Job Application Forms
In many cases, even if you submit a resume, you will also be asked to complete a job application. This way the employer will have consistent data on file for all prospective applicants. Also, your signature on the job application acknowledges that the information is accurate.

Job Application Rules
The most important rule to remember when applying for jobs is to follow the directions. If the employer tells you to apply in person, don't call. If the job posting says to mail your resume, do not send it via email. When the job listings says apply via a form on the company web site, don't email your application directly to Human Resources.

There is not much more annoying to hiring managers than job seekers who don't follow the rules!
