Looking for a "Conference producer & social media ninja" for Calacanis Conferences

1/27/2010
Friends,

I’m looking for a bright, hard working, tech savvy, problem solving
person to help me run events like the Open Angel Forum, TechCrunch50,
This Week in Startups and another event I’m planning. This person
doesn’t need to have any experiencing working in event production.
They simply need to be:

1. very detail oriented
2. technically savvy (think spreadsheets, email, setting up a blog,
uploading a video, using social networks, buying a domain name, etc).
3. A/V savvy (or the ability to quickly pick up how microphones, video
cameras, etc. work)
4. great communication skills
5. presentable and personable (i.e. can’t be introverted if you need
to greet 25 people at an Open Angel Forum event!)
6. positive, resourceful and fun
7. inquisitive
8. resilient
9. hard working
10. good under pressure (and a very intense boss–me!)

This is a great first or second job for someone–out of school is just
fine. $30-40k to start, work directly with me and Tyler.

This opportunity is in Santa Monica–NO REMOTE WORKERS (sorry!)

Send a cover letter telling Tyler and I about yourself and why you
think you would be good in this role, as well as your resume.

Send to: gig@calacanis.com

Hello, my name is Jason. Welcome to my blog on the interwebs. You can reach me on twitter @jason and by email at jason@calacanis.com. My Skype is jasoncalacanis, and my mobile phone is 310-456-4900.

I only pick up numbers I recognize, and in terms of emailing me, the best strategy is to write short, blunt and to the point requests. I can quickly respond to short messages, and many times I simply don't have the time to read five page pitches. In terms of taking meetings, I only do that after reviewing an actual product (not a business plan). So, the best time to ping me is when you have mockups or an alpha site. I don't read business plans, and I've never written one.

Other twitter accounts you can follow: Video Games, Open Angel Forum, and LAUNCH Conference & Newsletter
