Apparently this job posting is for real.
Can you do Magic? A firm in South West London [is] interested in employing a solicitor who is an experienced magician. This may sound a little bizarre, but the firm [has] had the idea of someone doing magic tricks whilst pitching to clients. Is this a wind up? We don't think so - the firm sounded deadly serious. They mentioned possibly hiring someone who had done quite a bit of work on stage as an alternative. If you think you can stand on your head whilst balancing an apple on your chin and juggling three chain saws with your feet, and at the same time do a presentation on recent changes to employment legislation, please get in touch.
According to the recruiter, this ad is genuine. One person who applied, a "psychic lawyer," was told the client really wants an experienced lawyer/magician. More here from Lawyers Weekly.
