Spelling Error In Email. Big deal or not?
Just sent out a response for final round interviews for a finance leadership development program at a major pharmaceutical company on the east coast. They asked for dates and times for either this week (I got the email on a Wednesday) or next week to conduct the interview. I gave my availability for next week thinking that I would have a couple extra days and the weekend to prepare. Do you think that this was a mistake? Is it possible that I would get dinged for this? They said this week OR next week and since there are only two days left I didn't think much of it to just send over next week's.
Also, I made, what I believe, a minor grammar error. When I thanked them for the opportunity to continue onto final rounds I repeated "moving onto" twice. So it read as follows "I'm looking forward to moving to moving onto the final round of interviews"
How big of a deal do you think both of these errors are? Do you believe I will get dinged for this when they're making their final decision? Should I take some sort of corrective action?
I tend to get pretty anal about my grammar and syntax and everything so this was a huge hit to my ego and I definitely did not receive it well when I found out that I messed it up lol.
Don't overthink it. People make mistakes. Chances are the person in HR who is emailing you has no say in the hiring process at this point. That will come down to the FLDP director and the managers interviewing you.
