Software Engineer Intern (Summer 2025) - Application Form Issues

Hi,

 

Sorry in advance if this is the wrong place to post - I tried looking around for any support regarding hiring but could not find any. I had seen individuals post questions related to application forms in the past on this board, hence why I chose it for help. Apologies again for the inconvenience!

 

I had been attempting to apply to the Summer 2025 position for Software Engineer Intern in the US (remote) via greenhouse.io (the link can be found here: https://boards.greenhouse.io/embed/job_app?token=6209859&utm_source=Simplify&ref=Simplify) - but when trying to fill out the "Company Name" field for each of my work experience sections, there was no input box visible for the field, and thus I could not submit my application by normal means. I'm unsure if this is a general problem or if it is only on specific browsers - so for troubleshooting's sake I am using Google Chrome - version 129.0.6668.90 of the Official Build (64-bit).

 

It was a bit hacky of a fix in the meantime, but for me to submit my application I just used the developer console and set the value for the input field manually - see below:

var inp = document.getElementById('employment_company_name_0')
inp.value = 'COMPANY NAME HERE';

To fill in more than one field, I just changed the ID appropriately - i.e. 'employement_company_name_2', 'employment_company_name_3', and so on.

 

Figured at the very least I would leave that there incase any others run into the same problem with the application and find themselves here - a pretty quick (albeit hacky) fix if you have any knowledge of JS at all, but hopefully this is something that can be fixed in the near future?

 

Thanks in advance for any reply / help - and my apologies once again if this is the wrong place for such a post.

    Could we share your email linked to this account internally so they can look into this for you ? 

     

    We can take it from there.

        Absolutely! I am not sure what email I have linked to this account (so I do not know if it was the same one I applied with) - but the email I applied under (in case it is of any use when looking at the submission) was [Removed as per Community Guidelines]

         

        Thanks again for the help!
