Would You Rent a Billboard to Land a New Job?

Billboard image on her siteExtreme circumstances require extreme measures. At least that's what Pasha Stocking must believe. The 37-year-old single mother from East Hampton, Conneticut, lost her job in June and after trying all sorts of things to land a new one, she decided to rent a billboard along Interstate 95 in Bridgeport.  The sign says, "Hire Me!" and displays her website. Though she hasn't disclosed how much the billboard cost to rent, the bb company says on its website that a sign similar to Pasha's cost about $7,000 a month.

Would you rent a billboard in hopes of getting hired?
