    Nice Feature

    you can put your cv on jobserve, and activate it in a way that for people to look at it they have to request permission from you

    what happens ?

    they search for the skills see the outline of the cv in their search results, request permission to view the cv, you get an email from Jobserve requesting permission to view the cv and naming the agency requestor, you can then check them out if you are not satisified that they are an agency you would like to deal with you can deny permission to view the cv

    nice feature

        It is useful for firing off cvs to agencies - no storing copies on client machines and no firewall isues.

          I can't believe how an average agent, with a two-figures IQ, would be able to make a search on jobserve and even if they can, they are probably too lazy to do that. Better to fish for the unsuitable candidates who are willing to work for a lower rate.

            Franko,

            yes, have had it setup for the last 10 months and regularly get
            the request emails from noddy agencies and am able to simple reject
            the requests.

            very nice.

            Milan.

                  just think of all those Noddy little agents running round looking for the perfect candidate, finding your skill set is a perfect match and then they cant get in touch because you wont let them.

                  Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time

                    the difference being

                    noddy agent at big (ahem) reputable agency = ok

                    noddy agent at little gonna go bust next week agency = not ok
