Looks can be deceiving. This guy seems pretty pumped for being in a deserted old office.

Spin a caption for this photo that is, surprisingly, not a downer and is actually a positive message about the current employment climate.

So you think writing, clever, catchy headlines is kids’ stuff? Play around and write a headline/caption for a recruitment employment ad that goes with this picture.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. In today’s economy, it’s more like 20 or 25.

If you choose them efficiently, that should be enough. See if you can come up with a concise, comical recruitment-related caption for this “unusual” photo.

Sometimes finding the right words is challenging for even the most creative minds.

See if you can rival Alstin’s top copywriters by coming up with a caption for this photo if it were in an employee recruitment ad.
