Anyone use it? The postings look really great, but its ~$40 a month if you want to get anything out of it. I’m reluctant because I don’t know how reliable it is. I have seen mixed reviews online.

#2

Really? When I used it last summer it was free. Never got any responses though - but at the time I had 0 experience. The postings seem legit, but I wouldn’t pay for it.

#3

I used it (free) 2-3 years ago. Not really useful for my part of the country, but a friend of mine landed a job in NY that she found on Doostang.

#4

Hound.com used to be really good as well, but now you have to pay for it!

#5

try through efinancialcareers. Doostang is giving them for 14.95/month.

#6

Just use coupon code “wallstreet” when you sign-up

#7

I would *never* pay to see job listings …

#8

I got some interviews off of it before, but haven’t touched it since it went pay. I predict that unless it goes back to free it will probably go away within a year.

Not really.

#11

has anyone tried the site for the 100k jobs? its called the ladders.

#12

I am signed up with IvyExec which is similar - there is little value to these sites as the listings are simply extracted from other web sites - so when you attempt to apply to a position it takes you to Morgan Stanley’s Careers section, TIAA CREF’s, etc. - so what exactly am I paying for if I have to go to another web site to apply Waste of money unless you value a central repository - but can find that elsewhere for free in my opinion

I have been in the job market for 2 weeks. Seems like most of the Jobs are posted by head hunters, half a dozen have contacted me already, nothing fruitful yet. I mostly use dice/indeed/company websites
