Brace yourself, Sydney: Scotty got an Aussie job

Scotty iseriIt’s not every Sydney agency appointment that gets reported by the New York Times. Even less so when it’s a freelance gig.

But video blogger Scotty Iseri is not an ordinary freelancer, and Sydney’s social media scene is about to get more interesting with his arrival to work at PR agency Klick.  

Iseri – creator of the Scotty Got An Office Job series – was approached by Klick director Kim McKay after she saw him online and liked his work.

His cult video series began when he switched a freelance career for a staff job. The videos feature him subverting his worplace.

McKay tells Dr Mumbo: “Those of us who follow him are absolutely devoted. I just go on hunches, so I rang him out of the blue, and he said: ‘Okay, crazy Australian lady – I’ll come’.”

His appointment is hinted at in his latest video that reports at the end: “Scotty got an Aussie job”:

His move has been reported by the New York Times.
