I'm assuming that got an AI to write the first one. I'm unfamiliar with the field of Complutre Science.

I'm wondering where to get that degree in Complutre Science.. It sounds like an interesting study.

the calendar is at least kinda correct, up to the 4th of June, where I think the one fell to from the twenty one of April above it in the same column.
Edit Admin
Pretty sure you can blame a human for the first one. I don't think AI usually uses a QWERTY keyboard. I don't think the typos are even a WTF, they're common enough that everyone does it. Sending out a job posting without proofreading, or even spellchecking, certainly is though!

"Our calendars are one better", others go to 10, but "these go to eleve"

Wish I could tell you, but I only have a degree in CompLuthor Science. I got it during my work at LexCorp.

My experience with recruitment is that everyone thinks the checks are someone else's problem. The manager writing the specification thinks that their HR are going to check it, HR take the view the the manager will have checked it before sending it to them, and the recruitment platform just posts exactly what they're provided with as it's not their responsibility to rewrite their customer's copy. Therefore, no-one actually checks it.
It makes for a bad first impression of the company to the potential applicants - if they can't get a job specification written properly, what does that say about how the company operates?
Edit Admin
What @Darren said, especially the last part, that it makes the company look bad.

I'm absolutely fascinated by the slop calendar.
