Thanks for you fast replies.....

I actually tried jsjobs but its too clunky to change...

I know sobi2 very well but find sobipro to difficult.

i actually love K2...

I thought I could make the directory with community builder... Have a employer profile and jobs adds category and a profile for job seekers

Theres 2 levels of access for job seekers (free and paid)
and 2 levels for employer (free and paid)

I am also assuming I can create a detailed search

and also create 2 different registration forms (one for job seeker and one for employer)

Then different permissions are granted (for example the job seeker who pays gets access to the search for jobs page)

Awesome advice....

do you reccomend K2 my problem is that sobi2 is not joomla 2.5

mosetree looks good.

Thanks again for your help....

So cbsubs can effectively give access to parts of the directory as well to the profiles of the people subscribing.

As well as enabling me to create different registration forms for different types of people.
