Recently I heard a story about a job recruiter from a friend, and I must say that the recruiter’s way of trying to get him a job was quite intriguing. I’ve compiled a step-by-step guide so that you too can be as ingenious as him.

1. Either hire someone with a thick Indian accent or learn to speak with one. By thick I mean impossible to hear. You’d have to already have an Indian accent and then perhaps burn your tongue to get the level of thickness required.
2. Get a bad phone with a shaky connection
3. Find someone who wants to get a job through whatever shady methods you choose (Monster.com, perhaps? Something like that)
4. Call a potential worker (from now on referred to as PW)

The conversation will go something like this:

Recruiter: HelloIamhearingthatyouarelookingforajob [job details here]

PW: What?

Recruiter: Howwouldyouliketoworkfor excellent job 24dollarsanhour*

PW: I’m sorry, how much?

Recruiter: 24dollarshour

PW: What?

*words in italics are to be extra-extra-slurred

Now take a note here that the recruitee was used to jobs that paid quite a bit higher. By masking the actual income and making everything else sound nice, you could lure someone to an interview and then beat them on the head with a sack of nickels and get free labor. Be wary of this - the PW didn’t fall into the trap but you might.

By the way: this post brought to you by the MoneyMoose, but also sort of kind of this guy: a boy from India. Actually, not really. Not at all.
