[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 318623, member: 6546"] I am so sick of having to fill out these computerized application forms!! Especially because my employment history and work experience does not neatly fit into a box. Today, I did my best to try to answer all the questions that didn't really apply to me such as: [B]May we contact your present employer?[/B] [I]I'm not working for anyone right now, so I guess the answer is "Yes".[/I] [B]If we contacted your present supervisor, how many times will he/she say you missed work this past year?[/B] [I]Ummm....there was no N/A so I left it blank.[/I] [B]How does stress affect your job performance?[/B] [B]a) It makes me work faster[/B] [B]b) It makes me work slower[/B] [B]c) I never get stressed at work[/B] [I]Ummmm....none of the above???[/I] So after filling out this questionaire the best I could--I received an automated rejection notice in my email. So, I am being rejected by a computer!!!! No human being ever even looks at my application or has the chance to ask me about my background or experience. This stinks :frowny: --DaisyFace [/QUOTE]
