STOCKHOLM, Sweden, Nov. 3 (UPI) -- A Swedish employment agency said it pulled an ad seeking workers willing to get naked and with experience "making out in bars."
The National Public Employment Agency said it took down the posting from organizers of the Arvika music festival due to concerns about its potentially offensive content, The Local reported Tuesday.
"It may be inappropriate for us to participate in recruitment of that sort," agency representative Kai Oja said.
The posting said the festival was seeking people who aren't afraid to get naked and test new ideas.
"Intelligence is not a plus," the advertisement read. "We're looking for people with practical experience in such things as setting up tents in the rain. Making out in bars. Listening to loud music and dancing for hours in the mud."
"You should have a good understanding of social situations, be able to work/go with groups of drunken, crazy people," it read.
Jonas Linne, one of the festival's organizers, said he has already received about 100 applications for the job.
"We don't think it's offensive at all," he said. "Sometimes you get naked at festivals. It's nice to be naked."
