Also, whenever someone says they are looking for someone "real" i always think they are bitter.
I think "down to earth" or "level-headed" convey a search for the same sort of qualities without the added connotation of "unlike all those bastards that did me wrong!"
Hey I just got some spam in Swedish. I've never had Swedish spam before.
If it's in Swedish, how do you know that it's spam? Maybe you really have won the international lottery.
Or maybe it's a moose trying to apologize for biting your sister as part of a 12-step Biter Anonymous program.
From what I can make out they are wanting me to put my resume on their job search site.

Maybe, all moose speak Swedish after all.
Ah, so Swedish spam != Swedish fish. Good to know.
::crosses "buy Swedish spam" off grocery list::
That explains all the moose vs. car accidents in Canada and the northern states--the horn doesn't beep in Swedish.
You know that job I mentioned upthread? Turns out that they want me to start this Sunday! Easiest job "interview" ever:
"Hi, is this Richard? This is Kathy--I work with your wife, and she suggested I call you about the office job for Sundays?"
"Hi! Here's the address and directions, the first appointment is at 11, so if you could show up a few minutes early for paperwork, that's be great."
"Um, don't you want to meet me first?"
"No, that's fine--we'll see you on Sunday!"
I don't even know what they're going to pay me, but it's only for three hours on Sunday afternoons and it's not too far a drive. Even if it'll only net me $100 a month, that's fine!
I've never not gotten a pair of shoes from Zappos the next day.
I like the Hebrew spam I get. It's very decorative. Even if non-kosher.
