Decided to have a gander for jobs via jobcentreplus online. It appears that their new look website thinks that Cornwall is within 5 miles of my postcode ... i'm in Edinburgh. Go figure. It appears Edinburgh isnt in Scotland anymore. Well they could have told us that! Not just that it also threw up places like Kent, Exeter, Aberdeen and Shropshire.
Seriously though, whats this all about? Their systems are junk, really badly input information and generally shite. How is anyone supposed to find a job through that website if it constanly throws innacurate information at you, when you input the correct information.
Shame that because i liked the new look and ease of the website too.
Someone ( or some people ) should get there arses seriously kicked for this.
ETA: Did another search, this time typing in Edinburgh.. Apparently Livingston [west Lothian] and Gwent count as Edinburgh. I think i should email them and tell them to sort this crap out.

Actual vacancy inaccuracies are usually down to clueless employers giving dud info though.
