An unemployed university graduate has spent his last £500 on a billboard advert in a bid to find himself a job.

Despite graduating with a first-class degree in media production, Adam Pacitti has struggled to find employment and has resorted to unusual means to gain attention.

The 24-year-old University of Winchester graduate he will catch the eye of prospective employers and subsequently land a job, reports Metro.

The billboard promotes his website which features a tongue-in-cheek video CV.

In the video, Pacitti says: "As you can see from my email inbox, I have spent countless hours applying for jobs with no luck - which is why I have launched employadam.com.

"I am looking for work in the ultra-competitive, cut-throat and slightly vacuous industry that is the media."

Pacitti has already received thousands of supportive messages on Twitter.
