Take a look around the site; the people, the examples, the clients. Once you’ve exhausted our site’s witty and gripping content you should now have some clue about who we are and what we do. Then ask yourself this question: “Do I put enough foot to ass to continue reading?” This question should probably be thought, not spoken. The answer; however, should be a moment of self-realization, and it's perfectly acceptable to turn to your neighbor and say, “Hell, yes I do!” or “No, no, I do not.”

If you're speaking these things aloud that probably makes you “crazy” and means you need “help.” People say we use quotes “excessively,” but we think those people are “bastards.” Had “enough?” Didn't “think so.”

There is a 98 percent chance you won't make it here. The work environment is set up to weed out the weak—our own twisted version of natural selection. But for those special few (do we sound like a recruiting commercial for the Marines yet?), here is what you have been waiting for: a job at a firm that doesn't completely suck.

Oh, and before all you out-of-staters start applying, we're not in a real habit of importing people...it's not that we don't think you're any good or that we've never done it, it's just kind of a hassle. So unless you're Seth Godin (good God please let Seth Godin apply!), you'd better have a plan on getting you and your studio apartment down here yourself.

Senior Graphic / Web Designer Position

JOB DESCRIPTION: The entirety of your job duties can be summed up in this rockin' song: Bigger!

QUALIFICATIONS & SKILLS NEEDED: For a long time, we were limited to using Microsoft Paint to do all of our creative work.

Senior Copy Writer Position

JOB DESCRIPTION: In the history of literature, only three people have ever made enough money to elevate themselves over the poverty line. One of them is J.K. Rowling (Harry dies at the end…). You will not join that exclusive club. Copy is dead. Prospects only respond to bright colors and bullet points. Nonetheless, some of our clients still insist on having a whole 10-page research report instead of a flashy logo and an executive summary. If you can do this, we have a job for you. We need some… Continue

Account Manager / Marketing Support Position

JOB DESCRIPTION: So take the Account Director position above and dial it back into the realm of realism for 99.9 percent of the U.S. population. We get it—not everyone has 10 years of marketing experience under their belt. Heck, you may even be pretty good at one or two things. We'll make your good at 100. The good news: you're not the one the client yells at. The bad news: you're the one the Account Directors yell at—mostly because they forgot how to do whatever it was that needed to be done.… Continue

JOB DESCRIPTION: Account directors handle client relationships. You’re the strategic component of account management. You will be planning and overseeing the execution of marketing activities on clients’ behalf, which is a pretty way to say, “When someone gets slapped, your mug is front and center." Glamorous, eh? Read on… QUALIFICATIONS & SKILLS NEEDED: - If you have to think about whether you are qualified for this position, you're not. Trust us. - If you haven't done this before, we don… Continue
