An unemployed man is embarking on a unique record-breaking attempt - to work in a different organisation every day for a year.

Jamie Dodd, a 30-year old father of three, is attempting to do 365 different jobs, one each day, for an entire year.  Dodd will start the challenge on 1 June and, unlike most workers, he will not take any days off, even at weekends.

Dodd is taking the challenge because he is undecided about which job he is best suited to and is keen to find his ideal career

‘Project-365' will involve Jamie turning his hand to a range of jobs up and down the UK and he aims to receive the daily rate of pay for each industry, regardless of position.

The attempt is being supported by recruitment website Monster.
