Today’s letter to a recruiting agency.
Dear Mr/Ms XXXXXX,
I am not writing to apply for the advertised position. I would like to point out excessive number of typos in the advertisement, including a mistake in the title: it’s “programmer”, not “programer”.
Other mistakes include:
- industties (industries)
- solutins (solutions)
- diffrent (different)
- qalification (qualification)
Low quality of English in the advertisement is repellent. It’s also the reason for me not to apply for this position. I believe that you can significantly improve the feedback once you correct them.
Kind Regards,
(my name)

[...] PS: automatthias has observed a similar phenomenon – mistakes and errors are also commonplace in a professional context, i.e. job ads. [...]

That’s great. Someone needed to set the record straight for them. The fact that it was so many of them; that’s just scary.
