It doesn't matter what position a person is applying for the applicant should always try to follow the above tips. Thanks for sharing your experiences the sex answer was funny, but not very professional. Have a good one Morgan and thanks for stopping by.

You'd be amazed (or maybe not) how many adults (above the age of 18) can not fill out a simple employment application. When I was in charge of personnel, I found that at least 60% of the applicants could not spell words correctly and their penmanship was illegible - and these are people with a college degree. Beyond that, I was often asked what was meant by this or that question on the application. On one application (and I don't know if the applicant was trying to be funny) where you were asked your sex, the applicant said "not very often". Again, salient points, and something that all applicants, as well as companies should know. Jude - Great article.
