The job application we all wish we had the guts to do
This will strike a chord with anyone who has filled out a job application in, oooh, the last decade or so.

It’s what we’d all like to do but, you know, never actually get round to. Who knows, maybe it’s what every prospective employer is waiting for someone to do.
Maybe.
Ugh, I hate this about applications. They make you fill out an hour worth of paperwork! It's my understanding that they do it so that they can use a program to filter out who's resume gets looked at and whose doesn't. 😑

I swear I would write the same shit three times in different ways. Like why do you need my resume if you're gonna do this?

Omg I hate that too! First thing you get asked is to upload a resume then they want you to basically type out another damn resume.

This guy’s got a theory.
sometimes, employers will do this to see how much nonsense you can put up with. I worked for a small company that made everyone take a math test. Graphic artist? Math test. Network engineer? Math test. It was useful to see how high/low maintenance people would be.

"are you willing to put up with having your intelligence, time, and labour wasted, and to repeat yourself with unnecessary make-work for free? awesome, you're just the kind of mark we've been looking for."

And this person’s got a better one.
No, you don't understand. I work in HR, this allows us to screen the 7000 applications we receive for ONE vacancy quicker because we know exactly where to look to find relevant info instead of wandering all over your resumes. And we screen you out when you answer like that, FYI

Whatever.
I feel confident you will get this job..
