How Not to Apply For a Job

I own a domain similar to that of a mid-size Canadian medical group.  I frequently receive to them that is misaddressed. This one caught my eye.

Really?

  • "to hear from u"?  I would throw this away without opening the attachments.
  • Signature should match your email name.
  • "requirement" is in a different font.
  • Oh, that should be "requirements".
I could go on, but it would be more cruel than illustrative.
