Why do I need to fill out an app if you have my resume?

I really cannot wrap my head around this one. So the potential employer has my resume, says everything looks great and then sends me a link to fill out an application!? Oh and it's going to “take 30 minutes to an hour to fill out” all the blocks that are literally already on my resume (and organized): work history, relevant skills and certifications, professional affiliations. It's ridiculous and disrespectful of the candidate's time, especially considering this business isn't even paying me for this tedium. Just needed to get that off my chest
