It is true that you should try and get the spelling correct on your application form - first impressions are important.
The best thing for you to do would be to type the information on a word document on your computer. Then, if you use the spellchecker it will correct any mistakes. You can then copy the information onto your application form.
Good luck with your job search - you deserve to get a job and I hope you get lucky in 2008

Always happy to help - especially a Potter. (I grew up in Brown Edge on the way to Leek).
If you want any letters/applications checking, just send it in a PM.

Well use your hands to click the spell check button on the computer.
What Silvery Thing is trying to say is make an effort.
If you cannot be bothered to spell check youe application form then it is assumed you cannot be bother to do a good job at work.
May be incorrect in your case but that is how it works.
Good luck in finding a job and if you need to cross the Is and dot the Ts to get it then do it.

Find somewhere you want to work, write a cv and have it checked over, write a covering letter saying that your interested in working for the company, and ask if they have any openings. DO your best not to sound desperate, however hard that may be.
Send it to them, addressed to the big boss, if you can get the right address, else just to the hr dept.
Have you tried registering on monster.co.uk? I've upoaded my cv to there and have had several phone calls asking if I am interested in a position.
Personally the best thing I have done so far (I will be unemployed as of 15th october) was to go onto the Prodrive website, fill out their speculative appication and uploaded a copy of my CV. About a week later I was invited to an interview and now am waiting confirmation of the dates for a 2 week trial that they have invited me to.
Obviously I am in the fortunate position of having the skill set that they are after, but that approach can open doors that look bolted anywhere..
