The standard of job applicants has gone down in the last few years.Originally Posted by Burney
One girl lists under Key Skills 'Journalist for Fandom Wikia' (????), as well as 'Emotional intelligence' and
'Passionate Cosplayer and Pop Culture enthusiast' (????????).
Meanwhile, straight after claiming she has 'Keen attention to detail', she says she has 'Exceptional skills in Microsoft Office and Abode Systems'
This girl has an MA and has spent five years in higher education.
Another genius felt the need to tell me his 'Ethnic background' was 'Caucasion' and list his 'Religion' as 'None'.
Yet another applied for a job in journalism and gave as the first line in his application 'I am looking for a job to further a career in computing/software development'.
I despair.
The good people are kept by their current companies and the rest just churn and then die and are generally replaced by fúckwits.
One of our graduates left after two months because, and I directly quote, "Work is getting in the way of my other commitments"
Which as far as I could work out were, something called, boxercise and going to lefty demos in London.
