Yes, I posted my resume in there, and i regulary get calls from employers. Its how you make your resume. I usually turn these jobs down, as i have a good job now..

UD,

I would advise you to filter your preferences to ONLY EMPLOYERS reviewing it. The staffing firms are annoying as they will try to get u placed anywhere so that they can make a commission and not place you in the job field u are seeking.

My first job was in advertising. I got the job offer with in 20mins after the interview.

Ah, those were the good old times of the .DOT COMs
