Recently, a job listing was posted on LinkedIn by a Canadian candy house looking for the world’s first and only Chief Candy Officer (CCO)!
In their job posting, the CCO would be required to eat up to 113 types of candy EACH day. This has sparked some debate as it exceeds the limit by nearly 5 times according to the dietary guidelines provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Health and Human Services.
But don’t worry, the company has promised a few ‘perks’ including an extensive dental plan!
In their post, they stated:
“We are looking for the worldâs first and only Chief Candy Officer! This opportunity is work-from-home and pays up to $100k (RM450k) per year!”
“This includes approving all candy in inventory and deciding whether or not to award each treat with the official âCCO (Chief Candy Officer) Stamp of Approvalâ.Â
Kids as young as 5-years-old can apply and here are the requirements:
- Enthusiasm and eagerness to try candy products
- Creative mind
- Natural born leaders
- Obvious sweet tooth
- Golden taste buds (don’t worry, an extensive training will be provided if you’re selected!)
- Excellent communication skills
- Fluent in English
- No food allergies
- Knows how to have fun
The deadline to submit the application is on August 31, 2022. As of now, over 6,500 applicants have applied!
Would you be up for a job that just requires you to taste candies in return for RM450k annually?
