We understand, it can be super annoying to have to fill in a lot of details manually, especially when you've already spent time creating a good CV.

When it comes to how application forms are designed, it is actually up to the employer! They set up which fields they want to include, which questions should be asked, what is mandatory to fill in, etc.

It could be that they have decided you shouldn’t be able to attach a CV, but instead have made it mandatory to enter your work experiences one by one directly into the form, or they may have left it up to you to decide what works best!

If there are any parts of the application form that are mandatory to fill in, it will be indicated in the form, either by being marked with a red star or stated in the text. If no part is mandatory, you can choose what you want to send to the employer.

If you have any questions about why you have to enter certain information manually, why you can't attach a cover letter, or, for example, why you must answer a certain question, contact the employer who can answer your questions! 😄
