Best Job Offer Letter - EVER
So, most of you know that I'm looking for a job right now. Well, yesterday I finally posted my resume on Monster - something that I really didn't want to do, but there it is. Today I've received several spam-like emails that seem to indicate an interest in my qualifications. My favorite just came in below.
Now, if I wrote a cover letter like this, do you think they'd call me for an interview? Based upon that logic, I think I'll probably NOT accept their "job offer."
NOTE: This is a cut and paste from the email. I did not modify it in any way. Also, I can't seem to cut and paste the visible HTML markup that is in my original email. Blogger actually uses these tags to convert the text to bold, etc. Note that the original has lots of HTML code.
FINAL Caveat: Bandai is a great video game company. I'm not making fun of them, just the recruiter (you know, in case they do end up wanting someone with my skillset.) And without futher ado:
From: Letter
To: me
