Looks like I can change the form to automatically search for most recent, rather than most relevant. Not sure if anyone has a preference here?- Jaysen

Common mistakes on application forms.....

I'd be careful of drawing too many conclusions in your first post from your own experience. It's hard to know...- Jaysen
