Tweet your way to a new job

In a fast paced world where brief status updates are considered an ideal way to stay in touch is it any wonder that Employers may go the same way. TechCrunch reported a Craigslist job posting in Greenwich Village for a Twitter Genius.

We have posted the original requirements of the job below. So if your good on Twitter and can say what you want within the 140 character limitation you have a nice job in social media. Something that many Tweeple would like to have. Find a job doing something you do even in your sleep. As happens to many people

IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THIS JOB, FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW EXACTLY. NO DEVIATIONS:

(i) Email me two tweets. The first should be about your experience. The second should by why you're perfect for this job. If you exceed twitter's allotted character count, you're done.

(ii) Email me your Twitter name in link form (e.g. http://www.twitter.com/YOURNAME)

(iii) Tell me how many followers you have and how many people you follow.

(iv) Tell me who's the best person you follow and why (in tweet form).

(v) Tell me what's the best way to get more followers (in tweet form).

IF YOU DO NOT SEND ALL OF THE ABOVE, EXACTLY AS I LAID IT OUT, I WILL NOT CONSIDER THE APPLICATION.
