Closed Withdraw Universal Jobmatch in its current form.

Closed on

Job Seekers are constantly being illegally pressured into opening/using Universal Jobmatch - despite the fact many Job Seekers do not trust it. In addition, many Job Search Providers do not trust Universal Jobmatch either!

Simple changes to the design of Universal Jobmatch can aleviate this:

Universal Jobmatch (UJ) is not fit for the purpose for which it was designed: it needs a thorough re-design so that employers cannot post vacancies anonymously - 33% of all vacancies posted on Universal Jobmatch do not exist at all!

Full name and address details for all vacancies must be included, along with a link to the employers' details on the Companies House website - where a role is advertised by an Agency, these details must be those of the Client.

Simple changes that can improve UJ!
