This has been surprisingly useful. I went in expecting "LinkedIn but better formatted" and actually found a site that does what I need it to do (unlike LI). And with fewer scams and third party recruiters too.
I will say that anyone using it should check the current list of companies first. Because they're scraping individual company pages, they may not have a company on their list that you'd like them to check - if so, there's a form linked at the top of the page where you can drop the company's URL to get them added.
I've never applied for a job on linkedin, but when I'm looking for work I'll get all my experience and education info in there for recruiters to see turn the "Open to contact" banner on. I usually get a bunch of people contacting me, and secure a position from there. My job does work with a very specific program, though, so I might just get a lot of people contacting me because it's easy to search for that one keyword.

My crappy answer: Craigslist (depending on your area), Indeed and LinkedIn for ideas, then the company's own site for applications.

I've been unemployed for months and can confirm that enshitification has taken over all the job sites.

Not for IT, but Culinary Agents is legit for F&B.

Do not use monster. They got ahold of my info and never stopped spamming me with fake jobs years later.
