There’s a recruiting company that works in the same building as me.
I went to the kitchen area to grab some water and I noticed a young man writing a technical test required by the recruiters for whatever he’s applying for.
He was wearing a faded tweed jacket; under it a tuxedo shirt and bow tie.
The juxtaposition of those items say everything I need to know about him. Eager and hopeful, wanting to impress but lacking the traditional channels to do so, he comes up with his own form of expression. His clothes say ‘I’m young, hopeful, and naive, but I want this position, and I’m showing you’.
I hope he gets the job.
