¿What are the leading job boards in Israel? Please reply with URLs and
as much data/information as possible.

Dear Job Board Investigator, 

Few remarks on Israel. First of all, as a relatively small country,
there aren't many popular job boards, printed and not-printed. From my
experience there, the print media is the main source for job-ads (and
not any online source); there is no comparison to sites such as
"Monster.com" in Israel (most online job boards are a version of a
printed board); and most job seekers rely, in any case, on connections
("Vitamin C").

The following boards are all in Hebrew, as naturally, the "leading
boards" are all in that language.

"Leading" 
---------
These are the ones that have the most job offers in them; are widely
read and popular.

Lu'ach Ha'ir
<http://www.6382020.co.il/jobs/> 
Also published in a print version (by the "Ha'ir" weekly and a series
of local newspapers printed by Haaretz); the print version is
published twice a week. Also used by the portal Walla
(www.walla.co.il). Also activates a board specialising in the
high-tech branch:
High Tech Jobs
<http://www.hitechjob.co.il/> 

Lu'ach Yedi'ot Achronot
<http://www.ynetcenter.co.il/J/> 
Also published in a print version by the tabloid "Yedi'ot Achronot",
which is the most popular in Israel.

Lu'ach Ma'ariv
<http://www.maariv.co.il/luach/owa/job.search?add_city_in=dummy> 
The second largest tabloid in Israel. Also publishes a print version twice a week. 

Muvtal 
<http://www.jobs.muvtal.co.il/> 
Muvtal means "unemployed" in Hebrew, and the site is a "support" site
for those on the dole, including a job board.

Nana 
<http://jobs.nana.co.il/Employee/index.asp> 
Part of the Internet portal "Nana". 

AACI - Association of Americans and Canadians in Israel
<http://www.jobnet.co.il/> 
Job board in English, mostly for immigrants from those countries; but
recommended - as far as I saw - in many sites frequented by
unemployed.


Other sites include:

Great! Fast & 100% accurate!

Thank you for the ratings!

Thanks! only 1 question: I need to put in a ranking: ¿What's the
"Nielsen" of Israel?

"Nielsen" does not conduct website rating in Israel, another company, TNS, does.

I didn't find any rating for the job-boards, and you may have to order
one yourself.

One could only estimate, based on their general popularity survey on
sites in Israel. It should be mentioned that they still used, in this
survey, a recall methodology (which means that interviewees are asked
to recall when was the last time (and how frequently) they visit a
certain site:
November 2003: 
Shi'urei Chasifa le-Atarim Nivcharim (November 2003)
<http://wmh.walla.co.il/archive/94083-5.jpg> 

Notes on this table: 

Under the title: The percentage refers to the total users of the
Internet, among the Jewish population, adults (18+) and teens (13-18),
_every percent in the culumn represents 25,000 surfers_

Columns, from left to right: 
[site name's in English (no title)]; Nov. 2003 Teens % ; Nov. 2003
Adults % ; February 2003 ; Nov. 2003 total; [site name in Hebrew (no
title)]

The untranslated two last lines mean: 
"Sites related to Ha'aretz group" [meaning, according to the note
bellow, the sites of : Walla, Ha'aretz , IOL, The Marker and ON-LINE]
Sites related to MSN: MSN and Hotmail in English and Hebrew and of Start.co.il]

Political Guru: GREAT!!!¿Are you from Israel? I will put more
questions about "Nielsen Equivalents" in other countries.

JOb Board Investigator - 

I am not from Israel, but am able to search in Hebrew (as well as
German, and sometimes other Germanic or Semitic languages; I also
managed once or twice to get my rusty Russian out of the dark corner
where I pushed it).
