Overview: Despite attention to letter-perfect résumés, meticulous grooming and perfect interviewing posture, jobseekers often undermine their candidacies for hire or promotion with sloppy language skills and inappropriate word choices. Shined shoes won't matter if you're constantly shooting yourself in the foot with your own words. Slang is sloppy and loose language can hurt your chances of being hired and diminish your value to an employer.
