Introducing The Boxman

While I’m on the subject of new graduates (check out my previous post), feast your eyes on the self-proclaimed ‘boxman’ below:



This jobseeker stood in Canary Wharf on Friday, wearing a huge sign urging employers to ‘think outside the box’ when hiring staff. He was getting a large amount of attention from passers-by when I saw him, and lots of them were asking for his card.

The young lad, who graduated from Oxford University this year, told me of his disillusionment with applying for jobs online.

I think he showed creativity in his approach to getting a job, not to mention a great deal of commitment by advertising himself in the cold. Legend. He can speak a ridiculous amount of languages too.

He gave me permission to take a photo of him – what a nice guy, I hope he gets a job soon.

If YOU want to give ‘the boxman’ a job, email him at hiretheboxman@googlemail.com.

And if you want to give me a job, email me at anisak1987@hotmail.co.uk.
