If you saw this, would you hire me?

by Miss Britt on October 30, 2009

(Hint:  the only right answer here is, YES!)

After much consideration and ample poking and prodding from Jared, I’ve decided to apply for a temporary travel job from TheBigTrip.com.

The deal is, basically, that you spend 3 months traveling – all expenses paid – and you earn a $50,000 salary for those 3 months.  Part of the submission process includes a video application.

I made mine today.

If you can’t see the video player, the direct link is here.

    You do look pretty sex-ay in the still, I must say! I think it’s pretty cool that Jared encouraged you to do this. :)

    @Angel Smith, me too. I keep saying “um, aren’t you worried about me being gone?” and he keeps saying “THINK OF ALL THAT CASH!” LOL

    Cool video! The audio was super hard-to-hear for me though; did anybody else have that problem?

    @Lexi, yeah, I could figure out how to adjust the music but not the video portion.

    Oh, and can you make one of those for me? But with the title, “10 Reasons Why You’re Lucky I’m Your Friend.” I could show it to people as an intro video. Like an… orientation.

  36. NYCWD October 31, 2009 4:01 am

    There’s no voting? What kind of fucking social media job is this? Who the fuck is their advisor? Is this like the wine job Martin Sargent applied for where even if you did get a vote they wouldn’t choose the top voted finalist as a finalist?

    For what it’s worth I’d hire you for this job.

    And as the Social Media Consultant too.

    @NYCWD, yeah, crazy right? I’m hoping at the very least the fact that this YouTube video got a few hundred views in 2 days will help.

    I thought it was a great video. Maybe it was the feed I got, but it needed some volume leveling. Lots of *whisper*…SCREAM…*whisper*

    Really though, haven’t these people read your blog yet? Why would they bother with anyone else? :)

    Reply

    Miss Britt Reply:

    @RebTurtle, no, it needs adjusting, but I don’t know how to do that in Windows Movie Maker and I had like one day to finish the whole thing, so, here’s hoping they overlook that.

    I love this video. You did an excellent job; but the I can’t really hear what you are saying when you are saying when you are giving reasons why you should be picked, but I can hear all the clips really well.
