Elon Musk's DOGE is hiring on X: Need super-high IQ, willing to work 80+ hours

India Today  

In an unusual hiring drive, Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, tapped by US President-elect Donald Trump to lead the newly formed Department of Government Efficiency, are seeking applicants through the social media platform X. The department, however, made it clear that it is not looking for "more part-time idea generators" but instead seeks "super high-IQ small-government revolutionaries willing to work 80+ hours per week on unglamorous cost-cutting”. "That stands in contrast to the many government bureaucrats who: do little or no work, tell people only what they want to hear, & make more money than the value they create,” he wrote on X. President-elect Trump announced the formation of DOGE on Tuesday, tasking Musk and Ramaswamy with cutting federal spending, slashing excess regulations, and restructuring federal agencies. "As President Trump has said, Elon Musk is a genius, an innovator, and has literally made history by building creative, modern, and efficient systems," said Karoline Leavitt, Trump-Vance Transition spokesperson.
