Personally I research the companies I work for before I apply
I write unique cover letters for each with a copy and pasted section about my skill set
I don’t think a poorly made application process has a lot to do with doing research on a company
That is, my issue is with bad software not necessarily shotgunning resumes
- dougmccune 9y agoThis sounds entirely reasonable, and honestly I'd say puts you ahead of many applicants out of the gate. The rest of the discussion on this thread turned into a debate about whether it's reasonable to expect a level of background research and effort on the part of the applicant or not. But it doesn't sound like that's what you were really arguing against, so we all just went off on a tangent :) I can easily get behind the idea that the actual submission platform/software should make it easy to apply.
