Here's an article about it: https://dev.to/maggiecodes_/how-i-applied-to-a-tech-job-using-a-post-request-193d
The thing that annoys me is the response. It should return status 201 created and the id of the new resource for future delete/update operations. Instead it returns 200 ok and some clear text. Wouldn't want to work with such an API.
I also notice that the job you apply for seems to be a different value than what is displayed on the page. Seems like the documentation needs updating as well ๐
