Today's lovely replies.

I must preface this by saying that my requests for submitting typo free resumes is very simple.
1) no attachments
2) answer 3 questions

• What do you have to offer me that the next person doesn't?
• How many times is it acceptable to miss a shift in a 6 month period?
• What has prevented you from fulfilling job duties in the past

Easy, right?  Well, this is my first line of weeding out those that do not follow simple directions.  Over 40% of the responses are deleted for sending resumes as attachments.  The next 30% for not answering the 3 questions and then there are other deleted for the horrible pictures they send with the resume!

Here are a few that were deleted today:

•   I should be hired because i came all the way from israel, i know how to talk with people with a great attitude, i love to work with people -- and i like my job!!! (no resume or anything...just that sentence!)
• No problem 818-4XX-XXXX  (obviously it is because you follow directions so well!)
•  I should be hired because I have recent experience working at private events that including job tasks regarding serving drinks, and bartendening.
•  East Los Angeles Jr. College          Major: Journalism                                                
   Minor: Communication                    Grade Point Average: 2.8

That concludes today's post!
