After the flurry of blog posts about Best Buy’s social media job the people behind the initiative are now letting you contribute to the qualifications. One of the most controversial aspects of the social media opening was the fact you needed 250+ followers to qualify for the job, a ridiculous measure of success, especially considering how easy it is to game Twitter.
You have until July 14th to contribute your thoughts and opinions on the qualifications you think Best Buy should consider for the opening over at IdeaX. You can also further converse with @joshuakahn if you like.
Glad they are reconsidering. Now lets get some actual qualifications that mean something. The official blog post that goes into further detail is here if you’re so inclined to read further.
