I think it is definitely DEFINITELY a big steaming pile of bullshit.

I'm assuming you've exhausted all the usual job sites?

Well I've signed up to that Jobsite thing advertised on the TV so maybe that'll come up with something. The problem is that the type of jobs I want aren't usually advertised, so I've been sceptical of websites really. They tend to only advertise executive-level jobs.
