Why do so many people focus on a C.V ?
My employer and many others use application forms in their recruitment process as this provides a consistent platform to collate the same information for each person that applies. While a CV is still very important to have, for us, an application form that's competency based, gives us the opportunity to ask the specific information we require and filters out those individuals more committed to the process.
I work in the 03rd sector and have spent this morning shortlisting applicants for a post we have available.
Out of the 17 application forms only two people have completed the form in a way that allows me to invite them for an interview
It's maddening because looking at the work history of so many applicants, we know that they are likely to have the direct or transferable skills that 'fit' the role.
