I work for a middle-sized software producing software for chemists.  We have 
been trying to hire a skilled designer/desktop publisher to manage the 
in-house development of our marketing materials.  This is not a small job -- 
the printing budget alone is well into the 6 figures -- and we really want 
to hire someone who knows what they are doing.

Unfortunately, it appears that we are doing something fundamentally wrong in 
terms of locating this person.  The resumes we receive are generally 
handwritten, typed, or printed on a dot-matrix printer.  They are often 
riddled with spelling and/or grammatical mistakes (one applicant insisted 
that she was fluent in "Mac Point" -- it appears that she meant "MacPaint").

Is there some best way or place to advertise for the person we want?  Any 
suggestions would be appreciated, since our current methods clearly are not 
working...

Thanks!
