The Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, headed by billionaires Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, says it is hiring "a very small number" of full-time, salaried positions.
The solicitation, posted on the Musk-owned social media platform X, comes after the group already said in November that it had received thousands of applications from job-seekers eager to assist with "unglamorous cost-cutting." DOGE — which is not an official federal department — was created by President-elect Donald Trump in November to provide recommendations on how to slash billions in federal spending.
In the same post, DOGE said Musk and Ramaswamy would only review the top 1% of applicants, and that it was exclusively seeking "super high-IQ" individuals willing to work more than 80 hours per week deciding how to eliminate costs.

A suspect is in custody after what the FBI is calling a "targeted act of violence" at Pearl Street Mall in Boulder, Colorado, on Sunday. We are saddened and heartbroken to learn that an incendiary device was thrown at walkers at the Run for Their Lives walk on Pearl Street as they were raising awareness for the hostages still held in Gaza. My thoughts are with those injured and impacted by today's attack against a group that meets weekly on Boulder's Pearl Street Mall to call for the release of the hostages in Gaza.
