    You are a native English speaker.

    You are ok to be paid through paypal. (no work contract for now)


    If you match at least 4 of the following bullet points:
    You have a reddit profile for more than a year or a digg profile for more than 2 years.
    You spend at least 4 hours a day on the internet and would spend more if you could.
    You can produce very well-written English articles.
    You are into social/viral marketing or have knowledge of efficient SEO technics. You are familiar with affiliate marketing.
    You have amazing search skills.
    You have already been a forum moderator and can spot trolls easily.You have not been ricked-rolled more than 5 times in your life.
    You are detail-oriented, can show motivation and enthusiasm and have an energetic-proactive attitude. You can multitask and work independently.You can work underpressure and (over)deliver.
    You are willing to actively participate in the success of a new web start-up and have an "entrepreneur" state of mind.


    This is the best job in the world. Basically, you will be paid to browse the internet the whole day !
    You will be asked to monitor buzzing news from various sources(fark, reddit, stumbleupon...) and manipulate them through our semi-automatic posting system. You will also be asked to write a few posts using our admin panel. You will have to bring a nuanced 'personal voice' to the news.
    Finally, you will be asked to do light website administration.
    The position requires a quick mind, nimble reflexes, and the ability to remain focused.
    You will be involved in the content creation of a brand new website, similar to buzzfeed (with a very different and neat design though)
    Bonuses for posts that go viral/popular (digg, mainstream media outlets, etc). Viral/Popular will be based on traffic to specific posts by you.
    Location: Candidate's home office for now.
    Starting early September.
    If you are interested, please pm me your name, a link to a pic of yourself, link to your facebook/twitter/linkedin profile if any. I also need a description of who you are.
    Besides, please include links to 5 recent news you find compelling, and a minimum 200 world post you think could turn viral(will not be published, you will keep full copyrights on this post-it is just for interviewing purposes)
    Looking forward to talking to you.
