From the are-you-serious-or-delirious realm: Check out the job - TopicsExpress



          

From the are-you-serious-or-delirious realm: Check out the job application test below. This is supposedly a test for a media professional to run an online e-commerce news resource. So what do they ask for? Well, they want your WPM typing speed, a new and unique introduction for a post (as opposed to an old and unique or a new and unoriginal introduction?), an imaginary email to Jeff Bezos asking him to be on a podcast (uh, wouldnt you contact his PR people for that?) and a fun, cheeky product description (fun and cheeky - what is this, the Benny Hill show?). You will notice they dont ask for your resume, references, samples of your online work or any evidence of career accomplishments. This is a great example of how not to recruit talent!
