Jimmy,

Do you realize that you should leave a gap after a full stop, comma, or any punctuation mark. All of your posts seem to start the next sentence immediately after any punctuation mark. This makes them quite difficult to read.

The reason I mention this, is because if you are presenting this way on an application, it is unlikely to be considered at all. As you point out, companies have a great many applications to filter, and those that are poorly or carelessly written are invariably discounted at an early stage.

This isn't to pick on you particularly, as it seems to be an increasingly common practice. Internet forums are the last place you would go to search out examples of grammatical excellence, but there do seem to be a number of people who are unaware of how self defeating this sort of thing can be when it appears on their employment applications, as it quite regularly does.
