There are several approaches you can take if you are going to be unemployed and hungry for a new job.
One of them is Apply for jobs that have not been advertised. This is because not all companies advertise their vacancies.
Before or immediately after submitting the application, it is a good idea to contact the company so that you get a vote associated with the application. In addition, it is easier to refuse in writing than to refuse verbally.
Another thing you can do is kick yourself off the plane.
Open creative job application
Chris Serrano lives in Florida and found himself freelancing from his job as a creative director. But rather than hang his head, Serrano takes drastic action in his search for a new job.
Equipped with a cardboard plate with the inscription “Ready for Action”, he filmed himself skydiving.
The clip has been shared linkedin Where he wrote the following:
“I got laid off last week. So I’m going to drop in until I find a new job — literally.”
“If you are looking for someone who is creative, award winning, hard working, takes risks and knows how to pack an umbrella – get in touch.”
Job seekers have nothing to lose here
took off
LinkedIn is a social media platform used for networking, where job seekers share their resumes and employers post job vacancies.
It didn’t take long for Serrano’s post to go viral on LinkedIn. Since sharing, the video has received more than 49,000 likes and garnered more than 1,500 comments.
– I was hoping for the best. But I had no idea this little trick would be seen by so many people, he says in an interview with SWNS News Agency.
The mistake that “all” job seekers make
Black with a parachute jump
One of those who caught the eye in the video was Manchester-based businessman Jack Bigham who was quick to offer Serrano a job at his company, Linkup.
It’s all done in the same spirit by Peagam as he is depicted jumping out of an airplane, equipped (in addition to a parachute) with a cardboard plate that reads:
“Hi Chris, sorry you got laid off. We have a job for you.”
Just like Serrano’s job application video, this one also took off linkedin With over 11,000 likes and comments.
Disappeared from a cruise – the video is confusing
I fell into free fall
Two weeks later, the duet was released New video where they jump together.
As they fall to the ground far below them, we see Cyrano sign his new employment contract.
Chris’ job advert contained everything I love about creative talent. Jack Bigham tells SWNS he was brave and daring and showed he wasn’t afraid to take risks.
Chris Serrano says he admires the support he has received from everyone who has shared his video.
– When I lost my job, I was a little nervous about what might happen next. But sometimes, all you can do is jump out of the plane.
