Haven’t been to any job site in over 4 years now so the last time I had a discussion about them, I was a bit clueless of their current status. I thought maybe I can just ask my readers here what they think of the top two.
There were a lot of paid job sites back in the early days of the net. I specifically remembered Trabaho.com because it’s where I landed my very first job in 2000.
Today, it looks like only two paid job sites remain active — JobsDB and JobStreet. The fact that these two are part of regional job site may have helped them survived the paid world of online services.
Which of the two is better? Which one do you use more?
I’ve added the new poll on the sidebar for you to cast your vote or you can also share your comments below.
I work as a Recruitment Supervisor for a call center in Manila. I say JobsDB is a scammer!
For me JobStreet is the best
I also find this one very promising, the site says that it was just launched Jan, 2010
http://www.philjobspot.com
http://www.philjobspot.com seems growing really fast, considering it was just launched Jan 4, 2010, according to their site.
JobStreet is more user-friendly. Let’s not argue, it’s the number one online job portal in the Phils.
But then JobsDB rules in more countries across Asia. And I think they have also conquered Australia and the US.
Both sites surely have their own strengths. Choice is good as it allows consumers to get the best.

No mess. Just jobs.
you may also visit http://www.JobsPursuit.com It’s a new online job portal set to take over the needs of jobseekers. visit the website and sign up now!
based on a 2009 study made by our group, we’ve found out that though jobstreet overshoots jobsdb when it comes to local listings of both jobseekers and employers…
both lose their credibility at finding appropriate jobs for applicants since most employers (except for the bpo industry) prefer walk-in applications more than those submitted through jobstreet or jobsdb.
to quote one employer “applications made through these sites are bothersome to read.”
and it was also found out that companies prefer applicants who are more physically appealing despite the presence of applicants with better academic and professional records.
