I once helped sift CVs for a client who had advertised for a marketing assistant. One of them was from a person with a 2:1 in English from Nottingham University. In their personal statement, they said that they enjoyed writing and that they had excellent attention to detail. The first page of their CV had 5 basic spelling or grammatical errors. They didn't get an interview.
