    I hate filling in application forms for jobs

    I always get stuck on the person specification bit -

    You should address the relevant skills, abilities, personal qualities, experience etc., which make you suitable for the position in this section, as they relate to the job description and employee specification.

    Please indicate here why you are suitable for the position you applied for.
    I mean honestly what the heck are you meant to put in there, I always try to do the least possible, which could be why I haven't had many takers

    You have to brag, exaggerate anything that makes ya sound wonderful for the job.


    Maybe you could try to imagine you're trying to impress some chick?

    Just put

    "Cos I'm fucking great, now gimmie the job cos no one else is as fucking great as me"

    You never know, it might work, they might admire your balls
    Thats an idea, you could get your nuts out at the interview

    Then they will say "Wow, this kid has balls"

    That probably isn't the best of ideas Jonno

    I am beginning to think it doesn't matter what I write cos I reckon as soon as they see I have ticked yes to a certain box they chuck it away

    Quite possibly.


    Tho I think mostly the way you get jobs these days is to have contacts.
