When Everyone Suddenly Started Using “Impressed” as an Opener
25th October 2019
Last year something weird happened. I started to notice every other cold recruiter email opener has the word “impressed” in it. Obviously at first I was flattered that strangers were impressed by my experience. But then everyone started using this exact word in the same way and it started to feel really bizarre and fake.
Believing what a recruiter says is the first mistake.

Makes me think of the old, “Join the Navy, see the world!”
Well, at least the wet part of it.

To see the world;
And what did I see?
I saw the sea!
