NIS America is looking for a new editor for their localization staff, as one is leaving to teach English in Japan. They are asking for editors here at Anime Expo in their industry panel today. Here's how bad they want someone: they have three computers at the ready right here, waiting for potential employee contact information.
They will be contacting people over the next couple of months from this contact list gathered at the event. They will be sending out a sample text edit soon, as a sort of employment test.
What they're looking for: They don't need a degree holder, just someone smart. Someone who knows games and this culture. Appealing to their fanbase? Good call, NIS.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!

*needs a job* =P
I could actually do this, but live in Colorado which is very much NOT a part of California.
@Doomsday Forte: This is the closest to you, I think.
He wouldn't be trying to get rid of me, would he? Hm..
I'm starting to wonder how many Hoosier DToiders there are here. *muse*
Shame, right up my street too.
