Hi - just submitted an application for a Vacation Scheme and noticed that I spelled the firm name incorrectly (“Mischon” instead of “Mishcon”) in one of the answers - twice. Not sure how, I believe I made the typo once and autocorrect took it like that from there. Should I email the firm and apologise? Is it one door closed? Been pulling my hair out since I noticed
Anecdotally, some firms operate a "three strikes and you are out" policy for typos/spelling errors, and my impression is that this is the "harsher" end of the spectrum. As such, although not ideal I would not expect the two errors to necessarily result on their own in a rejection.
Also, like
@Apple said, you should definitely not email about it. If you email, that will not repair the damage that has already been done if they have already noticed the mistake. However, if they have not, you notifying them of the mistake will only hurt your progression chances.
