Also, it's hard for a computer to parse a resume, and most of this stuff runs through a computer before a human sees it, so filling a form makes sure the data is correct.

You also don't have to worry about corrupted or unsupported files.

You're telling me that computers are sophisticated enough to drive cars and create new antibiotics but resumes are just too much? Nah.

If that's the case then don't ask for a resume and only have the form to input job history that can be easily handed over to a manager using a printable template.

It's lazy on HR's part and on the HR software they use.

Have you ever seen a standard resume?

They don't exist. Resumes are totally different for every person. Different document format, different layout.

The forms are for filtering. Ones that pass filtering, then the resumes will actually be read.
