Reeking of desperation

Desperate

This is a screenshot of a real title of a post on an alumni discussion site. I can't believe that this person thinks a plea like this is going to work. And if you're really that desperate, shouldn't you consider being hired as a contractor and not demand only a salaried position? If you consider yourself "top-tier talent" (whatever that means), you really shouldn't go around begging for a job. But maybe that's just me.
