Mini Rant

    Just spent the last 2 hours applying for a certain job. Whatever way it imported my CV, it picked up only some of the information, with no rhyme or rhythm to what it dropped which has no excessive formatting by the way. Imported some jobs twice and mixed up the order in others.
    Ended up even expanding on a few points, in jobs that were more related. Was just filling in the details of the last job I was to include in my submission when, the page decided to die on me.
    I have notice on a huge amount of online application forms that they are horrible at importing information, and often ask an inordinate amount of irrelevant information.
    As hard as it is to even find suitable role, I am left with a brain-zap each time I have to fill in one of these, even more so now that after 2 hours I no longer have an application to submit for a job that was only part-time and would require significant effort to even get to.

    Rest...go to bed. You've put together two solid paragraphs of perfect mini ranting that made me smile.
    Write them a covering note and stick an old fashioned CV in the post with a stamp attached if all else fails. Someone high up is probably bored and tied of the interweb as well.
