There was this story on Nairaland sometimes ago about an unemployed graduate who spent his last £500 on billboard begging for job in the UK, the story has changed now as he's gainfully employed and using same medium to say 'Thank you'...

"He made headlines around the world after using his last £500 on a huge billboard advert begging employers to give him a job.

And it appears the ploy paid off after 24-year-old Adam Pacitti landed a position with a top media firm.

Delighted with his new employed status, Mr Pacitti has now used his first pay packet to fund another huge billboard in Shoreditch, London, reading: ' I spent my first wage packet on this billboard. Thank you for helping me.'

Mr Pacitti came up with the idea of the billboard advert after months and months of searching for work.

The billboard in Shoreditch, London, featured a picture of Mr Pacitti with the message: 'I spent my last £500 on this billboard, please give me a job.'

The story of the 1st billboard when he was desperate for a job was also posted here.
It's good to see a positive outcome from his 'hustle'.

He showed appreciation to God,the public,and his employer.

Nice initiative,he was creative,and it paid off.

Unlike some people who would be blaming the witches in their village for their misfortune in life.

if i were him, i'd turn that his website to a job directory website where employers and employee come to.

A business has just began.

Make Him Put Am For Whr Him Village Winch Dey Pass Na!! The Story Go Change Again!!

i read it sir, i'm just saying apart from the job he got, his website can also be turned to a business empire with the awareness it has gathered during the period he was jobless.

If its Naija, his first bill board would have been blown off by now.
No one would have given him a damn...
I thank God for him.

Watchout for my billboard too.

Wait oh!

It doesn't work like that here in Nigeria.

The only language our leaders/employers understand is VIOLENCE

The guy is creative, with such creativity and talent he should be his own boss....

i'm happy for him jare!

IF U BLIV,U CAN ACHIEVE

If man can do this for a fellow man just to get favour which eventually paid off how much more will God do to us if we give our all to him. It was a risk that yielded bountiful returns.

hilarious.
