There must be an online app God I just submitted my resume via a company's website. It was the fastest one I've come across. I entered in my personal info, uploaded my resume and voila! I was done. I did not have to re-enter all the info from the resume. Nor did it ask for a cover letter. Why can't their be more apps like this? Others take up to 45 minutes and when you are almost done their server craps out on you. So annoying!!!!

I wish I knew if it was all worth your time You know, spend a day behind-the-scenes of a HRIS? I would promptly come back here and report to you peeps if you should even bother completing all that crapola once you've attached your resume.

That would be interesting to see what goes on behind the scenes. On 2-3 of them, I didn't bother re-typing my resume in the fields provided because I already uploaded my resume. One of the worst online app is Taleo. Unfortunately, quite a few companies use it.

Just goes to show that employers are MORONS in a lot of cases.......

What do you make of this? Hi O. Do you remember when you could just send your resume as an attachment to an e-mail for a real job? Here's what I think happened: Really bored, over-paid programmers/DBAs went to HR and asked, "Do you want us to spend valuable time building you an HRIS? It would put candidate info into a large database that could be used for future use." Flattered to death, HR aquiesced and now here we are. I got this e-mail...LOL (I can't stand acronyms) what the heck are they talking about when they mention, "...with SAP (prefer MM/WM) experience The two others are SD focused, also functional, one needs to have configuration experience and the other needs FI experience. Please let me know if you would be interested." Huh?

wellll LOL SAP is an accounting software, HUGE applications that are often configured to suit particular industries/companies (somewhat like MAS90 & MAS200 are) - MM/WM is materials or warehouse management modules/configurations........Sd would be sales & distribution models and FI would be the financials Interested? Not particularly LMAO

ok. T/y. I'm sorry - I did a search and didn't get a clear pix of what they meant warehouse (data or like, a warehouse-warehouse). I've worked with SAP FI but, "implementation" and "configuration" is in a different league entirely. This would've-been job opportunity (I'm not qualified for it) found me, BTW, from completing on those damn on-line apps. or inputting my info somewhere. I wonder what the stretch between x-mas and New Years will be like? Its business as usual in most places but, I don't think the '10 jobs have opened up yet (assuming there are some! LOL!)

Now that sounds like the kind of company you would want to work for. YOu know Keep it Simple Stupid (or Keep it Silly Smarta**). Good luck to you with the job!
