[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]For all the “land the helicopter” types[/b] — have you never in your life asked someone else to proofread a resume or a cover letter? Having a second set of eyes on something important before it’s submitted is very useful, and building in time for that is a good life skill for students. No one is perfect, and every good editor knows proofing your own work is the most difficult. Is it the end of the world if a kid doesn’t want anyone else to check their application? No, and congrats to them for their confidence and independence. A typo probably won’t ruin their chances, honestly. But having a parent or counselor or tutor or whoever look it over does not mean their are any helicopters involved, either, just smart people who recognize the importance of double-checking things. [/quote] Why even bother addressing that type?[/quote]
