Have you used job matching sites like Bintro, Trovix and Jobfox? I'm interested in hearing about your experiences.
This is for a story I'm working on for ABCNews.com.

I have been using Jobfox but have had better results in taking the job opening information and going directly to the company web site and applying through their system. I can think of two opening that I applied through jobfox and nothing happened but when I went directly to the company, I got an email and telephone interview with in-house recruiter.
Check out the link below, from wsj. While you are comparing these jobs sites, may be you could include ours as well - jobsbyref.com. Thanks.

Do not pay advance fees to companies who say they will market you to businesses who would be interested in you. This will not happen. At best they will simply mail your resume. Do it yourself for free. Do not sign up with a company that makes you go through the whole registration process and "set up an account" before they will tell you the price. If they have nothing to hide why won't they tell you this up front. Stay away from companies who after you sign up for the free account start sending hard sell emails about the “premium" fee based service and then start reducing the price if you decide NOW. Does all this sound familiar?

I should clarify that all my points were in reference to one of the companies you ask about.
