To coincide with Alain de Botton’s new book, The Pleasures and Sorrows of Work, The School of Life is reinventing itself as an alternative job centre throughout April. But we’re inviting turning the usual way jobs are advertised on its head. Rather than invite employers to advertise jobs for us to squeeze our ourselves into, we’re inviting you to write your an ad for the job of your dreams, and let employers decide if they are able to offer it to you.

My knee jerk reaction was “This idea is twee and fanciful, give me a break.” But then I started thinking that maybe this approach is the one that makes the most sense. What do you think?
