Musk and Ramaswamy's DOGE opens hiring on X

The new Department of Government Efficiency, a group created by President-elect Donald Trump with the task of identifying ways to cut federal spending and headed by billionaires Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, is already taking resumes. The request for job applicants was posted Thursday by the new X account for DOGE, which despite its heady mission isn't an official government department. In his statement on Tuesday announcing the effort, Trump described Musk and Ramaswamy's role as providing "advice and guidance from outside of government." It's unclear where the funding for DOGE will come from or the size of its budget, as well as whether Musk, the world's richest person, and Ramaswamy, who has an estimated net worth of $1 billion, will be paid for their efforts. The Trump campaign didn't respond to a request for information.
