I assume applying to 20 jobs online, filling out applications, I've done that it's basically a full time job. You have to fill out different job applications, because employers use different software or formatting for registration. Also tweaking your resume and contact info as well

Applicant tracking software is some of the worst for that as well. The same software will use the same URL for each business but require a different password, so there's no way for a password manager to tell the separate logins apart
