I've been out of work for a long while now, drifting through dozens of jobsites and roles trying to find something I could do, or at least a company gullible enough to take me. Fortunately I finally found something I knew I would succeed with on grapevinejobs.com.
The job's description was fairly light on details, the company name not given and the specific role other than 'budgeting and camera work' was vague. There was a line about being able to admire and respect the female body though...
Reading between the lines I ascertained the role was for a camera man and general work horse for a porn company.
Perfect, I thought. I sent off my CV along with a covering letter that they assured they needed.
This is what I decided to send in the covering letter.
I've been a long time admirer of your industry and I have a fascination in the technical and administrative details of such a broad and diverse world. I have been known to research information for long periods in my own free time, I've even been found researching in the middle of night, gripped by a sudden urge. At times being found in these throes has been embarrassing due to my single mindedness.
On the one hand I don't have any real experience within the field, but on the other hand I have bundles of energy and inspiration and I believe if I can just find an opening I could succeed.
I look forward to hearing from you.
It's been three weeks and they haven't responded yet...
