Was going through old files

Was going through old files and stumbled on this one. Made it about 2 years ago for a client. They needed a hiring post for LinkedIn.

I shared two options. One was clean, corporate, safe. This one I did differently on purpose. A chalkboard. Pencil jar. A little plant. Felt more like someone actually wrote these openings up.

Didn't get picked. They went with the safer option, which I get. Corporate page, hiring post, you don't always want to take the risk.

But the client said something I still remember. Looked at this and said "this is something." It was genuinely. Like they could tell I wasn't just filling a template.

That's exactly why I made it.

Every time I sit down to work on something, even a simple post, I try to push it somewhere unexpected.

Sometimes the work that doesn't get picked reminds you why you do this.
