Apple iCup technician wanted, no computer skills required

By: Lynsey Barber

For anyone who has harboured a dream of working for Apple but doesn’t know their front-end from their back-end, the perfect job has just come up.

The potential employee won't even need to know how to switch a computer on if they become Apple’s iCup technician.

That’s because it gets about as technical as a coffee machine.

In fact, that’s because it actually is being a technician for the coffee machine.

Forget your growth hackers, digital prophets and social ninjas, Apple has just invented the most over-inflated job title in tech with the iCup technician- otherwise known as the person who makes coffee.

This is what Apple’s looking for.
