Good job hunting sites

I'm on the lookout for a new job, need to get out of where I am before things get any worse. I've looked on Hays, Monster and jobsearch. Can anyone recommend any others? Looking for IT/Telecoms if possible, as it's an area of interest. Problem is I've no training past a GNVQ I did in IT. Been at my one and only job for eight years now, so I'm struggling to get in touch with the current jobs scene.

Anyone got a good site they've used?

Cheers

Okay, ignore the ones in Kent etc. Just sign up to as many as you can. Set up a second email account and get yourself on there daily mailing lists. Looking for work is a full time exercise.

See my thread for loads of tips and helpful hints provided by the knowledgeable board members.

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll have a gander when I've had some food.

I've just applied for 3 off there. The problem I'm having is everyone (understandably) wanted experienced applicants. Does no-one train their own people anymore?
