I think they are a waste of time. You might as well go to the Dilbert.com mission statement generator and get something (I'm kidding). Spend your effort proofreading your resume and writing an outstanding and error-free cover letter. Spend some effort researching the company before sending the cover letter. Don't worry about a personal statement. They can only hurt you.

I don't know. I know employers are looking for something different, not run of the mill on apps. I'm not sure what a personal statement is really. If you have achieved something that you are really proud of that is relevant to work I guess you could add that. Maybe a volunteer project or something, I don't know. Maybe even something goofy like winning blue ribbons for public speaking in 4H would work. I still don't know.
