Absolutely.  When I activate my resume online I usually receive between 10
and 15 calls per day.  As long as you specify that a potential employer may
view your resume, and if you specify the details of where you'd like to
work, etc., the calls/emails should flood in.

Yup.  Sites like Indeed.com work just as well.

I've been using job sites for several years without any problems.  Sometimes
a recruiter will get 'call-happy' when they want to speak with you ASAP.

As a caveat, I did have a recruiter show up at my home address to sign a
contract, even though I didn't authorize him to do that.  That was sort of
weird.
