Please stop asking me to write out every single work experience in addition to my resume

it honestly just feels kind of insulting. I will probably not be hired. I will probably not even be looked at.

I’ve spent hours on this resume for you, the employer. I come back to edit it every month or so so that you, the employer, may like it better.

And then you ask me to forget all the time I spent on my resume, because you want me to literally spell it out for you.

You want me to sit here and copy paste, with your clunky UI that will probably not even save my progress if the page is open too long, for 20 minutes, when you probably won’t even give me a fraction of that time.

Because… why? What will this do that my resume does not? Why do I need to apply according to your system? What is so special about you that I’ll give you this much time? And you want a cover letter, too? Does my time revolve around you already?

Feels so disrespectful to my time. I cannot think of one good reason I should sit here and copy paste every single job experience when it is on my resume already. Just read the fucking document I prepared.
