I am looking for a job at the moment and am spending lots of time searching various online job search sites.

My favourites at the moment are [Monster.com](http://Monster.com), flipdog and careerbuilder, but what do you, The Teeming Millions, think? Have any of you had good luck with a specific sites?

I am looking for a position in IT (though I have limited experience) or something in banking. I do have some experience in customer service also, so I am looking in that are as a backup. There are a number of websites which seem to be aimed at IT professionals, but are a bit too specialised for me.

Also, does anyone know if these types of websites use the same resources or have the same companies post to them. I have seen several websites where the layout of the search pages are identical and the results are too. Makes me wonder if they use some central service or something.

This is more of an “IMHO” question, and I asked it a while ago [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=117652). Good luck in your search.

Since the question has been asked so recently, I’ll close this thread and direct further comment to the earlier thread, linked to by Darren.
