiser was shocked at being asked for ?60 for an advert... well I said, where else have you advertised... needless to say the total spent on news adverts... ?3k + - but ?60 is too much... I am often told by Recruitment firms 'is that all?' but we would pay 10 times that. I keep it cheap and affordable, put in work 7 days a week ... come up with more and more... and still make less than a Supervisor rate. - Me Tetchy
and I don't even have an excuse.
I believe in fair pay.. but if I charged what BAJR should be making - I need over 4k a year just to pay for all BAJRs internet needs and phonecalls - then there would be a real outcry.

Sorry for whining.... but its good for me every so often.[:I]
Another day another WSI?
