Way back in the 30s, my grandad used to work for LIC Corporation of India as the Head of southern operations. His immediate Boss was a Brit, the Country Head… He had this great opening for job interviews
Candidate : Good morning Sirs !
Brit Boss : Good Morning ! That’s a very nice tie you are wearing !
Candidate : Thank you Sir !
Brit Boss : Can you remove it, please ?
The Candidate is confused, but fumbles and removes the tie.
Brit Boss : Can you put it on back, please ?
Crisis ! The candidate is flabbergasted. 
His Dad or elder bro or somone made a neat knot that he could just slip over his head and tighten up. He just doesn’t know how to knot a tie. In school, he had an elastic strap tie, in college he never wore one. 
Brit Boss : I think the 1st thing you need to do before you start seeking a career is to start learning to do things your self.
He is politely asked to leave…
If he reknotted the tie, he was shortlisted

Ben Southall, 34, of Petersfield, beat out nearly 35,000 applicants from around the world for the dream assignment to swim, explore and relax on Hamilton Island in the Great Barrier Reef, while writing a blog to promote the area. He was selected for the $111,000 gig - a six-month contract to serve as caretaker of a tropical Australian island. He now has to live rent-free in a three-bedroom villa, complete with pool.
Before getting the job he had to spend four days on the island for an extended interview process, which required applicants to snorkel through crystalline waters, gorge themselves at a beachside barbecue and relax at a spa. He also had to demonstrate his blogging abilities, take swimming tests and sit through in-person interviews.

1st in the List of Some of the Coolest Jobs on the Planet 
A student from Birmingham City University has landed her dream job…literally! Sleeping on the job and having a lie-in will no longer be a problem for a girl, who has been selected to test out luxury beds for a month and get paid for it.
Roisin Madigan, 22, is earning £1,000 to sleep in designer beds every day for a month. The student is helping with a “sleep survey” carried out by luxury bed specialists Simon Horn Ltd. The company sells luxury Savoir Beds, originally made for the Savoy Hotel. General manager Craig Roylance said Roisin will not only provide an objective view of the beds on sale, but will also be part of a look into what brings a good night’s sleep.
She will spend 10am to 6pm in beds in the company’s showroom in Edgbaston, and then will blog about her experiences.
