Re: [R] Job Opportunity: Statistical Guru CC 083
BTW: I am looking for a wife that is very intelligent, earns at least 300,000$ a year, is less than 25 years old, is a real beauty, happily cooks, cleans, and works in the garden, and is never moody, of course. She would have the great opportunity to solve one of the most complex challenges facing human life today: Marrying me, a guy working 12 hours a day, only talking about statistics and alike, looking tired, frequently beeing ill, a couple of years older, always moody, not even remembering his own birthday. Of course, I will not send any answers on your inquiries if I like your photo and you have sent me at least 10,000$.

Our client is a drug development platform technology company whose patent pending intellectual property is poised to dramatically impact both drug discovery and development processes.

I fear your vacancy notice has not been written to attract the best candidate. There are even important details which you have left unmentioned (for example, is your preferred method of communication by Command, or by Point and Click, or by both?) Perhaps slightly more seriously, Don Alexander's advertisement contains many of the elements of a good vacancy notice, and could perhaps serve as a model which you could refine. I am reminded of C. Northcote Parkinson's penetrating analyis of job adverts (he of Parkinson's Law). He pointed out that most job advertisements are inefficient and ineffective, in that they are written in such a way that they attract far too many applicants. As a result, much time, effort and expense is incurred in rejecting most or even all of these (since really discriminating candidates would probably not respond in the first place. He recommended instead the Chinese Method. In this, you know exactly whom you precisely want, and you frame the advert in such terms as to exclude all other possibilities, and to just (but no more) irresistibly attract that one candidate. Don Alexander's effort clearly goes some distance in this direction, though even so there will probably be unnecessary duplication of applicants. But you can work on it! With best wishes, and with tongue in cheek, Ted. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Uwe Ligges Sent: 15 May 2005 12:00 To: Don Alexander Cc: r-help@stat.math.ethz.ch Subject: Re: [R] Job Opportunity: Statistical Guru CC 083 BTW: I am looking for a wife that is very intelligent, earns at least 300,000$ a year, is less than 25 years old, is a real beauty, happily cooks, cleans, and works in the garden, and is never moody, of course.
