The best job you’ll never have

Applying for jobs is a pain at the best of times – bending and twisting your professional (and sometimes personal) life into a narrative which fits the dot points, the deliverables, the demands. But do it, we must.

Every now and then though, a job comes along that’s so ridiculous, even Dr Mumbo can’t get on board with the application process.

The ad declares to would-be applicants that whilst 24/7 isn’t expected, “Your personal constraints need to be minimal for this to work.
