Not to Be the Grammar Police, But...

As I am sure that anyone who has a resume on one of the mainstream internet job-search sites knows, there are those job recruiters who randomly select resumes to firebomb with spam on occasion. Usually the recruiters have a decent vocabulary, have a sense of what it means to sell their client, and almost always keep in mind that the person they are trying to recruit can actually READ.

However, there is the rare occasion that an up-and-coming company will send out a mass email to many different resumes, and have no idea how to write a simple sentence. I recieved such an email earlier today, and thought that i would share it with all of you.

*Note: The name of the company has been omitted to help protect whatever dignity their founders have left.
