Sentence on a CV, (WTF?) is it me?

I’m motivated to the highest degree and have complete adulteration to succeeding success in my life
Adulteration is, for example, adding Monosodium Glutamate to Chinese food, or cutting cocaine with baking powder; essentially making something inferior by adding some crap to it. And it seems this candidate has in fact made his application inferior by adding this crap to it.
"Succeeding success" doesn't make an awful lot of sense either. If you call him in for interview I would imagine you will see the following:
Hair Gel
Shiny Suit
Extremely large and flashy watch
Loafers with a very large fake buckle
HTH.

think it was mentioned earlier...
but maybe its supposed to be adulation
I’m motivated to the highest degree and have complete adulation to succeeding in my lifebut maybe its supposed to be adulation
Don't get it
adulation can be seen as overly enthusiastic as in a boot licker.
what I suspect it was supposed to say is:
I’m motivated to the highest degree and have complete enthusiasm/devotion to succeeding in my life
or something similar, but the tard used a thesaurus and kept going looking for the 'big impressive' word.

Point taken
The actual website, if somebody were on there, makes it fairly clear what we do etc.
I was just trying to provide some info for this thread.
Just while we're critiquing someone else's English, I'm not sure that (for the 3rd position) 'removalist' is a real word either, unless you're some awful Antipodean The actual website, if somebody were on there, makes it fairly clear what we do etc.
