    The core problem with this gig is that Mac tends to attract dumb hotties with rich daddies. PC tends to attract fatties working at the same mall and WoW freaks.

    I think the choice is clear...

    @Ps360facepunch: I haven't really encountered particularly smug "Geniuses", but they'll only dole as much shit as they think you can tolerate. It's just that a lot of the customers that wander into Apple stores are too passive and it makes them bold. At least, that's my observation. #microsofthiringwindowsgurus

    @Kaiser-Machead: It also depends on the store.

    I found just how terrible the Station A (SoHo) and Apple Cube service is (including the intolerable waits even if you have an appointment) when I went to an Apple Store at a suburban mall.

    I waited for about 10 minutes past my appointment time, the gentleman was direct and concise, and bottom-lined everything.

    The guys working the counters in NYC are prickish because they can be prickish. #microsofthiringwindowsgurus

    Why not have a contest? Something that judges speed and quality.

    Post a strange photoshop task (something that nobody will already have completed) Then accept all entries that come in within 1/2 hour. Pick the best ones. #graphicsintern

    "Have a Mac (see below)."

    I don't see any reasoning below (or above)

    Is there such thing as PC-discrimination? #graphicsintern

    However, he didn't mention "able to read English" as a job requirement. So you might still have a chance. #graphicsintern

    To the folks asking about the pay:

    Here's the thing; If you apply for, and are selected for a job position and don't like the offered salary, you can turn the job down. Don't let the lack of mention of pay be your excuse for applying for a job that you want.

    @DaveExile (Starless since 2006!): Intentional or not, having met a number of junior folks on the masthead, I think they are comfortable with that result.

    They're looking for folks who are excited to do the above with no/few questions asked. And while I'm not that person anymore, that person definitely does exist. I remember being that person.

    In the legal world, you get something similar with paralegals and investigators. "Must be high energy. Willing to work crazy hours and do whatever intense thing needs to get done. You'll get great experience." And that's it.

    Not surprisingly, most of them were between 22-26. #meta

    @92BuickLeSabre: I remember being that person too. I suppose it was well before the rigors of grad school, etc.

    Though, as a sometime inhabitant of the legal world also, I must add that the paralegals I knew of were full-time, had a salary, and had an expectation of the general requirements/benefits of the position. I thought that was a given in seeking top canditates: I've been wrong before.

    Of course, I have never heard such pointed complaints about applicants--I submit that if you have to tell someone to re-read the application in the application it is time to make changes. #meta
