Special Announcement: It is with deep regret that the management & staff of this website announce the passing of Employment National, a casualty of the Job Network. We sincerely request all patrons set aside 1 minute to stand (or sit) at half-mast in remembrance of this noble but failed endeavour to resist Jobseekers in their quest for any form of meaningful employment.
