Best. Job. Ever. Netflix want to pay you to watch TV…

"The role will offer flexible hours working from home and would suit those with a passion for films and TV." Oh my.

“The role will offer flexible hours working from home and would suit those with a passion for films and TV.” Oh my.

We’ve all got our own list of dream jobs don’t we? Being a full-time chocolate taster at Cadbury’s factory is right up there, as well as being Jennifer Lawrence’s pouting practise partner for scenes of a kissing nature and, of course, working for JOE.

*JOE turns to camera and winks knowingly*

Well, it’s time to add a new dream job to your list because online streaming giants Netflix have just announced that they’re looking for a brand new Netflix Tagger to work here in Ireland and the UK.

A Tagger is a person whose job it will be to – wait for it – watch hours and hours of TV and movies in order to assess the genre, tone and personality of content, all in order to determine what Netflix viewers might want to watch next. So, it’s essentially what you’ve been doing since the day you opened your own Netflix account, except now you’re actually going to get paid for it.

Ha! Take that Mammy and Daddy JOE, we TOLD you all of our “research” would pay off some day.

You can read the job spec in full by clicking here and also check out the very handy explanatory clip below but, believe us, there’s really no point because JOE’s got this one in the bag…

Right, we’re away off to continue our indepth interview preparation.

*JOE sticks on Maid In Manhattan for the 14th time*
