Employer's Lingo

 

"COMPETITIVE SALARY" = We remain competitive by paying less than our competitors.
"JOIN OUR FAST-PACED TEAM" = We have no time to train you.
"SOME OVERTIME REQUIRED" = Some time each night and some time each weekend.
"DUTIES WILL VARY" = Anyone in the office can boss you around.
"CAREER-MINDED" = Female applicants must be childless (and remain that way).
"APPLY IN PERSON" = If you're old, fat or ugly you'll be told the position has been filled.
"SEEKING CANDIDATES WITH A WIDE VARIETY OF EXPERIENCE" = You'll need it to replace three people who just left.
"PROBLEM-SOLVING SKILLS A MUST" = You're walking into a company in perpetual chaos.
"REQUIRES TEAM LEADERSHIP SKILLS" = You'll have the responsibilities of a manager, without the pay or respect.
