Having said that the CV's that I reject purely through how they are written are the ones on a word doc with wiggly lines under the typos /errors that are then sent out.
Really? I do hope that you have your spelling and grammar checking settings the same as the poor sap who has sent you a CV.
Although how you would you know? ... and of course the same word processing programme as they use too.

It's bad enough that they would write in such a manner in the first place but as a parent would you let your kid send such a CV?
You are presuming their parents:
1. Care enough to check it, or,
2. Want to check it, or,
3. Have a reading age greater than their child.I'm not cynical I'm realistic

? MOS docs I can see the wiggly lines.....but I can spell well enough to spot any errors myself.0 -

Just pointing out that those wiggly lines are put there by your computer, not by the computer of the person who sent you the document.
....and of course documents you send out also have 'wiggly lines' put on them by the recipients computer, it all depends on the spelling and grammar checking settings in whatever word processing programme the recipient uses.
