Funny, 2 minute video: Recruiter, fill my req by New Year's!

Check out this fun, short video we made about the challenges of December recruiting: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKFyDKv1ynU

Now here's a different kind of job posting (smile)

I love funny job postings. You can often tell whether a firm has an HR person - or not (probably the case with this one).

Here are some snippets from a craigslist posting (it is still live on the site as of today, but it may come down soon).

Intro includes...

• We don't want standard solutions; we want solutions so ridiculously unconventional that we shake the time space continuum.
• We want someone that can shine of truth. Illuminate Darkness.
• The Search for Truth will start with your Search Masterpiece. We just want to be there when it happens.

Requirements include...

• 3+ years experience developing in C and/or Ruby with AJAX; or you can be one of those weirdos that refused to learn anything past Fortran
• Proven track record of building Core Search Technology at another company; other acceptable places include: your garage back in Palo Alto, CA in 1998 or that dream you had.

Personal Characteristics include...

• The successful candidate will reject setbacks
• Childhood dreams of being a Rockstar are not necessary for this job, but we will question your humanity.

And my favorite part.
