As someone actively looking for a new job, I am getting severely frustrated by the number of corporate Web sites that now have an 'apply online' function that requires me to deconstruct my carefully-crafted CV into pieces that fit the un-formattable boxes on the web form. It took me over an hour to complete an application today. I suppose it gauges the candidates' genuine interest in the job though.

On a side note - darn fine IT Manager looking for a new home on the UK South coast - I'll email a CV - just don't point me towards a web form!
