Nice! Needing to hire more people is a good problem to have.

Wasn't that the same office that was open last time you had an ad up?

But what if I do not want an office?

My parents re-upped my CM subscription for my annual Christmas present this year.  Hope this helps keep the new guy employed.  wink

Brett: Sorta. Still looking for another automotive writer. Skills are hard to find, especially here (it's an in-house position). Especially car-guy writer skills. See some of the comments on the last page of the Corvette reveal thread to understand why we need someone with writing chops and car knowledge.

ckosacranoid: Then ideally you would not apply, though that obvious mismatch hasn't stopped a lot of people.

Volvo: Yes! Thank you

On one hand, you would be next to a cruise port, so going sailing often would be easy.

On the other hand, Florida.

I'll just stick with our retirement plans.

I could use a change of pace and scenery. Sadly I do not possess the skills you need.

Full disclosure: I never bother to shoot new photos when we put up a hiring ad, it's just sheer dumb luck that that office is actually open right now.

My girlfriend would love to be in Florida near her parents. But the timing is bad, just like the management position I was asked to apply for in San Antonio.

You guys really need to open a GRM Northeast satellite office. wink I'm even right next to the town where Tim grew up!

I actually would love to work at GRM but I looked at the job listings closely and I do not, in fact, have the desired qualifications. I'll spare you my pathetic  resume for now, but if you ever need a tech person to sit in the office all day making sure the computers keep computing, well then that would be a different story. wink

When you guys decide you need a roving free writer that focuses on Korean cars you let me know. I'm in.

I resemble that remark.

 

Thank you for maintaining a high level of quality with regards to published content, while still allowing me to pollute the forums ;)

You never pollute! And the mismatch we keep seeing is applicants who want to telecommute. Hard to hand a person the keys to the press car we have to review when they live in Idaho, or wherever.

I'm willing to relocate, but your magazine would turn into "Hot Hyundai's and Killer Kia's"..... and the lack of actual skills required.
