Today I received my first contact from an employer where I had filled-out an on-line application. I was starting to think that these applications were simply a cruel joke being played on the jobless of this country as it seemed that I just filled them out, got a confirmation e-mail that I had filled it out and then… nothing.
I know that this is way things are done now, but I really miss printing up my resume on nice paper and mailing it (in nice envelopes) to employers. I know it took longer and all that, but it just seemed more civilized!
