I dunno, I think I'd hire an assistant if her email was donkeypunch123@gmail.com !!!

I have probably reviewed over 1000 resumes. Actually, probably more than that, and I agree with everything your friend says. So much of this is common sense, but obviously not taken seriously, even by law students/lawyers trying to get a clerkship with a federal judge, which is pretty cool and you think they'd take the time not to mess it up, but you would, of course, be wrong sometimes
