It's interesting how first impressions count for so much in life.

I'm going to be hiring a couple of dealers in the next few weeks, however I need someone who can write well to help with the daily client newsletter. Seeing OP asking how to get a job but being too lazy to capitalise, writing on a forum as if sms'ing is a complete turn-off. Certainly not as bad as some of the Singlish one sees online but still, how hard is it to capitalise a few letters and do it right.

Additionally there were questions asked in the spirit of helping, twice in one instance, that were ignored. Any chance that I'd be interested has definitely waned as I read through the thread.

It may not be fair but chance missed, c'est la vie.

It's a way to get your foot in the door and learn the systems and lingo, and then you progress from there...

+1 to that, I certainly maxed-out on just such an indirect route. Furthermore, a lot of dealing jobs went to people who worked in Finance and Ops.

I saw a middle-office colleague of mine passed over for a trading job on the basis that 'No, he walks too slowly'. Verbatim .

When you're pitching high, little things count!

I've alluded to the same thing here countless times over the years on this board. This was a prime example that I've throw out there all too often. One never knows who is reading these boards. I've been invited to process interviews with MOM, asked to be on panel discussions on TV, I'm an HR Manager for a local SME, Strong Eagle is a business owner. You never know who is here behind the nicks, avatars & discussions. Therefore one must "always" put their best foot forward as you are always on display. This is even more important with the advent of social media. Many a reputation has been broken that way. Lots of careers are stillborn for the same reason.

Hopefully nasgirl has learn something over the past couple of days......

'Oh issit. I've not heard of them. Who do I send resume to, and what do I write please?

I have Master'[/quote

You'll work for a packet of peanuts and shares - that should do the trick......

I already did that, but I sold most of the nuts while they were still worth something (the rest are currently at c. 1/10th- of their peak.... sigh!

With the remainder ... .I'm torn between a completely unnecessary penis enlargement, or a mid-life crisis sports car)

The big unnecessary penis theory is all in the mind! Definitely the sports car, will attract more predators. I read that the famous George Clooney had his first orgasm climbing a rope at 6 or 7 he must feel very proud Stick with the cars man! The repairs are much more cheaper
