So I’m getting really pissed off right now. Why even have a resume if every single job you go for as their own applications in their own format that must be filled in fully with every minute detail of your life.
I filled out an application today (still working on it - 11 pages) that wanted to know EVERY address I’ve lived in for the last 10 years. Apartment numbers and everything. How the fuck does that qualify (or disqualify) me for the position? If I lived in Idaho for a few years does that count against me?
But you have to fill it out because in LARGE CAPITAL shouts it says “THIS APPLICATION WILL NOT BE PROCESSED UNLESS ALL INFORMATION IS FILLED IN.” So now I’m thinking, do I really need to dig up all my old addresses? I don’t even remember them or have any records that far back. But if I don’t give them something will I be disqualified? What if I call the HR person and ask them? I know the answer they will give is a CTA so they won’t get in trouble.
I’m thinking should I even bother with this job? The ineffeciency in some of these application processes is very poor. How much money is lost coming up with these forms?
This sort of paperwork should be used for when you are in the final four or have the job. But to put every applicant through this process is a huge waste of time for everyone. (IMHO)
Well now I have a headache. I’m gonna go watch the last dvd of Elfen Lied.
