Couldn’t agree more @Lokstar , this is pretty much how I do things and receive the same response from HO’s. Being yourself is the best way to introduce who you are, in applications and in life. Not everyone will like that, or like YOU, but most do and it shines through in applications, exactly as Lokstar has said. Formal and job application type to me is an instant turn off. Be you, because that’s who you are
