Kudos for him saying “ensure” instead of the ever-popular, “insure.”

This has been done for years in various forms.

The determined dad kept striving, sending companies “edible” versions of his resume — i.e. packages of brownies featuring a QR code that linked to his website. No employers ate up the gimmick, but Pemblington’s luck changed when he won a contest to have his resume displayed on the back of an 18-ton truck.
