When marketing professional Lukas Yla embarked on a
new job hunt shortly after he moved from Europe to the
US, he knew sending his CV via email won’t cut it in San
Francisco’s competitive tech scene. So he opted for a
different approach.

Instead, the resourceful creative came up with an intricate,
but oddly witty, plot that included him dressing up as a
Postmate courier and personally delivering his resume to
employers under the disguise of a doughnut box.

To recreate the entire ensemble, Yla printed out an
authentic-looking t-shirt and prepared a pile of doughnut
boxes with the clever message “ Most resumes end up in
trash – mine in your belly” hidden inside the package.
To make sure employers can reach him back if interested,
Yla also included a short URL linking to his profile on
LinkedIn .

In a world where people send hundreds of resumes via the
Web to never hear back from employers, this goes down
as a win in my score book.
