NEW YORK—Referring to the two months of contracted labor as an “opportunity,” online media company RazerWire posted a temporary graphic design freelance gig in the “Careers” section of its website, sources confirmed Wednesday. “We are looking for creative, talented people to join our team and help us grow,” read the listing for the eight-week, out-of-office position, which was titled “Designer” and contained a paragraph detailing the company’s background, mission, and company culture. “The ideal candidate will be passionate about interactive design and the RazerWire brand.” Sources confirmed that the job, which comes with no health benefits, paid leave, or provided equipment, also requires full working knowledge of the Adobe Creative Cloud and three to four years of prior design experience.

This isn't a parody, this is the last ten years of 'career' sites.

Sounds good, I can retire after that.

This is a scam, isn't it? People are so guilable these days, they shouldn't get away with this! Why is nobody calling the police?

Over-the-top cover letter expressing my excitement for the opportunity going out now

'25 years experience as an executive at a global marketing firm required $8/hr'

Do you think my landlord will accept 'valuable work experience' as a payment?

Lol. I’m literally doing a gig like this right now!! Them: we want to take advantage of ALL of your 25 years of experience but we want to only pay for 18-20 hours a week

You're on fire today

Last week I applied to be a freelancer from a listing on an agency's career page. And I don't think my situation is unique.

It's a great opportunity to earn a lot of experience, of course if you already have 5 years of experience in this field

Applicants must have 3-5 minutes experience with 30-50 feral pigs.

Only those who can fake 'passionate about RazerWire brand' need apply.

'So basically, we need you here about 50 hours a week & we're going to take all your ideas.'

Pay is 'exposure bucks'

Your desk nameplate is just Scrabble letters on a rack.

Is this even satire ?

Jesus, this hurts.

any career lasting longer than two months is a prison sentence unemployment is freedom

Gig Post?

Not satire

I'll only join if its an unpaid internship which requires 5 years of experience.
