version of the personal statement (this is the bit i made the mistake on) and added a cv and covering letter to my application form. i explained to the receptionist, that there is mistakes in the personal statement, but she said not to worry and have you included your cv and a covering letter and i said yes i have and phone numbers are on the cv. i was trying to make a good impression on the receptionist, because if she's likes me, she may give me a good word.

In most companies it's usually the receptionist who knows EVERYTHING thats going on! So they're definately the ones to get in with!

Don't be fooled by the previous answer, receptionists may know everything but they have no power when appointing staff.
I can assure you that poor spelling and punctuation on an application for any job which involves using written English, especially communicating with customers or others outside the company, creates a poor impression and will drop you to the bottom of the pile.

You seem to have covered yourself there with the receptionist very astute of you - good luck and if you get an interview you could mention that you are pleased the receptionist explained about your error. Shows you have reconigtion of all levels and that you had corrected your mistake.

Were there typed mistakes in the personal page, or was the information not exactly true. If there are typos, I would suggest that before you submit your next cover letter, that you run the spell checker in Word. Also, have someone else proofread what you wrote. If the information is incorrect, correct it, as lying on a resume is never a good thing!

I frequently have a similar leftovers and many times throw them which includes approximately 4 cups of cooked noodles, a can of cream of mushroom soup, a million/4 cup milk, chopped cilantro or parsley, a million/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese and extra seasonings (in keeping with how nicely your rooster filling is pro) which includes taco seasoning, chili powder, black powder, garlic, and so on. Stir each and every thing jointly and bake at 350* approximately 20 minutes. get rid of, stir, then real with one extra a million/2-a million cup shredded cheddar cheese and bake one extra 10 minutes. delight in! (pssst, no one will understand you're applying leftovers...that's going to be like an entire new meal)

Aaaand what is your question?
Attention to detail is an important part of any job. One would be foolish to show mistakes on a document that helps you get one.
