The local community in Saalfelden, Austria, offers one of the loneliest jobs in the world. The locals are looking for a hermit, who is expected to live in a hut in the mountains without any modern facilities.
The person who will be chosen for this position will have no access to electricity, heating, internet or even a salary.

The applications are being received by a local priest, Alois Moser. Several applicants have already demonstrated their interest in the vacancy.

I've been to Zell am See. Beautiful place. Tempting!

There are, or were, other lonely jobs. Something about the lack of an exit route makes this feel more lonely.
