MG is following a proud tradition and trying some different ways of attracting attention to some Trade Me job opportunities.

I was given one of these this week:

It would appear the perfect candidate is somebody who hassles their colleagues, steals things and surfs porn at work. :-)

PS:

I still can’t work out why Trade Me isn’t inundated with people wanting to work there. If I was an up-and-coming web person in NZ it’s the first place I’d look, even if it was just to get some experience for a couple of years. There is nothing even close to it. But it doesn’t seem to happen. I saw a documentary this week which included an interview with Richard Taylor from Weta – he said they get many thousands of applications each year for just a handful of positions. Why the difference do you think? Do people just not realise how much they could learn from working at Trade Me?

Interested in your thoughts …
