PARK CITY, Utah (August 15, 2007) – Backcountry.com is looking for Bounty Hunters. Seriously. The online retailer of high-end outdoor adventure gear and apparel has loads of open positions, and they need help filling them. They’re willing to pay – in gear – an army of Bounty Hunters who can refer good people for open jobs.

Company-wide growth has generated tons of new jobs at Backcountry.com. From IT experts to software developers, from customer solutions reps to warehouse specialists, there are open positions that match a huge range of skills.

“Nobody knows our brand better than our customers, so we’re enlisting them to find our new employees,” said Charla Brown, Backcountry.com’s Human Resources Director. “When there’s a match, we pay the Bounty Hunter with a shopping spree on the site. This is a killer program for gear junkies who have connections.”

Here’s how it works:

• First, register on the Backcountry.com site as a Bounty Hunter. Keep your Backcountry.com Bounty Hunter ID (this is super important—no ID, no gear).

• Next, check out the current job postings at "Jobs." When you see a good match, refer your qualified friend to the site.

• Make sure that your friend lists your Bounty Hunter ID on the online application so you get credit for the hire.

• If Backcountry.com hires the person you refer, you get to spend your bounty (up to $1,000) on the site.

Different positions have different bounties. All bounties are shopping sprees on Backcountry.com that range from $250 to $1,000. The award amount will be clearly marked on each job description. If more than one Bounty Hunter refers a hire, the reward will be divided equally between them.

You can refer as many friends as you’d like, but you can’t refer yourself.

Oh, and one other thing. You must be at least 21 years old to be a Bounty Hunter, but you are not required to wear black leather.
