If you're interested in game recruiter and job listing sites, here's a massive list.

I didn't find much of it very helpful, but that's because I'm in a different situation.

creativeheads.net or .com works pretty nicely. Gives you updates of employers looking to hiring on a weekly/bi-weekly basis.

Polycount got me my first gig in the industry 5 years' ago

Just signed up with gamesindustry.biz just to see what it's like, even if it's just to get my name out there.
