Never heard of it. Maybe it's something for international potential-CM's?

I don't know anything about the grammar test, but some of the folks here on the boards should take one!
Thank you! I had never heard of it either, but I think it is just for assistant or coordinator positions. Positions that require administrative work. At first, I was a bit freaked out and nervous about it, but the more I think about it, the more I figure it will be pretty basic. Used just to weed out applicants that dont understand the basic English language, and who can't tell the difference between words such as their, they're, there, etc.
Anybody else??

They're cake. Assistant and administrative applicants are required to take a grammar test and a typing test. They usually look for near 45 WPM and decent grammar. If you know sentence structure, how to use spell check and some other things (such as the fact that there was no need for a comma in this sentence after the word 'check') then you're good to go. Don't forget, TWO spaces after a period.

Wow. I'd apparently make for a fantastic receptionist if qualifications for these sorts of positions require only 45 WPM.
This isn't truly necessary anymore and, generally, screws up the spacing built in to most fonts. That said, I still do it.

May I be your assistant? LOL.

Madison, you are correct. Computers are not typewriters and do not require two spaces after periods. However, I learned to type on a typewriter, and therefor continue to use two spaces.
