to the next level with improvements to both the breadth and depth of our

00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:39.060
content though of course we wouldn't be able to afford any of that if it wasn't

00:00:34.640 --> 00:00:47.039
for this obnoxious ad so

00:00:47.039 --> 00:00:53.719

video description and it'll feed my family and my wife and our cats so

please do that that'd be great I'm going to get right down to busness we're

00:01:06.960 --> 00:01:14.560
looking for individuals who are able to help in the pre-production process which

00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:19.000
involves researching and requesting upand cominging technology for review

00:01:16.920 --> 00:01:23.119
brainstorming ways to tackle existing technology from new or interesting

00:01:20.799 --> 00:01:27.520
angles benchmarking testing and validation of the above product or ideas

00:01:26.079 --> 00:01:31.799
either by following our existing protocols or building completely new

00:01:29.400 --> 00:01:37.280
ones analyzing the results and forming opinions documenting the entire process

00:01:34.880 --> 00:01:41.479
and in terms that a lay person can understand coordinating with our hosts

00:01:39.560 --> 00:01:46.040
to ensure scripts can be written from the notes or even writing the scripts

00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:50.840
fully coordinating with our Shooters and editors to ensure the visual portion is

00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:53.200
accurate and there are actually some other thing we don't ask for much do we

00:01:52.200 --> 00:01:59.280
there are some other things that we'll be looking for as well aside from the obvious great attitude good Problem

00:01:57.479 --> 00:02:05.000
Solver works well independently or with a team etc etc strong writers will have

00:02:02.840 --> 00:02:09.160
the best chance if you're already working for a tech publication you would

00:02:07.119 --> 00:02:14.040
do well to include your portfolio we will treat it with the utmost discretion

00:02:11.680 --> 00:02:20.560
maker skills including experience with programming CNC cutting 3D modeling and

00:02:16.840 --> 00:02:21.959
Robotics are a huge plus as always don't

00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:28.160
bother applying if you don't have a sense of humor you're going to be working with this guy for crying out

00:02:24.920 --> 00:02:29.959
loud and this one isn't much better okay

00:02:28.160 --> 00:02:36.120
so you're intrigued at this point and wondering how to apply for this position

00:02:33.200 --> 00:02:40.200
well we used to list all the things that would disqualify someone from applying

00:02:38.160 --> 00:02:45.120
like for example not having a Canadian work permit and provide an email address

00:02:42.599 --> 00:02:48.720
below the video for resumé submissions but this has proven to be too

00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:52.480
complicated for some people in the past so this time around there's a Google

00:02:50.519 --> 00:02:57.959
form linked under the video that we would like everyone to fill out before

00:02:55.319 --> 00:03:02.920
going any further once you answer all of the skill testing questions success y

00:03:00.640 --> 00:03:07.280
you will receive further instructions but the gist of it is this you'll send a

00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:12.080
resume and cover letter along with a portfolio if available and additionally

00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:17.440
we'll provide some sample scripts from our previous projects and some suggested

00:03:14.920 --> 00:03:21.640
topics you'll pick a topic to research and write about to show off your skills

00:03:20.040 --> 00:03:24.920
note that you don't have to use one of our sample topics and a great way to

00:03:23.440 --> 00:03:31.319
stand out would be to tackle something we've never done or thought of before

00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:33.720
and you send them in and for the best

00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:37.599
now hold on a minute lonus we like yours and Luke's approach to Tech and Taran

00:03:35.560 --> 00:03:42.720
and Brandon are okay too what makes you think we would like someone else's video

00:03:40.519 --> 00:03:46.640
because this is already happening with most of you probably not even noticing

00:03:44.840 --> 00:03:52.079
some of the most fun videos that I've hosted lately office makeover water

00:03:49.159 --> 00:03:57.720
cooled PS4 ultimate DIY desk PC USB typewriter and our DIY bong cooler I

00:03:55.480 --> 00:04:03.680
wrote or at least heavily edited the scripts but they mostly weren't done by

00:04:00.840 --> 00:04:09.319
me some of them weren't even my ideas which doesn't mean that I am or anyone

00:04:06.480 --> 00:04:14.319
here for that matter actually out of ideas it just means that for us to keep

00:04:11.840 --> 00:04:19.680
pushing the envelope and to do some of the really cool stuff we have planned we

00:04:16.600 --> 00:04:21.880
need more resources to dedicate to them

00:04:19.680 --> 00:04:26.000
so be excited because whether you're one of the successful candidates or you just

00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:29.919
bought a rocking hashtag out of ideas shirt you'll be part of a 2017 that's

00:04:28.400 --> 00:04:34.840
going to be bigger and better better than ever for lonus Tech tips thanks for

00:04:32.240 --> 00:04:38.120
