Would you have the guts, or initiative, to do this?
Job hunting can sometimes be a drag - spellchecking your CV and stressing over interview outfits.
But one man has made job hunting a bit more fun, by coming up qith a quirky way to grab an employer's attention.
He quickly became the talk of the office with his application stint.
Jonathon was looking for a job with a major UK print company and decided to get creative with his LinkedIn profile.
Showing his design and printing skills, he printed out a bunch of flyers of his profile and put them on every car in the company's carpark.
We’ve been well and truly ‘flyered’ by a candidate applying for a #job in our marketing team ? Every car in the car park is covered in flyers linking to the applicant’s Linkedin profile! That’s definitely one way to stand out ? – Craig, Marketing Manager pic.twitter.com/vVPps8aRyG

It seemed to really impress too, as the Mirror report Jonathon was offered an interview right away.
The marketing manager Craig also shared a video of Jonathon in action, saying "I love it when we get a #creativejobapplication"

The Mirror also reports that Instantprint got over 140 applications for the position.
But Jonathon's creativity really gave him an edge and was offered the role and started his new job earlier this month.
The 24 year old apparently got the idea from a previous employee.
She got her position on the design team after having her photograph printed on the company's roller banners.
