on resumes. Recruiters hate them. Hiring Managers hate them. Heather really hates them. :) And others agree. I don’t think you’ll find a resume guide out there that doesn’t equate resume misspellings to the death of your candidacy. are typos and misspelled words all that bad? agree … As a recruiter, I don’t want to see a resume or cover letter littered with typos. I see this more often than I would like,
windows 7 enterprise generator key, and agreed … blatant and numerous typos do not bode well for your future candidacy. can overlook an occasional typo. It happens to the best of us. I,

So anyway, super dorky, yes … but did it make me a bad candidate? According to most recruiters and hiring managers, probably, yes. But is that right? the business of recruiting software engineers. Yes, besides being a wicked smart coding genius, a successful engineer should know how to communicate … at some level ... :) But is perfect spelling a requirement?

If your concerns are that the candidate lacks attention to detail or proper communication skills, probe further in this area. Was it an isolated incident or the beginning of a larger theme? Great candidates are hard to find so take the extra time to do your due diligence. the spirit of the holidays,
office Professional 2007 keygen, I would like to ask each recruiter and hiring manager out there to give a good candidate a break. Again, I don’t advocate pursuing candidates who clearly don’t proofread or spell check resumes, but mistakes do happen to the best of us. about it … how many job descriptions - written by recruiters and hiring managers - have you seen with typos? Hmm ... something to ponder over the holidays. :)
