Job hunting is one of the most strenuous things one has to go through. Once you find a desirable job, the process of sending your resume and securing an interview can be another hurdle to overcome. However, one job seeker decided to take a unique approach to the application process. Instead of simply emailing their resume and cover letter, they went the extra mile and sent a hard copy to make a lasting impression.

This, however, is not the first time when someone got creative during job hunting. In 2022, a man in Dubai was struggling to find a job through LinkedIn. In order to attract the attention of potential employers, he came up with a creative approach. Guess what he did? Well, he started handing out his resume with a chocolate bar and a note at traffic signals in Dubai. The note stapled to the resume read, “I will be grateful to you if you help me to get a job. I wish you a beautiful day full of love and happiness.”
