Nominate @ctccrazy to be the first MTV TJ #zyncmtvtj

We're pleased to finally reveal "Follow Me: The Search For The First MTV TJ" -- a unique competition and job search that will redefine the role that social media plays in our relationship with our audience. And we need you to help!


What exactly is the TJ? The MTV Twitter Jockey will actively engage with you, our audience - answering your questions, advocating for your interests, doling out behind-the-scenes information, cool links and exclusive media across MTV.com, Twitter, Facebook, blogs, and even in some televised segments. The TJ will be your voice, and the means of communication between you and all the MTV celebrities, producers and employees .
The candidate selected by the audience to be the first MTV TJ will sign a one-year employment contract with MTV, relocate to New York City and work out of our Times Square headquarters, and earn a salary of $100,000.

We have already pre-selected 18 candidates based on months of scouring the internet to find the best of the best. Specifically, we were looking for things like high level of involvement on Twitter, Facebook and blogs. But mostly, these 18 were selected for their unique takes on pop culture and the world around them. Starting Wednesday we'll start revealing who these 18 are -- so mark your calendar!
We are currently in an open nomination phase, which means that we are looking for two more qualified candidates nominated by you, the audience! Nominate yourself, your friends, or anyone else who you think deserves a shot. In a few weeks when the nomination period has come to a close we will be looking at all of your suggestions and selecting two additional candidates. So don't waste any time. Nominate now by "Liking" ZYNC from American Express(SM)!
Blah blah blah...that's a lot of reading! If you want to know more, check out our about page for the full story, and follow @MTVTJ on Twitter for info and updates!
