All too often you see job ads that harp on about what they're looking for in the right candidate. But recruitment is a two-way process, whatever industry you're in (PR if you're asking).

And just as important to a candidate is why on earth they should want to work for the company posting the ad. Because we couldn't think of 10, here are eight reasons why Rhizome PR is head and shoulders above the rest as an employer:

1. On Mondays we have fresh fruit delivered to the office. Everyone moans about the apple to pear ratio, but they actually love it. We do it so they take fewer sick days, and so the boss can throw satsumas at people's heads during brainstorms when they come up with stupid ideas (we believe there is such a thing as a stupid idea in a brainstorm).

2. We get a 10-20% discount in most of the shops on Regent Street and Carnaby Street, just for being a local business. This is a curse for the bank balance but great for Dom, because he can buy larger and larger shirts from Liberty as his waistline gets bigger each day from his Leon meatball lunches.

3. We all have big shiny Macs. When people's keyboards and mice stop working, Jonny threatens to replace them with cheap clunky versions from WH Smith, but we always overrule him. Apple 'til we die.

4. There's a Nespresso machine in our meeting room, and so many pods we can't drink them all - even though we're all caffeined up to the eyeballs.

Frankly, if this doesn't sell it, nothing will[/caption]

5. We hate corporate jargon. In fact, anyone who uses any of the following has to go and buy cookies for the whole office: moving forwards, revert, blue-sky thinking, crowbar, key messages, best practice, ducks in a row, solution, leverage, low-hanging fruit, and the worst of the bunch - reach out. Same goes for anyone who starts a sentence with 'so'.

6. When we go to our local boozer, the drinks are on the bosses.

7. We mainly work with SME owners who are among the best people on earth to work with. They are inspiring, passionate and they really know their stuff. Plus, they don't take five weeks to sign off a press release or a comment. Makes us all the more efficient.

If the above hasn't put you off, check out our job ad on the Guardian and get in touch (tip: we love a well-written cover letter).
