Today I have been reading job applications all day in my first life. I have gone almost brain dead out of boredom. I never, ever, want to see the words "samarbetsförmåga" *, "stresstålig" ** and "utmaning" *** ever again.
Please give me your most solemn promises never to use any of those three words in an application for a job, especially if you think I may be reading it. If I could I would run all applications with those words in the bloody paper shredder at once. Instead I have decided to show those applicants who have avoided using those boring words my utmost favor
Oh, to try to tie in the post with the picture, if you should decide to send a picture with your application make it an interesting one. (And you do not have to show skin to make it interesting... but sometimes it is helpful...)
