Ad Muncher

If you try to apply for a position at careers.us.samsung.com (or http://www.samsung.com/us/aboutsamsung/careers/ - the exact URL seems to vary depending on how you try to access Samsung's careers website) and click your way through the screens, you will eventually come to pages that feature boxes for you to enter dates. One example of this is the start and end dates for prior jobs. If you click on the little button that is supposed to make a calendar pop up, it doesn't work and the little javascript error icon appears in the lower left corner of the IE window. Here is the text of the error message:

The steps you provided aren't working.

I never end up at the right place.

My directions were not correct. Let me try again:

1. Go here: http://www.samsung.com/us/aboutsamsung/ ... lcome.html

2. Click on the link labeled "Search jobs" on the left-hand side of the screen.

3. Once the job listings load, click on any job.

4. When the page showing the job description loads, click on the "Apply" button at the bottom. I'm not sure what your policy is regarding registering on websites just for the sake of seeing how to improve Ad Muncher, but at this point you would need to make a dummy account to access the page that is generating the errors.

5. If you did make an account, click "Next" through the application screens until you reach the "Employment Details" page. Here you will find one of the popup calendars that don't work properly when Ad Mucher is enabled.

My policy is that the user reporting the problem needs to include a dummy account if they want it fixed.

I visit too many sites to sign up for them all.
