Amnesia Razorfish appoints “skirt for hire” to social media role
Amnesia Razorfish has hired Karalee Evans as its social media manager, after attracting attention by marketing herself as a “skirt for hire” on Twitter, creating a blog and posting an anonymous job ad on Mumbrella around the pseudonym.
Evans takes over from Tiphereth Gloria who has moved to GPY&R Sydney into a similar role.
Prior to joining Amnesia Razorfish, Evans was communications and partnerships manager at Headspace, the government-funded initiative that provides young people with mental and health well being support.
She began her career with PR consultancy Media Key and has also previously worked at Fenton Communications, the Victorian Department of Infrastructure and Australian Air Express in corporate affairs.
Following Evan’s job post on Mumbrella a subsequent article written about her possible identity is currently the third most discussed story on the Mumbrella website, with 65 comments at the time of posting.
Her skirt for hire Twitter profile has 99 followers.
Tim Burrowes founded Mumbrella in 2008. He worked on Mumbrella until 2021. At various points he was editor, content director and editor-at-large.

The 24th of May couldn’t come quick enough – can’t wait to have you on board Ms Evans. Oh, and don’t feel compelled to wear a skirt…

HJi Karalee, well done. Just want to know … what will happen with one of the best PR blogs in the land if you’re no longer going to be a PR guru? Welcome to SinCity BTW.

Anyone getting a job is good news I suppose, but advertising yourself as a ‘skirt for hire’ seems a bit redundant in this industry, given the high proportion of female practitioners (not that there’s anything wrong with that…).
I can’t help but feel that if I put myself out there as ‘pants for hire’ I’d be accused of blokey arrogance – or something like that.

I just heard that amnesia made a chunk of people redundant.
