When I fill in job applications that use tables (schools, universities and
govt departments seem to really like them)  I just delete the tables all
together and write in the document in the normal way.  Obviously I still use
the same headings etc that were in the table, I just dont see the point in
containing paragraphs of text in a box in a word processor.

I mean yes the boxes are all well and good if you are printing out the
application form and hand writing it...  or maybe putting it in a
typewriter, but otherwise I have always worked outside the box, so to speak.

And yes these applications did still lead to interviews, and in my
girlfriends case her current job (civil service)
