Why job seekers hate Monster

My Google alerts dinged me today and I discovered this post from a blogger who has begun job hunting again and he loathes the process Monster forces on him. If Monster wants to turn things around (they've had lots of problems this year) they are going to have to listen to job seekers like this one. The blog post has a bunch of comments with it from others, among the most painful quotes are;

  • "It (monster) was a HUGE waste of time."
  • "I’ve never had the impression that there are real jobs on monster."
  • "I am not a big fan of Monster. To spammy for my tastes."
Gee, you think Monster has a PR problem?
