From: Jonathan Katz Date: 22:09 on 20 Jan 2008 Subject: More jobseeker rants... I ranted earlier about hate for job sites that aren't properly configured.... here is some more hate. I know the prose isn't as sexy as other rants here, but I'm more frustrated. 1) dice.com. Thank you for providing captchas to keep out bots. However, once I've authenticated to the site I shouldn't have to answer a captcha for each time I update my resume or my account information. 2) etrade.com. Thank you for allowing me to upload a resume. It makes life easier. Your resume parser sucks, though, confusing what I think is a fairly easy-to-read resume, with different experiences and different companies put into various paragraphs. So even though I uploaded a resume I had to spend 15 minutes cutting and pasting to make my resume fit your forms. Additionally, I shouldn't have to switch browsers to submit a resume. I won't hate on you for not working with Camino, since it is in its own category. However, if you work with Safari I can't understand why you won't work with Camino. 3) disney.com. My hate for your website parallels that with etrade.com. You choose not to parse the resume, just accept the attachment, which is fantastic. Resumes are for people to read. However, after working with Camino and Firefox I finally had to try a third browser, Safari to submit to the job posting.
