In the MLA Handbook, however, Gibaldi finds that it is rarely appropriate to use italics for emphasis in writing research papers (95) and that In research papers and manuscripts submitted for publication, words that would be italicized in print are best underlined (94).
Follow-Up Calls. Wait seven to 10 days to call a potential employer after a job interview. If the employer gave you a shorter timetable, wait until the day after the date he gave you before calling to inquire about the position.
Report Abuse. You mean words per minute. If you want a clerical or administrative job that requires typing you need at least 45 wpm to be competitive. If it is a job with a lot of typing they will want 65 or more. That is just a minimum requirement for these types of jobs, but it won't get you hired.
