Thanks to reader (and outstanding colleague!) Jill Sommer for sending the link to this post from the blog “Resumé Hell” (amusing takes on job searching, written by a recruiter), featuring a cover letter produced by an online translation tool.

Actually, all kudos should go to Amy Beth Hale, Researcher Goddess (http://www.amybethhale.com/), for the link. Her web site has a really good blog about researching. We met on the ferry from Alcatraz at last year’s ATA conference, and she ended up extending her stay and attending the conference.
I love that story!! Amybeth’s blog is now on my feed reader; I love her post on “Is Twitter Overrated?”
Thanks — resume hell is wonderful!
