My opinion on spelling errors as an indication of quality of the candidate has changed. I use to use it as a first pass approximation to polish, professionalism and to a degree education and presentation. I came to the realization that I'm not hiring writers, PR people, or salesmen. All things being equal, I prefer someone that can spell, but at the end of the day - my best performers bring a much bigger skillset to the table. Minor spelling is a nuisance, but no longer a show stopper for me... with that said, maybe I'm just looking for more people like me. you will notice my disregard for proper formatting and spelling in some areas as I honestly have better places to waste my time.
