John Mayer Fans Need Not Apply

Awhile back I talked about a want ad that was not going to be effective. Today I have found one that could be the best food service ad that I have seen.
Coffee Social, a new organic cafe, is looking for PT help. Hours (to start) are 11-2 three days a week (no weekends).

We are serious about good coffee, good service and good food. Other than that, we're a pretty irreverent bunch.
We're looking for that perfect fit:

• characteristics: likes working with people, not easily flustered, good work ethic
• company culture fit: has a commitment to (and knowledge of) organic foods, sustainable agriculture and business practices; customer service oriented; tolerant of the weird (we're more Circus Contraption, Tom Lehrer and Monty Python than John Mayer, Good Charlotte, This is Your Line); erudite.
• job skills: cashiering, drink-preparation (espresso, tea, shakes, etc.), food preparation (sandwiches, salads), cleaning/dishwashing (we're a small shop--everyone pitches in), cooking/baking (bonus!).

What we provide: a non-corporate work environment; a chance to work at a place that cares about good coffee; a monthly bus pass; shift meals.
Please apply in person at Coffee Social, 113 W Indiana. I like the fact that they are focusing on finding people that will fit into their team and are willing to describe themselves as erudite. This is especially important in a small business (good fit not erudite) yet is often overlooked. I also like that they offer shift meals and bus passes.
This ad reminds me of Doma Coffee's practice of requiring applicants to draw a picture on the back of the application. It wasn't necessarily an art test but rather a good indication of how the applicant's personality responded to the situation.
