Eat chocolate all day while getting paid for it sounds like a total dream, isn’t it!
It's February, the month of cupid and chocolates, so I was wandering around on the internet for some shopping and this news caught my attention.
Mondelez International, the company behind Cadbury treats and Oreo cookies, is looking for chocolate taste testers. The company is offering paid, part-time roles for chocolate lovers, though they must be honest. Four new roles have opened up at the company, including "Chocolate & Cocoa Beverage Taster" and "Chocolate Taster."
Who doesn't love chocolate? And who wouldn’t like to work as a Chocolate tester?
You are required to have:
- Tastebuds for detection.
- Passion for confectionery.
- Eager to try new and inventive products
Salary:
The pay is £9 per hour ($16).
Working Hours:
The part-time position asks for just 7.5 hours per week with the shifts taking place between 9.30am and 12pm every Tuesday to Thursday or every Monday to Thursday from 3pm to 5pm.
Other Benefits:
Aside from the eating Cadbury chocolate and Oreo biscuits each day, the job also comes with a holiday allowance and pension, and on top of that you can purchase additional life assurance.
As per one article: The company began the search for similar roles last year and received over 1,500 applications in just a single day. And that original job posting is the fifth most viewed on LinkedIn for obvious reasons.
The company is asking for applicants to not only be able to provide "objective and honest feedback," but also to collaborate with a panel in order to forge an agreement on taste, to accurately describe the taste of the treats using strong vocabulary skills, and to understand the company's ethical requirements, therefore ensuring quality. |Insider|
