Same here. They can find out what I'm like in a conversation, not an essay.
Its essentially expanding on the bulletpoints in your CV. Annoying but not the end of the world. I hate sites that want it reinput in specific formats for no good reason
Especially when the job is just some generic office job that you can get elsewhere. It's just not worth my time filling those in, I could have applied for 10 jobs in that time that just require me to upload my CV.
