Automatic transcript. May contain errors.0:00We're hiring an editor for the Naval podcast, and Naval is also hiring a personal chief of staff. If you're not interested in either of these, you can move on to the next episode. Let me give you some details on both of them. First, the editor for the Naval podcast, which, as you already know, is the most timeless and overproduced podcast in human history. The editor will be primarily editing the podcast in Descript. They'll be editing the transcripts for clarity and posting videos to social media to get Neval's ideas into the hands of 8 billion people on planet Earth. If you're already working on another podcast, don't hesitate to contact us.
0:40You'll learn more with us. If you're more of a producer than an editor, feel free to get in touch anyway. We are open to new ideas. This is a part-time role, but there's infinite room to get into more challenging and creative problems. You don't need experience, but you need to be extremely smart and high slope. Here are some more details on what we're looking for. You must have a DSM-5 level attention to detail. You must be a good writer with a nose for design, and you must get things the first time you hear them. Please send less than 750 characters about yourself to podcast at nav.al. Include links to your best work and your smartest tweet.
1:22Tell us about a hard problem you've solved, new knowledge you're creating for fun and share something you've made with AI. The shorter your email, the better. Thanks for considering us. On to the second position. Naval is also hiring a personal chief of staff to work directly with him. This is independent of the podcast. You'll be working with him to solve problems, including traveling the world to recruit engineers, researching investments, throwing events, personal tasks, and anything else he needs done. The work will range from prestigious to pauperian. You must be extremely technical, always working, based in San Francisco, and willing to travel anytime.
2:06The right person probably has a couple years of work under their belt and wants to start a company one day. Again, please send under 750 characters about yourself to chief at nav.al. Include links to your best work and your smartest tweet. Tell us about a hard problem you've solved, new knowledge you're creating for fun, and share something you've made with AI. The shorter your message, the better. Thanks for considering this.
