[jsfg_cinti] Re: The Job Quest of Bill Matthews

Dear Ellen,
You make a very good point and Mr. Mathews may want to heed your advice when he 
makes future postings to the Internet.  

My observation was merely that his posting was job search related and therefore 
appropriate for posting to the JSFG E-mail Mailing List per the acceptable use 
policy given in the FAQ.  I also had the intention of pointing subscribers to 
the FAQ so that they could read about how to use the mailing list.

Have a great day!

Regards,
Lance

One thing that should be considered is that all of the 
JSFG emails are searchable via the internet so 
potential employers could potentially read the 
JSFG emails.  So I would be concerned that the 
employer could think that someone else took 
and/or contributed to a screening test instead 
of doing it yourself.  

In my opinion, if an employer gives a pre-screening 
test, they want you to do it yourself.  They may just 
not have the staff or the time to monitor each 
candidate taking the test.  I'd think too, that it could 
backfire in another way -- let's say you get the job 
but then don't have the skills that the screening test 
was measuring and have more difficulty and take 
more time getting work done.  You'd be stressed, 
and the boss could get mad that you didn't have 
the skills.

Ellen
