Hermit Remember... when you submit your CV online, you become just ONE line in their database.

miwashi I thought the applications go direct to the hr of the hiring organizations? Who sift through hundreds of CVs daily and spend 15 seconds on each one to gauge first impressions?

I noticed over the last 5 years I never got called for any interview that I applied for through this. Could be because my qualifications are not good, but I noticed those interviews I got called for are all those where I applied directly through email, where I attached a CV in word format together with the application form.

Has anyone got called for interviews for jobs that they applied for on VOG with no additional CV attachment used?
It has been "transformed", as they say. Ask yourself, are there tens of thousands of people like me applying? And how many people are manning the system?
