Aaaaack

I HATE the job application process! Why must I submit a resume and then fill out a job application stating much of the same information over again? Are they playing mind games? Is it just to show you that if they hire you, they own you and you must do whatever they say regardless of how pointless/redundant it is? Writing cover letters and resumes and the whole job application process ranks right up there with cleaning the bathroom on my list of things I would rather not do. But unfortunately it must be done.
