Want a job working for the President of the United States? If that turns out to be George W. Bush, you can apply now -- online.

The Bush-Cheney team has created a new Web site including online and offline job applications for thousands of possible job openings in its presidential administration.

Titled Bringing America Back Together, Bush's presidential transition Web site states that the Bush-Cheney team is looking for "men and women of the greatest ability and highest ethical and professional integrity."

Before you dash off an application, the Web site also warns potential job applicants that:

• The hours are long and the pace intense.
  
• There is much public/press scrutiny, as you would expect in an open, democratic form of government such as ours.
  
• Most applicants under serious consideration for an appointment will go through a full FBI background check in which their employment, professional, personal, travel, medical, financial, legal, military and educational histories will be reviewed and scrutinized.
• The financial holdings and sources of income for most applicants under serious consideration must be disclosed for review for possible conflicts of interest, and any conflicts must be remedied by divestiture, the creation of special trusts, etc.
• Most appointees’ dealings with the Federal government during and for a period of time after their service will be significantly restricted to prevent possible conflicts of interest.
