Spelling and grammar should have nothing to do with getting this job.

You'd think that ...

However, if you make mistakes on a real application, they just throw your application away.

It's best to put as much effort into an application as possible to show how interested you are. To me it sounds like English may not be her first language, if that's the case, that's totally different.

I hate it when people complain about the standards of other countries that us residents have no control over. Miles, inches, feet, yards, gallons, pounds and all the other units of measurement were decided waaaaay long before any of us were born.

If your gonna complain, please keep it about current events and important things. Feel free to complain about our idiot for a president all you want.

Don't you know how our voting system works? The people don't actually vote for the president. The democracy is really just an illusion.

But back to the application, yes spelling is something you really should focus on for an application but when you are online dealing with people from all over the world, a few miss-spelled words here and there while on the job is not that big of a deal. You should definitely spell check and grammar check your application before submitting it though. I did about 20 times before I submitted my Graal 3D one.

Lets just not get in to an argument about such a little thing. We all make some sort of spelling mistake once in a while.

Let's put the spelling differences to one side and forget about it.

@DarkLux - Cool. I don't speak Gaelic any more though. My mum is from Southern Ireland and my dad is from Northern Ireland. However, we live in Northern Ireland now.

I speak English now. Gaelic is just a distant memory fading away, really, lol.

Oh, and don't forget the spelling of Stefan and Unixmad... their grammar and spelling is terrible, so I'm sure there is some leeway for a few mispelled words here and there.

I think they both speak English quite well for having other languages.

Ok people, time to move past this. The European english came before the american english. We all know our forefathers were trying to differentiate themselves from their birth countries so arguing colour vs color is totally unimportant.

I have a great respect for those that can speak multiple languages even close to fluently but this is derailing Aimee's application so could we get back on track.
