Title: It's no wonder so many people are out of work!
Post by: Deep Cleaning Solutions on January 13, 2013, 01:10:19 pm

I'm not going to tar every person out of work with the same brush, but i am genuinely shocked by most of the email reply's i have had for a vacancy. WTF is happening to this country ......

Just a few examples in their entirety -

 "i want this job"
"Hello"
"hello ive just seen ur ad on paper and  am intrested in this vacancy"
" I HAVE LOT ESPERIENCE AT CLEANING READY WHEN U R"
"could u please email the hputs please."
"I have seen your ad regarding the cleaning vacancy. I am just wondering if the person who does not speak English still can apply?"
"Hi, i am a hands on person ready to do anything how much do you get paid"
"Hi My name is Joao Rodrigues I am Brazilian and I am 27 years old. I 'm in England for a short time and still do not speak English, my wife is Italian and my documents are getting ready. Do you have some work to offer me?"
"HIYA CHAP iz it cashin hand??? ££"
"I need this job"
"i need money fast.email me"
"Helloo i offer cleaning servicesname is Dominika female  . i clean you thankyoou."

It's brilliant isn't it, i get many many emails like that, the best are when they phone you and can't speak a word of English, do they actually expect a job if I can't communicate with them.

The best I had was a cv that said:

Cleaning experience:
Never had a cleaning job

English:
Poor speaking, reading and writing,

Education:
Didn't go to school

References:
Never had a job

Obviously littered with spelling mistakes.

People keep sending me CVs on spec and to be fair the covering letter and cv are formal and spelling OK, maybe it's because they are emails. It's like text speak.

Telephone responses for leafleters can sometimes sound like a butthead and beavis episode. LOL

Sounds to me like none of them actually want to be hired, its just a requirement for JSA to appear to be applying for work...

 Hi
 My personal favourites are the well written ones with no spelling mistakes etc.

 They are from people who are so unemployable the job centre has put them on a workshop and they are made to apply.  They proof them thats why they are better.

 only prob is they use the same template for everyone so you get a dozen applicants six cvs are identical.

Had one woman once said to me she didnt want the hours because and i quote.

'dont you have to give some of that away,to whats it called,erm you know what the government steals.'

I think she was refering to income tax.lol


 cheers
