Well, I just started reading Scott Millers weblog, Gaming Matters and ran across this tidbit:

"...writing skills can never be under-estimated. For example, in a QA position, anyone who cannot write well will never advance. Good writing indicates higher intelligence and higher education, right or wrong. For example, we get literally hundreds of emailed job inquiries each year that meet the delete key almost right away because the person's grammar and spelling indicate that the person's education is below par, or the person doesn't care enough to spell check. If they can't spend the time spell checking, then they aren't going to spend the proper time code checking, or testing their levels, etc. A person's writing ability says a lot, so say it well."

I have to say that he's dead on. When I go through resumes, the ones with those kind of problems don't even make it past the first fast scan.
