A 10-year-old girl at the White House for the annual "Take our Daughters and Sons to Work Day" tried her best to get her father a job, handing Michelle Obama his résumé after being called on during a question-and-answer session.

In a ceremony in the East Room, which hosted children of Executive Office employees, the girl told Obama, "My dad's been out of a job for three years and I wanted to give you his résumé."

The first lady was surprised, saying "Oh my goodness" before giving her a hug. She told the crowd that "it's a little private, but she's doing something for her dad."
