What happen to our business manner?

One of my business friends complains about the manner and the language the youngster use now a day. And I tend to agreed with him after he relates what happened to me. He received a few rude applications after he advertised the job vacancy in jobstreet. One of the applicants really triggers his frustration.

This is what he received.

Job application by email

He has no choice but to reply in this way.

I must say that in general the younger generation is different from the time when internet age is still an infant. Fifteen years ago when web site and internet is just for the small group of people, most of us graduate know or has been taught the proper way to apply for a job vacancy. At that time it was through by writing a proper application letter. A proper application letter will tell the different either we are in the successful list or they will throw away the letter.

In this world where the internet, facebook, twitters and sms is worldwide we tend to forget the proper manner and language in everyday basic business use.

It does not help when the government changes the method of teaching or simplify the education to allow more passes in the exam. This does not bring well education to the majority of the students.

No wander my friend is not happy with the current education.
