Warning - this might be a bit techy for this blog - sorry if it is.

I saw this job advert on Crunchboard - and think it’s an excellent way of appealing to the intended audience:

$q1 = Are you a master PHP Ninja who loves to code away in the dark?

$q2 = Excel at object oriented PHP, Smarty template engine, caching practices and PEAR?

$q3 = Familiar with CSS, Javascript,  Ajax, Django, XHTML, SQL, Subversion?

$q4 = Aware of RSS, XML-RPC, web services, memcached and all other geeky stuff?

$q5 = Keen to learn much more?

if ( $q1 && $q2 && $q3 && $q4 && $q5 ) {

echo “YOU SHOULD <strong>JOIN</strong> US!<br />

echo “please include some php and javascript code snippets or refer us to projects that you’ve”;

echo “already made. tell us our coding mistakes in this call and let us know what you know about and what to do”;

echo “the new javascript 1.7, mysql 5.2 and php 5. thanx,”;

exit;

}

else {

die(”maybe next time…”);

}

The company in question is CTT in Basingstoke
