Temporary football analyst position open

There is  no description of the job. http://umjobs.org/job_detail/79726/football_analyst

I'm tempted to apply, but I'm already a full time employee of the U. Too bad.

So...

My guess is that they want to hire someone (a specific person), but University rules/state laws require them to post it publicly.

Yeah, state laws require posting of all job openings to help prevent cronyism/nepotism. It doesn't really work, but the thought is nice. U of M had to post the head coach opening when Rodriguez and Hoke were hired too.

There was actually an Onion article along those lines recently. Too bad one minute of half-hearted searching didn't turn it up.

Wisconsin did it for their head coach recently

I think someone posted it on the board. I was extremely tempted to send in an app just for kicks.

The Article You Seek...

...is found here, if I am not mistaken, and definitely seems to apply to a blank listing. A seach of the administrative staff shows that we have three analysts on staff at last report, two defensive analysts and one offensive analyst. 

The opener for the Onion article, which is all too true of many companies:

"Software developer WebTek Network Solutions went ahead and posted a listing for a job this morning as if the purportedly open position hadn’t already been promised to a friend of one the company’s current employees, sources confirmed Monday."

I'm surprised HR let this one

I'm surprised HR let this one through.  Normally they at least require some kind of description to post it so random people have a chance to at least write a decent cover letter or the like.  Supposedly the fairness of it can be debated otherwise.

Nonexempt

The weirdest part of this is that it is non exempt under the FLSA which means it is a low-level job eligible for overtime pay. Which isn't the type of thing they would have a person in mind for

Work Study

My guess is that they have a student lined up for work study which is why it is a non-exempt / hourly employee. Not someone recruited for a salaried spot, but someone with ties to the program.
