Job seeker with MBA posts resume in taxi back seat

NEW YORK Are you talkin' to me about a job?

A recent MBA graduate who can't find work in his chosen field has resorted to

posting his resume inside the taxi he's been driving around New York City.

James Williamson earned his master's degree in business administration at

Philadelphia's La Salle University. Then he spent four months on interviews

while looking for work troubleshooting electronics, doing technical sales or

writing advertising copy.

When none of that panned out, he got his taxi license a month ago to help pay

his bills.

The native of Durham, N.C., says he posted his resume in the back seat of his

taxi as a last resort, hoping one of his customers might become his employer.

He says he's received a couple of business cards and supportive comments but

no job offers.
