How to not get hired? Use Kijiji.

My 60 second rant.  Finding a job in this market is hard enough.  Don't hamstring yourself using sites that have stale job postings.  Job seekers using Kijiji are viewing and applying, with false hopes, to jobs that are no longer available.  Never, never, OK, one more time, never use a job site that does not get their postings directly from the employers.  When sites like Kijiji use third party sources to seed their job site, they have no idea when that job opening is no longer available.

 As soon as an employer removes a posting on entertainmentcareers.net, the email address assigned to that posting is eliminated.  The unfortunate people using this dated information found on Kijiji and applying to these expired jobs have applications that will never reach the employers.   Do yourself a favor, stick with the sites that deal directly with the employers.
