It seems that Jobserve login is not working. To be more precise, the "accept cookies" button does nothing. So you can't accept cookies, and login is not possible. I've tried in Firefox and Chrome, both on Linux, both fail in the same way.

Everything was fine until yesterday when, for unrelated reasons, I logged out of Jobserve and removed the Jobserve cookie (in Firefox). Now I can't login. Anybody else getting the same ? NB. Caution - logging out of Jobserve in order to test it might leave you unable to login.

It works fine on mobile (Android 9/Firefox).

I hardly ever use the desktop version of Jobserve these days. The iOS app, though buggy at times, is a much simpler/quicker solution.

I don't use Jobserve much directly but my scraper scripts do.

Login and Logout is working fine (OSX/Chrome) but they have been fiddling around with their front page renderer these past months and it is not as stable as it used to be.

NorthernLad continually clicking on the refresh button is not helping.

Go on then, why are you scraping Jobserve?

I'm curious how and why you use your phone to look at Job Serve. Is it because you are on the move and can't use a desktop? Do you just save a cover letter and send it stock with every application?

I use the app and spam the same CV out each time. I CBA to spend hours tailoring every application knowing that it just gets chucked through a keyword search and ignored if I don't hit a 100% match

They're copying the database to upload the whole thing to Bobserve, before they delete the UK version.
