Electronic job applications that require a signature

    Hi all,

    Any job I've ever applied for required a CV and cover letter so I'm not very familiar with job application forms.
    If you are required to complete a application form that requires you to type it, save it as a Word doc and submit it by email, what is the correct thing to do with the signature? Can you just type it or should you print your doc, sign it and scan the document? This might seem like a very obvious question but I've been getting differing opinions from my friends.

    I always print, sign and scan. Not sure if its necessary, but it only takes a few minutes so why not.

    Camscanner on the app/play store is very handy for emailing photos of documents as pdf's from your phone.
