Now that commencement season is well underway, the find-a-job era begins in earnest.

The days of just throwing a resume in the mail are over, of course. You’ve got to be creative to stand out.

Jade Delaney wanted a job as an advertising copywriter, so she dressed up as “fearless girl” after sending a note to a British ad agency to let them know she’d be coming.

“I’m advertising myself as a determined young creative looking for a placement,” she said in her email. “Know the power of women in advertising. I can make a difference.”

She got the job on a one-month trial basis.
