I would probably not use the job board, but have been actively watching the job postings here because I am seeking (NYC). There are many other job boards I already follow, and it'd be tedious to add another to the mix. I like that, interspersed with the lively discussions that make this list

Find out which recruiters get the highest bounty, make them pay a percentage to post and let everyone else use it for free. If you are going to profit from it your should have to put back, right? Welcome to the Interaction Design

At this point, we need to do whatever we can to increase the number of practicing Interaction Designers. Providing free contact between employers and seekers helps this effort. Job posters, if they have that kind of budget, will likely be posting to sites like Coroflot anyway. . . . . . . .
