I had a job seeker start an email with "Dear Mr. Hsiao," with an attached cover letter still addressed "Dear Mr. Nehme," whoever that is, and an attached resume that didn't even mention he was an MIT student in the 'Education' part, much less any relevant classes or skills, and that told me all about how he was 'one of top 3 math students' in 9th grade and '1 of top 6 English students' in 10th grade. Oh, and he loves to play the saxophone and "Works nonprofit as a Eucharistic Minister and Usher every Sunday mass at St. Joseph's Church Long Beach, CA." From MIT. Yeaaah. That's both way more and also way less information than I wanted to know. :)
