Did any of you see a new job ad that asked you to send two copies of your resume by email? Shocked Does this mean they do not know that you can send one and they can print two copies. Shocked Laughing

I have found that 1/2 of the copy machines that I've used in Korea are a pain in the neck and plagued with paper jambs. Why not force the applicant to deal with the faulty machinery?

How about this...

There's an online university in Seoul known as Cyber University.

They were recruiting instructors and specified that they would only accept paper applications sent in postal mail.

Not that I'd want to work there, but could you send a link? Smile

I think most, if not all online teaching position ads I have ever seen any place said they will not consider applicants whose degree was earned online.

Paper jam. It's a typo (notice how 'm' and 'b' are close on the keyboard, probably hit both accidentally).

Without hitting 'n'? Impressive typo, indeed.

Here is another one I have seen a few times for ads that required surface mail applications. You have to send an original photocopy of your diplomas. I have both made photocopies of my diplomas and photocopies of photo copies of my diplomas. They all look the same to me. Laughing
