Do people really write applications? I don’t know if it is different in my country or for my sector, but it has always been “here is my resume, I want the job”.

Have a feeling it depends on where you are/what you’re doing, but yeah - a lot of hiring roles require an application on top of a resume.

It’s one small part of why job hunting is a pain in the ass.

  An application that requires you to enter all the information already on your resume. Efficiency at it’s finest.

    Inefficiency is a feature. They want you to work in your job search.
    
    My previous company sent “exercises” that nobody reviewed, just to ensure people would not just click apply. At some point only a person completed the exercise, and the manager decided to send a second one anyway.
