I have been applying for jobs since Monday. It is now Friday. Yea my head is spinning in circles. I don't understand why they ask for your CV/Resume and then ask you to fill out your information including education and work experience. Isn't that what the resume is for? Its exhausting. I have applied with Telecommunications, Publishing, banking, insurance, tax collection, universities, etc. Most of the positions are high end sales positions as they make good money and it can be a lot of fun if you enjoy the job.
For example, I applied with Scholastic Publishing, my friends in the US will know this one from their childhood. Pretty much every classic children's book ever published is done so with Scholastic. I think it would be a really fun job as I love books and I love children's stories.
Today I spoke to Ryan. Told him I miss him, like I do everyday....he told me he missed the Power Rangers. Men....what can you do. Haha.
I am off to have a pint at the pub here.

Scholastic sounds fun!! I don't understand why they ask for resumes and then make you write the same information over and over again. It would not bother me so much if it was different information but it's not.
Oh, yes, they all seem to do that. It takes a whole day just to do a couple of application. I have known some of them to take a couple hours. First you post your resume, and you have to edit that for every job and write a new cover letter and then you have to fill in the things that you already have on your resume, then you have to take a personality quiz, then a psychological test, then they want a blood sample, and finger prints..well maybe not that much, but you get the drift
