There's certain degree of help even if you do not sign up for the premium membership, provided you have an excellent resume. IMO that does help as it will push your resume to the top page. But without a good and informative resume, whatever membership you sign up also no point as people would not want to invite you upon viewing your resume.

i got my current job via jobstreet but didnt subscribe premium (priority application). also i have attend many interview session when i apply via jobstreet
my opinion are, to get a job via jobstreet you need a luck, qualification, experienced and your performance during interview session.
good luck for your job hunting

Do not solely depending on Jobstreet alone. Sometimes, traditional cold calling & networking via your seniors are helping too.
Get connected with the RIGHT recruiters.

Based on experience, response to your applications may be slow. Don't be discouraged.

as long as u have nice resume, jobstreet is very convenience. If i update and open my resume, i will get interview call /mail spam in the following 3-5 days without premium.

PREMIUM features is like paying headhunters to find jobs for u, and NO GUARANTEE to get job. Might as well walk in to any headhunters office and pass them ur resume, FOC no charges.
