I am torn on this. I want to agree with the logic. But many of the best software engineers I know can't spell or format English consistently. Of course resumes are higher stakes than code comments. But I care #1 that your resume communicates clearly to me what I need to know to judge whether you would benefit my team. If you typoed something, or your formatting is a bit wonky, even if I notice, I am not likely to care. (Obviously, an excessive amount of errors can demonstrate a communication issue.) Another aspect to consider is that weighting English errors strongly can introduce bias against many demographics. Rather, I find it best to assume good faith, that the candidate prepared their resume to the best of their circumstance. Only evidence to the contrary should hold weight.
