Send this to your HR director

Flicked through the job listings in your local paper or on Monster.com lately? They’re almost always uninspiring, visually boring and just completely lame.

Which makes it even more cool when you see a recruitment campaign that doesn’t suck. Check out this listing for the editor of a small Virginia newspaper (thanks to Mathew Ingram for the link). They got staff, critics and readers involved and presented the whole thing in a nice little web package. More than anything the site tells applicants about the culture of the paper and the passion of the staff. I’m sure they’ll get some great applicants.
