If you’re on the job hunt and are considering signing up to a recruitment website, be careful! If you're looking for a job at the moment, it's no easy task.

So it's no wonder that many jobseekers, graduates in particular, are turning to the internet in order to find work. But while there are many genuine and useful job sites out there, there are also scamsters looking to make money out of desperate jobhunters.

 So what should you watch out for?

The first thing to keep an eye open for is sites that are after your money.

Dodgy recruitment websites reel people in by advertising seemingly great jobs, and all you need to do to apply is send in your CV. Next, the site contacts you saying you look like the perfect applicant, the only problem is your CV - it needs re-writing. Luckily the site can do this for you: for a fee, of course.
