Definitely correct, and there is a quite small percentage of real opportunities advertised.

Its more like this.
1) The government related jobs are mostly fake, cus its to pump up the news papers jobs pages to falsely show that job market is breathing. And we all know government jobs are internally filled by nepotism. (DEFINITELY 100% FAKE JOB ADDS)

2) Adds appearing on news paper by the private sector, are redundantly over published. The target is not only getting candidates but also getting better market position as a thriving company. For-example when they need one employee to hire they advertise for 10 positions, this makes them seem bigger and thriving then their competitors.

3) Internet job sites are just proxy of the same above. In Pakistan no company spend like those in Saudia and Middle east to get a candidate.

There are plenty of job sites in Pakistan that list jobs posted by local recruiters and organizations. Some of them are listed above. Another one is apnijobs.com

To the poster who claimed the job sites are scam, I would say that no place in the world is 100% legit and you will find scammers on craigslist, ebay and even some of the recruitment companies in UK / US are not clean. The applicants should do their due diligence and follow common sense. It is not safe to share personal info / documents or send money to the recruiters.
