When are job applications used by employers?
For many part-time full time and graduate jobs, employers use applications to screen potential employees; they use the information from the applications to determine who they are going to call for a job interview. For other types of jobs, applications are simply the paperwork the Human Resources department requires of all job applicants; employers often ask you to complete an application after they have invited you for an interview.
Why do employers use job applications?
Many employers use applications as a way of standardizing the information they obtain from all job-seekers, including some things that you would not normally put on your resume. Your goal is to complete the application as completely and honestly as you can - all the time remembering that the application is a key marketing tool for you in the job-seeking process. Remember that some employers will use your application as a basis for deciding whether to call you for an interview.
