Filling out online applications
«

Is there a way to speed up filling out long Job Application forms? I have a laptop with windows vista and use (goggle) autofill when filling out forms, but it only includes basic info like name and address. The job applications all want the same info --very long, detailed application forms re. previous jobs, refs, etc. Is there a way to "autofill" more info on these forms (using shortcut keys or save block text or other method to clone long forms)? Because of all the little boxes in the employment applications, will I just end of basically copying and pasting (or dragging) even with shortcuts?

As the OP, how do I request the moderator to delete my post? I posted this question in the wrong discussion thread and I would like to edit my OP and post it in a different discussion. (I have learned that posting same issue in two places is strictly not allowed (oops!)

I advised you to contact the moderators, but it looks like someone else already has, and your extra thread has been deleted.
