View Full Version : Very Basic Application Question

This question may seem kind of dumb, but this is my first application and I don't want to screw anything up with it.
The front page of the application specifically states:
"If space available for answering any question is insufficient, use a seperate sheet of paper , attach it to the corresponding page and precede each answer with the number of the question being answered."
O.K. no biggie, though, when I attach this extra sheet of paper, is it more professional to staple it to the back of the page, or do I just paper clip it? I know staples can be a pain in the ass, but with paperclips, I'm afraid that you can easily loose the extra sheet. Which is the more professional route? Or am I stressing over nothing. (That's a given) Thanks.

I would say you are stressing over nothing. Paperclip it, and write your name and SSN on the blank piece of paper with "page 1 continued" or something like that. In case it gets misplaced, they will know where it goes. If they want it stapled, they surely have a few staplers laying around.

I agree with Mo_Trooper. Just use a paperclip and don't forget to put your name and SSN on the top so if it gets seperated they (your B.I.) knows where is goes.

Good Luck,

I always make a couple copies of the employment history section. It makes it alot easier for them to read your employment history in the same format as the first page of the application.

Thanks for the responses! Paper clips it is!
