Do Online Job Applications, and Most Other Questionnaires, Make You Want to Yank Your Hair Out?

So, as I wait for my latest freelance project to mature, I find myself back on the job hunt.

In the process, I've filled out a lot of job applications, which helped me rediscover an important anthropological truth: People's lives are complex. If you want to learn about them, don't assume you already know the best questions to ask. See what I mean at: http://ashkuff.com/blog/?p=639

My questions for OAC: How many of you are on the job hunt? Do online job applications make you want to yank your hair out, too? As anthropologists, exactly how useful do you believe online job apps can really be, anyway?
