Hemingway makes

your writing bold and

clear.

• Is your name Wi-Fi? Cause I’m feeling a connection coming on…

• Is your name Waldo? Because someone like you is hard to find.

• Are you a magician? Because whenever I read your Tweets about

cybersecurity everyone else disappears!

• Sorry, but you owe me a drink because when I looked at your code,

I dropped mine.

• Life without you at my company would be like a broken pencil...

pointless.

• On a scale of 1 to 10, you're a 9. But I'm the 1 recruiter you need.

• I'm no mathematician, but I'm pretty good with numbers. Tell you

what — give me yours and I’ll text you a really cool link about my

company.

• I may not be a genie, but I can make all of your career wishes

come true!

• If it weren't for that damned sun, you'd be the hottest Accountant

ever created.

• If your PM skills were a burger at McDonalds, I'd be calling you

“Project McGorgeous.”
