Be Inspired by These Weird (And Wonderful) Job Ads
We all know the traditional job ad. There’s a section to describe the company, one for job duties, and another to list qualifications. But some companies have started in a whole new direction, and they’ve come up with some pretty interesting ways to do what we’ve been doing for years—target top talent.
We hope you get some inspiration (and a laugh or two) out of these highly unconventional approaches.
Anyone tired of long hours?
Hit frustrated commuters where it hurts.
The Gatekeeper: Thou shalt not pass... unless you survive the test!
A day-in-the-life preview makes the position tangible…
…while some exaggeration makes it interesting.
A bit of strangeness might be just enough to spice up an otherwise ordinary job description.
Greatest job benefit ever = Telepathy. Especially for a game designer.
Second greatest benefit = Minions following your every command.
Of course, not all recruiters have time to work out a fancy description.
But sometimes, desperation is strategy all on its own.
