职场杂谈：奢侈品体验员

The Living Luxury Executive will be responsible for evaluating each experience and reporting back to VeryFirstTo, a members-only luxury gift website that sells the world's finest products and dubs itself 'the first website for individuals to learn about, and have, newly launching luxury products and experiences.'

Newly launching brands that appear on VeryFirstTo and are candidates for testing include: Alexander McQueen, Apple, Bentley, Cartier, Christian Louboutin, Jimmy Choo, fine Japanese eatery Nobu and the renowned Shangri-La hotel.

Speaking about the ideal candidate, the recruiter said: 'The ideal candidate would be an early adopter, discerning, eloquent, familiar with fashion, hospitality, cuisine and technology, and have experience of the luxury market.'

Candidates must be able to 'distinguish between the roar of a Bentley and a Lexus engine, and the touch of cashmere and vicu?a', according to the job spec.

A spokesman for the website told the Guardian: 'We will definitely be appointing someone. It is not a stunt. As for the salary, it is negotiable and we have not set it. There will be an ongoing contract and, depending upon the salary asked for, it can be anything from four days a week to less.'

But if you're thinking of applying via the website before Friday's deadline, competition is fierce.

Despite the position never being actually advertised (information was emailed to the site's members and posted on its site), word spread across the globe and within days 1,000 applications have been received.
