Which job boards are considered reliable for job hunting in IT? I know that career builder has a ton of spam and recruiters.

    Personally, I've used CareerBuilder, Indeed, Dice, and Craigslist.

    I use the exact same ones as above.

    However, even tho I get tons of contact from recruiters, I've never gotten an interview directly from a company. I'm starting to think it probably is my resume. =/

    I think contact from recruiters is inevitable when posting on those job ads. And if the contact is annoying, make a gmail account specifically for job searching.

    Good advice. I have a separate gmail account I use exclusively for job searches. It makes it easier to keep track of any jobs I actually want to pursue. I mainly use Indeed and CareerBuilder.

    Indeed. If you got Office 365 then you can use HT Rules to move those mails around. Some keywords send out a NDR straight away, where some, I want to keep for future reference, are moved into a "trash" mailbox. That way I can still use my proper email address, which looks a lot more professional than some random account, yet I am not being bothered :)

    I use Craigslist faithfully and I've landed a few phone interviews and a couple of in person interviews.

    I'm definitely learning this. Seems like it's the gathering of all agencies as oppose to actual companies hiring.
