Calling all chocolate lovers: Nutella is hiring taste testers
Calling all Nutella lovers. A position has arisen to taste the beloved chocolatey spread for a living.
Officially known as “sensory judges,” they will be required to work just four hours a week over two days, so the position can presumably be worked around another job, though you will have to be based in Alba, north-west Italy, where the company headquarters are located.
Duties will include tasting ingredients like cocoa and hazelnuts which are used to make the nutty spread, the English-language publication reports.
Rather than employing professionals with experience in this field, the company is said to prefer "regular customers" as candidates, and it’s apparently a bonus if they're not highly educated in nutrition. The only requirements are that hopefuls can use a computer and do not have any allergies - obviously.
According to the listing, which was posted on Open Job Metis, the role begins in September after which the successful applicants will undergo three months of training to sharpen their tasting and smelling capabilities.
So what are you waiting for?
