It's worth as much as uploading your resume just to have to manually type it all in on the following screen.

10000000% ^IMHOdo this, search for "VP of XYZ region" find, connect, cold call, email, yell motivational quotes at yourself do whatever you need to do. Get the meeting with them, sell yourself and you can bypass HR / initial recruiting screen and get to the DM right away.

On the off chance you might magically stumble upon something that fits?

I've never known this to work, but how much time will it take, and do you think it will detract from other things you are doing in your job search?

I did a few of them, but wondered if it was worth filling out the general application for all. I am still torn, but when I get the chance I will pump a few more in there.

It will most likely go into a their recruiting platform. It can allow the recruiters to search through resumes with key words.

It wont hurt to do a generally application, but wont have the same success rate
