Re: PHD student desperatly need job

Dear Alexandra,

You will not get very far with your claim you speak the English anguage fluently if you make as many mistakes as you do in your writing (and even in the title; the word you want is not spelled 'desperatly'). Can you figure out what is wrong with your message? I've indicated at least some of the problems in bold.

J.

Re: PHD student desperatly need job

I am surprised you were able to edit your introductory message with a post count of only 2, Ms. Alexandra. Either the moderators exceptionally activated the edit function for you to correct your mistakes, or I have not quite understood the process of newbie accession to higher privileges on this forum.

Re: PHD student desperatly need job

at least I understood what she was looking for.

I think it will help her more, if someone points out the options/references for obtaining a job; rather then correcting her english.

Alexandra, may be you shall open a new thread for drafting your posts and getting your posts verified

If You could ...
Mind you ... English is not mother language so I won't feel so stupid asking why should I capitalize "you" ?

Thanks
