The key to obtaining the job you really want at the pay you want is to receive multiple job offers - and to receive them all at about the same time! So, how can a job seeker make that happen? Submitting all of your job applications at once would be ideal, but with each application taking 30 minutes or longer, that does not seem too practical. The next best thing is to submit as many applications as possible as quickly as possible. With a high-end sophisticated form filler designed specifically for job hunters, that can be achieved: the 30+ minutes per application can be dramatically reduced. The leading tool for doing this is the FillPerfect® Intelligent Form Filler™ from 2424 Software. FillPerfect is an automatic form filler that comes pre-configured for job applications. Straight out of the box, with no user configuration of keywords, it supports virtually all common fields found on job applications:

- name
- temporary and permanent addresses
- multiple contact numbers
- primary and alternate email addresses
- complete education and employment histories
- multiple references
- career goals
- travel and relocation preferences.

Most form fillers take the "one-size fits all" approach, leaving the user to configure key words as well as the data to be entered. Even worse, they totally fail to handle the biggest issue for job applications - multiple occurrences of items like past employers and references. Even simple keywords make most form fillers virtually useless when it comes to job applications. Consider for example the keyword "Name". "Name" on an employment application could be the name of the high school you went to, the name of a college you attended, the name of your previous supervisor from one of your previous employers, the name of your first, second, third, or even fourth reference, the name of your previous employer - for every job you have every held, or maybe just your name! Unlike other form fillers, FillPerfect is an intelligent form filler. It looks not just at key words and their synonyms, but also at their context, the same way a person does when reading through an employment application. This built-in intelligence enables FillPerfect to do an exceptional job at filling in job applications. Unique and job-specific fields that can not be completed automatically, for example, "Where did you hear about this position?", are highlighted automatically by FillPerfect so that they can be rapidly found and completed.

Using the intelligent FillPerfect form filler, four to six applications can typically be completed in the time normally taken to complete just one. Since more completed applications mean more jobs offers more quickly, it is clear why FillPerfect is the job hunter's software tool of choice. Even in 2010, job hunting still requires a lot of time and effort, but with an intelligent, powerful form filler job seekers can focus on finding job opportunities, rather than on endlessly filling out job applications.
