Out-of-work zombies and sunflowers apply within!

Dublin-based casual game developers PopCap are offering the strangest job opportunity in Ireland since the position of Taoiseach last came up for grabs.

The creators of Bejeweled and Plants Vs Zombies are hoping to recruit a “sunflower” and a “zombie” to add to their Irish team. Successful candidates will take to the streets, dressed as a flesh-eating ghoul and an oversized daisy. “It is a fun opportunity for the right individuals to showcase their acting talents, create some buzz and most of all, have fun,” said Cathy Orr, PopCap’s Senior Director of International PR.

Candidates should send a CV, brief cover note, and supporting photos or vids, to [email protected]. Closing date for entries is June 15, 2011.
