To beat the problem of unemployment which is common among the youth of China, a young graduate came up with the noble idea of making himself a walking resume by printing his curriculum vitae on a T-shirt. This attempt to attract the recruiters left the netizens also delighted.

21-year-old Song Jiale had recently got his bachelor’s degree from Wuhan University’s School of Geomatics which is in Hubei province, central China.

Song was planning to do an internship before beginning his postgraduate studies, however, he was unsuccessful despite numerous applications.

He then took inspiration from the elderly local people who hailed from his hometown in Henan province in central China. He had seen these people walk around advertising signs.&nbsp;

Getting inspired by this, Song decided to print his resume on a T-shirt.

“With so many people on the streets, I am like a walking billboard, bound to be noticed by employers and HR professionals,” wrote Song on Xiaohongshu, which is China's application similar to Instagram.

On the front side of his T-shirt he got printed, “Class of 2024 looking for work, please see the back.”

Meanwhile, the backside was a copy of his resume which clearly mentioned his name, major degree subject, university, student activities and internships.

He also added a QR code over his photo to make contacting him easier for others.&nbsp;

Next to the QR code was written “HR people who are impressed, and any fellow graduates looking to network, just scan this!”

“Finding a job is as hard as finding a partner, let’s help each other out,” read the message.

Wearing this CV T-shirt, Song travelled from his hometown to Hubei by train.

<h2>Did the innovative idea help the man get a job?</h2>

The outfit did catch people's attention, however, he was not able to land a job immediately.&nbsp;

His images also went viral on the social media platform and eventually, multiple companies reached out to him.

Finally, Song decided to do an internship with a company in the apparel industry. His viral images played a major role in his acceptance.

“As soon as I got to the company for my job interview, a staff member raised her phone and asked: ‘Is this you?’,” said Song on social media.

The job market in China has become very challenging and the unemployment rate among young people aged 16 to 24 has gone above 18 per cent.
