Locations

JobServe currently has primary offices in the United Kingdom (Colchester), United States of America (North Carolina & Ohio) and Australia (Sydney).

Jobserve has faced a number of legal cases complaints to the Office of Fair Trading brought by other websites that Jobserve has abused the dominant place it achieved in the market. On 15 December 2000 the High Court made an injunction preventing the barring of Association of Technology Staffing Companies (ATSCo) members from using the service.[2][3] Repeated appeals against this judgement were made and rejected.[4][5]
