Completing on-line/or hard copy applications.

Activity Overview / Details

Many companies are going to on-line applications, some you may access from home, others have a kiosk where you sit down and fill it out there. However, there are some companies that would like the opportunity to meet you and would rather have you pick up the application at the job site.  If you have a master application in your portfolio, the online applicaiton will probably ask the same questions as your master application. It may also ask your driver's license information. Some work placements will ask you to fill out the application on the spot, so having a master application with you in your portfolio will better prepare you for filling them out. 

Read all instructions, make sure you are filling in all boxes or spaces nothing on an application should be left blank.  All areas should be filled in.

Check each page before you click on the next button. Check spelling very carefully. Some types of applications, such as Kiosk and online applications may not allow you to go back over your application, check it along the way.

Most online applications will allow you to save and go back to it several times within time period.

Be prepared for tests and/or questions attached to the application. Read questions very carefully, take your time.

Read all the fine print at the end of the application so you know what you are "signing" before you submit your application. These can include statements that references and credit will be checked.
