The job search landscape has certainly changed. With unemployment rate at record high of 9.5% job seekers are definitely taking a different route to being noticed. Yesterday while browsing the web we came across a link that showed a picture of one such job hunter. Determined to grab attention from potential employer Leah Hannah went to streets with a sign and copies of resumes in her hand ready to go. We certainly hope Leah lands a job soon. A job seeker this gutsy and ready to take an unconventional approach to job searching certainly deserves a chance.

Good luck Leah!
