This site contains reviews of the job search sites that I have researched as part of my most recent job hunt. Since I work in Information Technology, my selection of sites is skewed in that direction but there are many general purpose sites listed as well.
A past employer provided some outplacement services with DBM as part of my severance package. They say that the vast majority of people find new jobs through personal networking, not through internet or newspaper advertisements.
Even if that is true, it sure can't hurt to get your resume out in front of lots of potential employers and to see what appropriate jobs are available to you and from which employers. Then you can put your network into action to get you a referral to the company or even better, directly to the hiring manager.
This site also provides references to excellent books to help you in your job search.
