If you know your way around Macs,  can untangle the gnarliest iPod problems and love sales, Apple wants you for its retail stores.

To handle the general surge in customers — Apple’s 5th Avenue store is outperforming Tiffany’s, to name just one — the stores are adding a new role called “Expert.”

Previously these were internal promotions, so it sounds like you’d have to be a cut above the average “Genius”  with an interest in sales and management.

Apple’s ideal Expert from the job description:

•    (Seeks) A career in sales where you can share your passion for Apple in a fast-paced and dynamic team environment.
•    You love working with people — it energizes you.
•    You embrace Apple’s standards of customer service and live them every day.
•    You like being the first person on the block to touch new technology. And you like to share that knowledge.
•    You love learning. And you’ll learn from people every day.

If you think you can cut it, it looks like every Apple retail store is on the lookout for in-house Experts to don the new sky-blue T-shirt.
