According to the Beijing Youth Daily and the South China Morning Post, a young man was posted wearing a T-shirt with a resume on Xiaohongshu, a Chinese SNS.
If you look at his resume engraved on a white rebound shirt, it says that his name is Song Ji-al and he graduated from Wuhan University in Hubei Province, China.
It also says that he majored in surveying and mapping engineering and is about to enter the graduate school of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Along with various awards, hobbies, specialties, internship experiences, and graduation photos, he wrote down his personality and included a QR code for easy contact.
He also wrote an explanation, "'I'm about to enter the graduate school of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, but it's hard to find a summer internship, so I ended up wearing a resume T-shirt.'"
Citizens who saw this filmed or talked with him out of curiosity.
When his news became a hot topic online, several companies reportedly contacted him.
Eventually, he was able to get an interview at a sporting goods and clothing company.
He wrote on social media that "As soon as I arrived at the company for an interview, an employee picked up his phone and said, "Is this you?' asked curiously.
Netizens are advised to "work in social media instead of studying majors"", "Viral Content Talent"", "I don't want personal information to be abused." give a back reaction.
Meanwhile, in China, 11.58 million university graduates entered the job market this year, up 820,000 from last year, and the unemployment rate for young people aged 16 to 24 exceeded 18%.
