Everyone - #observations #grammar #spelling #punctuation #remindertobemindful #communication

I'm still fairly new to jobcase.com, but I am an active person who usually tries to maintain my professionalism as much as possible. Now I'm not saying I'm perfect. Perfection does not exist, and even I make mistakes on occasion which I try to catch on a regular basis to avoid looking like an idiot myself. However, I have to point out an observation that should be discussed. It's only a kind reminder.

The observation is grammar, spelling and punctuation.

I think it's important for everyone to know that there are important people that view your profile daily, comment and/or simply sit back and observe others. You never know who is reading what you write, and with that said, grammar, spelling and punctuation is so important. Some people really need to understand that writing is important as it shows what and how your written communication is like.

If you're taking the easy or lazy route to communicating in your posts like "Intervie", "u2" or you don't know the difference between "there, their and they're" or "are and our" or you write short one-line, vague posts leaving other people to guess what you're saying or what you mean, it is and/or can be frustrating. It's important to be specific and proof read everything. These are examples that people see daily, and it doesn't make you look good in terms of professionalism, especially if you're seeking employment in a world where communication is so important.

This is NOT to point fingers at anyone, but to remind everyone to be mindful in general, and know that you are being observed everyday. Read your posts to yourself before posting it, and if it doesn't sound right, revise it and re-read it again. How you carry yourself, how you communicate, how you interact with others all determines how you get ahead in life.

Good luck!
