Help! Applying online for a job - but am stuck : (

I've come across a few application forms like that and sadly the end answer is if you don't have a degree they aren't interested and simply won't accept your application

It doesn't matter if you have years of relevant experience all they are interested in is if you have a degree. You could try putting you most recent educational establishment in and see if its just a generic form that will accept any entry, but tbh I wouldn't hold your breath.

What can you type in the OTHER box???

Other name of school?

Nope.

Crazy isn't it?



GTG, bye (and thanks people).

I hope you do come back, try this, it should work...

Put any date in the boxes, e.g. choose this month and year, same for the end date. In the box for 'other' put "This is not applicable to me as I have no degree", or something like that.

Ok I know what charity it is and you can type in dates you were at school then then under OTHER type other then tick the box anad save

EASY!!!

I have just done it on a job there on the site you are on

Towards the end of the screenshot, the application states 'Mark this Section as Complete'. Ticking the corresponding box and clicking the 'Save Details' tab: does this work without inputting details of education into the other fields?

Otherwise, I agree with the other posters, utilising the 'Other' or 'N/A' fields may work...

fingers crossed it works for the OP

There are some application forms that simply will not let you progress unless you have something to put in the higher education section though

I put Nov 2012 as the start date and then Nov 2012 as the end date, then put "This is not applicable to me as I have no degree", (no offence for using exactly that!), then voila - it let me click "Mark this section as complete", then when I went back to the summary page there is now a click here kinda thing to let me submit the application!

Thank you all so much!

:j :beer: :T :j

I will re-read it all when at work, then submit it! Cheers

That didn't work for me, I just kept getting: You must enter at least one education establishment.
