Justpeople is an online headhunting service that allows employers to find and hire talented candidates.

In an online market swamped with 'job boards', Justpeople enables employers and candidates to find each other without the need for adverts. Nor does an employer need to trawl through a raft of CVs to find suitable interviewees.

The system works through a unique search facility that matches an employer's criteria with the candidate's qualifications and experience.

When an employer headhunts using Justpeople, they only find the candidates who meet their demands exactly. When a candidate registers their details, they are only offered jobs that are relevant and of interest to them.

Candidates who are used to replying to job adverts and sending off endless CVs will be pleased to know they can now use their time more productively. Once a candidate has added their CV to the database, they don't need to do it again. The candidate can wait for employers to come direct to them with interview requests and job offers.

The Justpeople user is also provided with access to unique and informative careers content, research and advice, providing them with a truly insightful look at different careers, industries, companies and leaders.

Headhunters and candidates aim for the same goal: bagging a job. But although recruiters can assist you in finding a position, you'll have to do some homework on your own.

Don't expect instant results from e-mailing resumes to leading executive search firms. Even top-level candidates report never hearing back about opportunities. Here's why the odds are stacked against this method.

TheLadders.com posts only jobs with annual base salaries of $100,000 or more. To search the listings, you must sign up for membership, which starts at $25 a month and includes a weekly e-newsletter on job hunting. Annual subscribers also receive a 15-minute resume consultation by phone. About 5,000 new positions are listed every Monday, and there are about 40,000 jobs in all, says Marc Cenedella, president and chief executive officer of the New York-based job board. Postings are taken down after eight weeks, he says. For a preview, the site provides free access to 2,000 job postings that are two-weeks old.

Netshare.com, an executive-networking organization based in Novato, Calif., also sets a $100,000 minimum base salary on the jobs it will publish. Membership in Netshare, which is a business partner of CareerJournal.com, runs from $37.50 a month to $395 annually. Members also have access to networking forums, in which job leads and other tips are swapped via list serve. The site adds about 75 to 100 new positions daily, says Kathy Simmons, Netshare's chief executive officer.
