Want to work from home and love watching movies?
Ever wish you could get paid to do nothing? Well your dream might become a reality with one major streaming service offering a lucky candidate thousands of dollars to laze around on the couch and watch TV.
Prime Video Australia is on the hunt for a “Prime Video Buff” to stream content over summer and recommend their favourites to Aussies.
“Pretty much, doing what you do anyway - but you’ll earn money for it,” The job ad says.
“If you live for the latest series, love a shameless rom-com and box-office-breaking blockbuster or eat up spaghetti westerns for breakfast, we want you.”
The lucky candidate will be paid up to $40,000 for the three-month stint, which Prime says aims to help Australian audiences choose what to watch.
New national research conducted for the streaming platform revealed the average Australian has watched 67 movies and TV series this year alone.
The research also found while 46% of those surveyed enjoy AI recommended content, while 64% rely on word-of-mouth recommendations when picking a new movie or TV show.
TV host and podcaster Osher Gunsberg is helping recruit for the position, which he says needs someone who “must relish the thrill of exploring new genres and be an expert at all things pop-culture with TV and film knowledge”.
Prime Video Australia and New Zealand head Hushidar Kharas said the platform knows Australians love content but choosing what to watch can be a challenge.
“The Prime Video Buff role has been created to further help our customers discover something new,” Kharas said.
