I got a bit ranty last week... the bile boiled and soon a massive misive found its way into my editor. The first paragraph is below, the rest follows at the end of the link...
Over the last six months I have been winding my way through the recruitment channels of a range of organizations in search of a graduate IT position. I am now employed, and happy with my appointment, but my experiences with many of the companies to which I applied has left me with a reduced level of confidence in their ability to deliver high quality products or services. Simple and easily avoided mistakes have left a bad impression which may affect my willingness to send money towards these companies in the future. This cannot be good business sense, especially given the large amounts of time and effort which have been spent on making me think this, and may well cause you to miss out on a good applicant.
