This is a public service announcement to Job Seekers.
This green thingy says one of the following to a potential employer, "I am out of work." "I am desperate to find a job." or"I am not committed to my current employer."

Results-oriented
Experienced
Team player
Motivated
Creative
Thought leader
Out-of-the-box thinke...
