Our Competitor Price Comparison successfully shows that we are the most cost-effective by far.
Looking at a 30 day job posting, Monster were the most expensive charging £199 per job. Out of Monster, Totaljobs, CVlibrary and Reed, Reed were the cheapest, charging £89 per job. We, however, were even more cost-effective, charging ONLY £60 per job.

With National Hug Your Boss Day fast approaching, it has been reported this year that 46% think it is NEVER acceptable to hug their boss.
A recent study conducted by TipTopJob went on to find that only 5% would hug their boss when their boss praised them, 15% would hug their boss on “hello” or “goodbye” but 19% would when they got a promotion.
National Hug Your Boss Day is being held on Friday 23rd August 2013. The day was launched back in 2008 to promote workplace relationships and highlight the importance of getting along with your boss/manager.
A secondary survey asked individuals if they were a “pro” or “anti” hugger. Corinne Hutchinson, comments, “A massive 73% said they were a “pro” hugger. So, given this huge figure, we are asking people to get hugging, get snapping and submit their photos online on our Facebook page. There is a competition running for the best hug this year.”
National Hug Your Boss Day was created by TipTopJob.com, an online Job Board with over 400,000 live jobs across the world. Please contact us for more information coz@tiptopjob.com.

In a recent survey conducted by TipTopJob.com, it was found that 40% of UK citizens could last 6 months or more on their savings if they were to lose their job. On the other hand, in the UK, the same number (40%) couldn’t last more than a month.
The findings went on to survey jobseekers and employees across the UK, USA, Australia, Canada, India and South Africa.
A huge 70% of citizens in India have less than one month’s savings. In Australia 54% could only last one month, in the USA 52%, in Canada 38% and South Africa 44%.
In India, only 10% could last more than 6 months but this was closely followed by 13% of individuals in Canada. In South Africa, 22% of people could last more than 6 months.
Across the world, with people being careful with what they are spending it is not surprising that there is not a higher % that could last more than 6 months. However, with the economic problems, in some cases maybe individuals have felt they have had to save their money in case they were to lose their job.
Mike Dauncey, comments, “A thought-provoking survey and interesting results comparing Country to Country. We will repeat this survey each year to see how the results may differ as time goes on. I am sure we will see an increase in the % of those able to last 6 months or more as time goes on.”
A recent survey by https://www.tiptopjob.com, the International specialist network of jobsites, asked “Is Linkedin more important to you than having an up-to-date Resume”. It was found that 53% of respondents reported that the Resume was still more important.
The 47% of those jobseekers who felt Linkedin was more important come from those industries more likely to be found using the networking site, e.g. IT professionals, Engineers etc. Those employed at a higher level are also more likely to be using Linkedin today, so for example, Managers, Directors and the like.
About 5 years ago, the percentage of jobseekers that think the Resume is more important would have been much higher. In 5 years time, however, it is likely that this figure will be much less with the rising importance of using Linkedin in most roles.
Corinne Hutchinson comments, “With the amount of information you are able to put on Linkedin about your career history and skills, some hiring managers won’t need to even see a Resume as it will just simply repeat what is already accessible. On the other hand though, some industries will never see Linkedin take over from the traditional Resume as those candidates will never use the networking site, for example, Health workers and manual Construction labourers. ”
What do you think? What industries do you deal with? Are you a hiring manager and have you ever just used the information available on Linkedin?
