"I am in search of employment and ran across a bit of a dilemma that I would like some Soylent guidance. After applying for a job at CareerBuilder, I received a follow-up email which requested that I fill out their on-line application. The first field, mandatory, was Social Security Number as part of their initial screening process. My question for the community is, how would you deal with requests like this as the initial employment steps?"

Wow, my experience in the last decade couldn't be more different. More and more businesses don't even solicit applications anymore. They contact a recruitment firm directly and outsource the short-listing process completely.

There's a big difference between a job search website and a recruitment firm.
