Either this or that — Indeed is pulling in from the job boards & Eluta brings in private listing. JobArray! happens to place itself right in the middle. It brings in the job boards & the private companies. The difference is that both Eluta & Indeed or its copycat (Wowjobs) need RSS/XML feed in order to bring in the new job listings. They are at the merci of the content providers. On the other hand, JobArray doesn’t require any RSS/XML feed. This means that companies can be added to its robot without any wait. JobArray doesn’t see any value in the short description of each job, it only keeps the job title and the hot link. JobArray also updates its database on hourly basis. JobArray’s interface is very simple yet powerful. Hope this helps.

Eluta’s search interface may look similar to Indeed’s, or even Google’s. The difference, however, is that all the jobs on Eluta.ca are indexed directly from the employers’ websites — no job board or agency postings are included. The vast majority of jobs found on Indeed and similar aggregators are from job boards and headhunters, whereas Eluta.ca includes only direct-employer positions.
