CV-Library Job Search 4+

If I’m completely honest most of these job search sites are ridiculous. More often than not they push the higher jobs in your face which you haven’t got a chance in hell of getting as they ask for too many years experience which your don’t have. Furthermore jobs are repeatedly falsely advertised being local or near where your based. Only to find when you are in for a chance of a job it’s not even in the same town/ city. I’d say CV library is one of the better of these apps, but I’ve learned to not even entertain an agency. The app works well can’t fault CV Library in that regard.

As a recruiter, I always liked CV-Library for searching for candidates and it seemed like a good resource. However, from a candidate point of view, I have never had a good experience in terms of job alerts or searching for jobs.
For whatever reason whether you use boolean or not the relevancy of the search results that come back and also the alerts that are sent through once an alert has been set up, are very very poor.
Really wish they would sort this out as it’s been an issue for years.
Also for location, there needs to be an option for remote or wfh for those people who are unable to now go into an office for work.
It would be very helpful if the location could be showing where the business is based, but also with an additional field to show whether or not the role as hybrid or fully remote. this would really help in searching for roles that were off specific interest.

Really like this app. CV library have a really extensive collection of job postings and make it really easy to search, apply, save and share their job listings. You can save a search which is common sense (you're hardly going to be changing your search criteria every day!) but not all job apps/sites do this. My only bug bear with cv library is you can only save one cv. Now to maximise my chances of finding a job I have to be open to slightly different roles and contracts which I would prefer I could apply for with a specific cv that targets these particular roles but without swapping my cv over every time the app won't do it!
