    My profile’s there, currently just collecting recruiter’s messages asking if i’m interested in totally unrelated technologies.
    Sadly there’s not much of an alternative. The other big contender is Xing but it’s made by germans to germans with ads in german so… they’re not an alternative.

      I also only use it to find jobs because it’s easy to find only openings posted directly by the employer. I won’t deal with agencies or 3rd party recruiters on principle, not least because they don’t know what they’re talking about and will send a bin man to an astronaut job if they can get away with it (armageddon_movie_but_this_time_its_a_huge_ball_of_orbiting_space_junk.gif)

      This looks pretty good - although I see what you mean about the preponderance of German jobs! A quick search turned up 2000 in Germany, 200 in Austria and Switzerland, and just 4 in non-German-speaking countries. So at least there are some! Maybe they’ll become more popular Europe-wide in time, I’ll keep an eye on them.
