Thinking Outside the Box From Inside The Box
Thinking Outside the Box From Inside The Box

..."being disabled has taught me to think outside of the box from inside the box."

Post this

New York, New York (PRWEB) October 30, 2013 -- How many times have you wondered just what would Jesus do, or saw the ‘WWJD?’ insignia somewhere? It’s an age-old question that may be as old as Bethlehem. What if you had the opportunity to hire Jesus? Allah Jesus Ali (and yes, this is his legal name), a Brand Strategist & Creative Director with an entrepreneurial background and over a decade of experience, has launched a job-hunt campaign whimsically titled “Jesus For Hire”. The multi-tiered campaign is designed to land Allah Jesus a high-profile gig and foster new relationships among his industry peers that bring about awareness of hiring those with physical disabilities.

Jesus for Hire entails releasing several streams of content including: a business, branding and lifestyle focused podcast called 'bReignstorm'; online classes with personal and business branding as the primary subject; and a flash mob picket demonstration outside the top companies with whom he’d like to work. By launching the Jesus for Hire campaign, Allah Jesus intends to not only land his dream job, but also (by making himself and the challenges of his disability public) make a difference and inspire others who are differently-abled. He hopes to inspire people who—at times—may feel like their disability puts a limit on how great they can be.

Allah Jesus, who himself experiences the residual and often painful effects of having hads evere Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis (JRA) and other joint-related ailments shares, “I know the difficulties of living a modified lifestyle well. However, being disabled has taught me to think outside of the box from inside the box.” Ali goes on to explain how RA now affects all of his major joints and skeletal system at-large causing limited range of motion. For example, because of the fusion of his hip joints and sockets, participation in normal activities, like riding a bike, is not an option.

According to an August 2013 report from the US Department of Labor (http://www.dol.gov/odep/), 20.5% of the workforce identified as disabled, versus 69.1% of people without disabilities. Conversely, the unemployment rate for people with disabilities is almost double that of non-disabled persons at 14.1%.Getting hired as a brand strategist or creative director is certainly competitive, if not outright difficult. Allah Jesus intends that with the Jesus for Hire campaign, he’ll catapult himself and his resume to the top of hiring managers’ lists at companies like Narrative_, Google, Imaginary Forces, Rokkan, Roc Nation, and Wolff Olins to enhance his chances of working with their brand strategy and/or creative teams.

“In my dream job, I want to use my creative, entrepreneurial and problem solving skills in a leadership position doing work that I love; which is building brands.” As he expresses his nervousness about making the transition from self-sustained entrepreneurship into Corporate America, he continues, “I’ve been building start-ups since sophomore year in high school! And I’ve done a pretty good job of keeping my bills paid working for myself. But, I know for the impact that I want to have, it’s important to make this transition.”

Allah Jesus hopes to follow in the footsteps of other well-known strategists and directors. “I believe that in order to be successful in this competitive job market, you have to target the people that can hire you where they are. So, I’m going to go right in front of their offices with a mob and picket them to hire me!” Allah Jesus landing his dream job is only the genesis of answering the question that will inspire his career over the next decade: “How do we use art, media, technology and design to create groundbreaking and inspiring experiences?” Will Allah Jesus finally give us the rhetorical answer society is looking for? “So just ‘What Would Jesus Do?’” For more information, please visit http://www.jesusforhire.com.
