This Friday the 13th from 3:30 – 6:00 p.m., we’re holding a casting call for Nerdery-wannabes and secret admirers to come and check us out, and vice versa. If you’ve ever thought about working at The Nerdery, first and foremost, it’s a good gig. The Internet seems to have considerable staying power and mastering its ways can be lucrative. We’re busy. It’s fun. So there’s all that. Please RSVP.
Here’s the who, what, where, when and why. Our jobs page has a list of open positions and video testimonials articulating what it’s like to have filled said positions.
Recruits, you’ll be able to make the speed-dating rounds in meeting representative nerds, including: our founders; front-end developers (XHTML/CSS/JavaScript); backend developers (.NET, Java, PHP); ActionScript developers (Flash/Flex); sales and marketing staff, including sales engineers; software development managers; our dogs.
If you follow The Nerdery at all you’ve come to know things about us that you wouldn’t typically associate with a normal workplace. So here’s yet another inside scoop for ya: working here is your best shot at qualifying for Pentathanerd. In fact, at our inaugural Summer Games, Nerdery residency was the only path to glory, however, it’s rumored that at-large competitors might be invited to partake in the Winter Games. But even so, working here gives you unfettered access to the finest Pentathanerd training facilities you’ll find anywhere in the world (Trinidad/Tobago? Not even close).
Friday’s dress code: Surprise us. Last week was all over the map when it comes to “business” attire. Sure, it was Wolf Shirt Friday, but some also observed Formal Friday, Argyle Day (admittedly not on most calendars), and there was a smattering of Hawaiian shirt loyalists and even a few interesting combo platters. So come as you are – but please come.
