Girl Sings to Jon Stewart to (hopefully) Become Next Daily Show Correspondent

Girl Sings to Jon Stewart to (hopefully) Become Next Daily Show Correspondent 8 Flares 8 Flares Were no strangers to #HireMe campaigns here on Corn on the Job.  Weve talked about campaigns for folks wanting to work at Chipotle, Krispy Kreme, hockey sports sales, and even someone who just wanted to get a job in New York City. Today were sharing a video resume from Jannesse Davidson.  Shes hoping that her song to Jon Stewart will land her an interview and eventually, a job as the next Daily Show Correspondant. Take a look at her video and stop back for my comments below. Let it be known, I am not the most political person that this world has to offer, but the song kept my interest and I was inclined to stay until the very end.  A song is difficult to pull off and takes a bit of courage.  While its much more entertaining, you can also lose the audience quickly if the singers voice is lame or if the words used are corny/come off as trying too hard. Will this be enough to gain attention from Jon Stewart?   Well, all we know so far is that a video has been created.  What we dont know is, (and I will be following up with Jannesse) how is this video being sent?  Is she using social media to distribute the video and make sure the YouTube page is seen?  Is a link being sent in an email?  These are all of the questions that candidates must ask themselves when employing a #HireMe campaign. Its not always enough to just be creative and develop the content.  The #HireMe campaign must include tactics for reaching the target audience as well, which can take some extra time to do right, before it becomes a viral success. What do you think?  Will she get an interview?  Will she be hired?  What else would you like to see her accomplish with her #HireMe campaign?
