To make it worse, I am applying for both myself and my fiancé. He's in the restaurant mgt business, so there are a lot of companies that want an online app filled out. I'm in admin, so I have been pretty lucky with just sending a résumé in, with a nice cover letter.

Maybe someone in HR can shed some light on all of this business...
