I've gotten several jobs this way, including the best jobs of my career. It's insufferable the way so many commenters here assume their experience is representative of or applicable to others. It's like if main character syndrome was a web site comments section.

- add-sub-mul-div 1y agoThat's not anywhere close to my point, it's not their stance I have any issue with. it's their mindset that their own stance is universal: > People should not do this. > It is causing so much suffering. > I have never gotten a job from sending an application into a site. > A form is not going to a hire you, a person is. You need to ignore the form and talk to a person. > I wish I could put this on a billboard everywhere. My experience is opposite to this but I'm not selling it as absolute truth or even giving it as advice at all.
