This Singaporean durian shop is calling for ‘noobs’ to work with them.
Since April, a Singaporean durian shop known as 99 Old Trees Durian has been offering a position for anyone who’s interested in becoming a durian seller. With zero experience required, the job ad openly says that they’re recruiting “noobs” who will learn the skills of basic durian recognition, basic knife handling, and identifying fruit damage on the job!
Their amusing and job ad caught the attention of netizens with its hilarious pitch. However, that’s not the only thing that’s eye-catching about the job. According to the ad, hired applicants can earn up to $3,500 (RM10,873) a month with a $500 (RM1,553) sign up bonus!
With the slogan, “Earn, learn and burn”, their advertisements have been featuring gym-related content since the announcement of gym closures throughout Singapore until 30 May due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
