I don't believe them, never mind.

Ofgem wanted an Electronic Communications Editor.

'What we offer you:

They work you hard in the government, you get no holidays for two years. APD 8 October 2007.

'Recruiting now:

Full time students seeking P/T promotional work.

(Non-students can also apply)'

Have a look at their website http://theloungegroup.com. They are a trendy marketing agency that are targeting the under 35 market. They promote things at Universities and clubs, and their website is full of pictures of bright young things having a marvellous time.

Dear all at the lounge group.

Your advert in the Guardian dated 29/09/07 left me with a feeling like I had just eaten a sherbet lemon.

I am not a student anymore, but your advert said that I can apply anyway.

I have to tell you that I am 35 years old next August, so I will be outside of your target age range, does this make a difference?

I notice from your website that a lot of your promotions take place in nightclubs. I haven’t been to a night club in years. We prefer to have people around for a few nibbles and drinks. I find that you can’t have a decent conversation in a nightclub, as the music is just too loud.

However, I attach my CV for your perusal and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Kind regards

Dear Ian,

The Lounge Group is a Marketing and PR agency which specialises in the under 35s demographic. While our campaigns aim to target this demographic this does not exclude those over 35s from joining our network of field staff. Although the advert was aimed to target students as we were hoping to recruit candidates for specific campaigns (i.e. those on university campuses) we review every application on its own merits and consider applicants from all walks of life.

It is true that some of our campaigns are held at night clubs but the vast majority are not.

We have closed our applications for this year but will consider your application early in the New Year.

Kind regards and Season’s Greetings

Nic Fine
Operations Executive
