1. This person, who tried recruiting people for a debt collecting agency by saying, "If you have never made $5,000–$10,000 in a month, don't bother. We want top performers and winners, losers and whiners need not apply."
2.This person, who was looking to hire a social media intern for three months WITHOUT PAY and zero guarantees for a full-time position at the end of said internship.
3. This person, who posted a very questionable job listing on Craigslist looking for a "very particular woman to move in with us to help out with our various family and business needs." The salary, you ask? Free rent, but only for "the right business-minded woman."
4.This person, who posted a job listing at a startup company and requested "serious" candidates only, otherwise the startup's projects would fail and "none of us will make any money."
("This is a side project for an experienced developer. Do not quit your day job.")
5. This person, who needed a full-time nanny for two kiddos, seven days a week. They listed the salary at $400, and if you break it down, it comes out to only $2 an hour...absolute monsters!
6.This person, who listed a graphic design "job" (aka contest) for a local coffee shop, asking local artists to create something without any kind of pay. Under "salary level," it reads: "Publication of your work (you will receive so much credit, it's not even funny — I'm a hashtag and tagging whore) and swag (this includes seeing your work before your eyes, lots of coffee, [and] a mug)."
7. This person, who posted a very messy job listing with a bunch of toxic bullet points, like: "1. I don't need you. 2. Read #1 again. 3. I really don't need you. 9. If anything offended you thus far, you definitely don't belong here."
8. This person, who had a food truck restaurant and needed someone willing to work big events at minimum wage — the kicker? The sleeping arrangements would be camping anywhere and everywhere: "This is an opportunity for someone who has the skills to live off the grid, live in the bush, and still show up and work a food truck and deal with the traveling public all day and still smile."
9. This person, who was looking for a full-time vocal coach who'd only get paid $7.50–$10 an hour, who had three years experience under their belt, and who had to dress appropriately. "Dress or skirt an inch high or below the knee, appropriate shoes — must be acceptable at first glance of appearance."
10. This person, who's in the medical field and needed someone with a PhD who was "willing to live the ramen and instant coffee lifestyle before we raise venture capital (we promise we will have an amazing dinner after we raise our first round :D)."
11.This person, who scammed someone into a "promising position" at Indeed and included the following message in their offer: "Your first assignment would be purchasing of commodities at any Walmart store around you and mailing them out through FedEx to foster homes — I do that every month. I will make payment arrangement for you."
And ended on this troubling note: "Kindly re-confirm the name you want to be on the check, your address, cell [number], and your apartment number if there is any mistake (to avoid any loss or misplacement of check payment)."
12. This person, who was looking for a full-time manager at a fast food company and required a never-ending list of important responsibilities at just $8.50 an HOUR.
13.This person, who tried to write a job listing for a tech supporter in a relatable way, but instead made it suuuuuper cringeworthy. They were looking for a "Graphic Design Wizard" who was "addicted to learning" and against "TGIF [being their] M.O."
14. This person, who was looking for a writing editor and totally expected the applicant to 1. bring their own computer to the office and 2. work under pressure and long, long hours.
15. This person, who was looking to fill a full-time entry-level position (which required an experienced-level candidate) at only $60 a month (you read that correctly: a MONTH).
16.This person, who was searching for a volunteer security guard without formal training or a license and was only willing to pay them with coffee and tea.
17. This person, who tried getting away with this job listing for a volunteer at a nonprofit, when in reality, it was essentially a full-time job without pay!
18. This person, who was hiring students in the arts for free and tried to convince them that their reward would be building their personal portfolios instead of money.
19.And this person, who was only going to pay a front desk receptionist at an animal shelter $8.50 an hour for responsibilities that had nothing to do with being a receptionist. Some of them were: "Social media and online management, assist with counseling and processing adoptions and fosters as needed, and maintain general appearance and organization of lobby and desk areas, including but not limited to: daily garbage removal and weekly disinfecting the floors."
