Hello!
I recently took a chance on someone for my team who on paper had the right experience to fill a role I had.
Now that I am training her up it’s become apparent that her communication and writing skills are pretty rough.
Her work is poorly formatted, her spelling poor (and this is with MS Word), she writes in text speak and her punctuation is dreadful. She seems to have a hatred of full stops.
She told me that she believes the content of her work is what matters most and that grammar and punctuation come afterwards.
She is meant to be producing technical process documentation.
She even spells clients’ names wrong in emails to them.
I am being unreasonable?
Gahhhh
