Only a complete twit would refuse to favorite this Twitter recruitment video, which has notched more than 400,000 YouTube views since its launch on Friday. The clip skewers the frequently tacky genre (like the best parodies on Funny Or Die) while portraying the company as a geek-tastically hip place to work. Even CEO Dick Costolo gets in on the fun, playing straight man to subordinates Ian Padgham and Jeremy Briggs, who march into the boss's office to present a recruitment film that Costolo doesn't recall asking them to make.
