It's been ajaxified up the yin yang making it dead slow and unnecessairily so because previously it worked fine without any javascript at all. So, no, they've become quite useless. The closest to a reasonable interface has dice.com but the only non-stateside jobs it advertises require NOFORN security clearances anyway. Oh well.
