Yesterday, we mentioned that there are still a couple million job openings in the U.S. Some of them require very specific skills, though. Here are a couple of the more specialized positions out there:
* Parkvale Bank in Monroeville, is looking for - no, not a teller or loan officer but a balloon pilot. The bank has used a balloon for marketing purposes for 30 years, but the job of pilot has been vacant for several weeks now. "You just don't open up the Yellow Pages and look for a balloon pilot," said a senior assistant vice president for the bank.
* A company in Emeryville, California is looking for a dog bather who can also give a dog both a manicure and a pedicure - that's what the listing says, although we're not sure what the difference would be for the dog.
* An outfit in Washington State needs Princesses to work at children's parties. Experience in Magic Shows, Face Painting, Balloon Twisting a must.
* And if you're willing to relocate overseas, Wookey Hole, a tourist destination in England, is looking for a witch to live in the site's caves and teach witchcraft and magic. Applicants must be able to cackle. The old witch retired some months ago. "We are witchless at the moment," said the site's hiring rep, "so need to get the role filled as soon as possible."
