- discretion to identify both threats and opportunities in user-generated content.
- understanding of the social media universe: YouTube, StumbleUpon, Delicious, Digg, Reddit, Flickr, forums, Twitter, Wikis, blogs and more. We need a social media addict who maintains a personal mix of participatory expertise from these channels.

- Create content for feeds and snippets in various social media sites.
- Schedule and organize multiple clients, all of whom are generating content on a daily basis.
- Optimize tags on our feeds, on sharing sites (like YouTube/Flickr) and on search engines through copywriting, creative & keyword optimization and buzz pocket mining.

How you get the job...
- No resumes. At least not the kind written in MS Word.
- Send an elevator pitch on why you are the person we’ve described.
- DON'T send an e-mail! If you are a community-centric person, it just makes sense to connect via Twitter or Facebook - DM me on Twitter or PM me through Facebook.
- If your profiles are hard to connect to you on social media sites, tell me which are yours and what you’re hiding.
- Understand this will be a competitive search and there is one position open right now. Be outstanding.
