This job appeared several times today on the Monster board.
Now, I'm in now way suggesting that this isn't an advert by Accenture.
But it lacks a certain finesse.
For example:
- no logo, Accenture caused a bit of a stir in the sensible world when they revealed their logo. What was that greater than (>) sign doing over the "t"? In fact they caused a bit of stir when they revealed their new, rebranded name, having split from Arthur Andersen. Well, if you've got a daft name, you may as well have a daft logo I suppose. Pity they haven't used it here.
- a non-Accenture domain name. Come on guys, that looks so suspicious. Use your own domain name. There's no shame working for Accenture these days, apparently.
- a non-landline contact number. Look, I only use a mobile phone number but I'm cool. If you can't afford a landline telephone then I'm not sure I want to work for you (if I did, which I don't).
- non-standard layout. Just look at the Accenture web site, go on, I dare you. Follow its look and feel.
Well, for various reasons I didn't apply.
For a start I'm not totally convinced it's actually an advert on behalf of Accenture. But even if it was I wouldn't apply. I don't want to work in Africa and I don't want to work for Accenture.
If this is a scam do they really think IT people would fall for it? After all, we're the people who got other people, people with ponytails and/or goaty beards, to use Apple Macs.
I wonder how many responses they'll get.
