Subject: RE: UKNM: Skills shortage? No. Investment shortage? yes

Maybe - but at least it demonstrates that the prospective candidate has
taken the intitiative to try to find out something out about the company
they are applying for.

The number of people I've interviewed that haven't :

a. looked at the company's website (and this is for jobs directly related to
working in new media)
b. read or even made an attempt to get hold of the media pack (if the job
was with a meda owner)

beggars belief.....

Cheers,

D.
