I highly doubt anyone even looks at online apps.

“I highly doubt anyone even looks at online apps.”

Ten years ago I was in H.R., and was Project Manager for instituting an online application system. It is impersonal, but all were printed out. All were reviewed by the Recruiter for that job.

What I don’t like is that when they’re printed, they all look identical because the doc fields are populated by the text the applicant submits. You never see an original resume’. I hated that because my resumes looked beautiful.

It made me know that when I submitted my app online, my resume looked like the Big Dope’s resume’ who pushed the “send” after me. Fortunately, grammar and spelling remain as they’re entered, so that can be reviewed by the Recruiter and weeded out.
