Why, oh why, do support personnel never read, fully, the question/comments I write. Recent communication with 2 big firms have been appalling, looking like they scan the message and pick out 'key-word' and then apply a stock answer. Do they not realise FAQs only go ---- so ----far ?!
One issue has been bouncing back and forth for over 3 months! Problem with this one is, that even when I reply to their response, another advisor gets involved and it is plainly obvious that they treat the email as a 'first', and not appreciate that there is 'history'.

Vent 1:
And then we have the advisor comment; "I've explained it to you", "It's your fault for not understanding !" (from 2 other companies).
You're cat's have support personel? Isn't that you? And why are you arguing with yourself over it

Some people have been known to lie on their CVs. In my (very limited) experience at the interview stage these things have not yet been checked. Simple questions like that can give hints as to how truthful the CV is. They can also be an excellent opportunity for you to expand on things you've got or done in the area that don't easily fit into the CV....
