Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (which he runs with Vivek Ramaswamy) put out the call Thursday for “super high-IQ small-government revolutionaries willing to work 80+ hours per week on unglamorous cost-cutting.” As appealing as that job might sound (oh, it’s seemingly unpaid also), the potential conflict came in the instructions about how to apply.
Potential applicants are being instructed to send their resumes to the DOGE account on X via direct message. Under Musk’s changes to that platform, however, only premium subscribers are able to send DMs to the DOGE account. Those run from $8 to $16 per month.
Put another way: To even be considered for a role in the department (and the site said only the top 1% of resumes will be reviewed by Musk and Ramaswamy), applicants will have to make a financial contribution to one of Musk’s businesses.
