Advice for job seekers: part 2

I am still reading applications, resumes and cover letters for open VISTA positions. Here are two more pieces of advice for job seekers:

1. run a spell check on anything you send to an employer. I currently possess an application in which the candidate tells me about their experience as a "candy stripper."

2. if you cannot figure out how to complete the online application it is likely that you are not qualified for the job.
