Anyone ever actually got a job from a Craigslist posting?
I mean come on I am more than qualified and these posts for things in my area usually say to email a resume. I have never heard back from one of them yet wtf! How does one get a job now days? Just emailed 2 more and if no response never again! Geez the ones who won't take assistance and want to work can't even get a damn job! I'm sick of it dammit!

Re: Anyone ever actually got a job from a Craigslist posting?
yes

but I live on a small island and it's basically the only way any jobs are advertised other than a posting on a bulletin board

Post in the resume section or the skills offered section or whatever they're called and let the spam come to you.

I posted as guitarist/vocalist and got two gigs in one month. Craiglist has actually gotten me more gigs than gigmaster that I had to pay 100 dollars for 3 months listing.

Yes. My husband is a licensed tradesmen and he got a job from Craigslist when we moved to Austin 4 years ago. We had only been there for 2 weeks when he was hired. He had one other interview that came from Craigslist during that time too.

You know that E-Bay owns a percentage of Craigslist now? They probably handle all the financial aspect of the business. Craigslist makes a ton of money through job ads and real estate listings.

Yup, 3 job interviews this month. Think it really depends on your city and how involved recruiting management is with CL.

Re: Anyone ever actually got a job from a Craigslist posting?
Thats becuase you are on a black list

I recomened a dual sim phone

Change your email for JOBS only regulary (Not personel one)
Change your CV format regulary
Change mobile number hence dual phone needed or spare phone.

Then you will get calls but dont be surprised when the NSA starts calling and pretending to be a recruiter. The also might ask you to do TESTS .

Just say no,,, if its a real job there will be a real person and a interview at the place to work. Any other places is scams.

Dont give away too much personal details what makes you easy to blacklist like Address, age extra


LAstly... You better off OPENING YELLLOW PAGES>
Send you CV to each company... Start at A an work your way to Z!!!

If that fails ... Start sending via the mail system.. Not email


;)

Yes I did! But it was years ago. Craigslist and employers are both a different place now.

It was my first office-based IT position and it was a really dumb company, but it gave me the industry experience to move on.
