Mattel, the toy company behind Uno, is looking for a professional Uno player to test its new game, Uno Quatro. The position is a four-week gig that will pay $17,000.
The ideal candidate will be an expert Uno player with a passion for the game. They will be responsible for testing Uno Quatro, providing feedback on the rules and gameplay, and creating content to promote the game on social media.
“We’re looking for someone who’s just as passionate about throwing down a Draw 4 as they are engaging strangers in a game,” Mattel’s job description reads, in part. “Someone who knows how to play a reverse and likes to get WILD (in a nice-ish way). Is that you?”
So far, Uno’s TikTok post announcing the job has been viewed over 5.4 million times. It has also sparked mayhem in the comments section where users have been quick to shout about their eagerness to apply while also sharing their best memories of playing the card game.
“I FOUGHT FOR THIS MY ENTIRE CHILDHOOD, GIVE ME AND MY SIBLINGS THIS,” one user commented.
Meanwhile, one Uno enthusiast admitted, “I told my husbands parents I was pregnant during uno.”
“*writes down notes* Oh… You WILL be hearing from me,” another joked.
Uno Quatro is a new twist on the classic Uno game. It features four decks of cards, each with a different color and symbol. Players can stack cards of the same color or symbol to create sets, or they can use special cards to disrupt their opponents.
The job posting for the Uno wiz position states that Mattel is looking for someone who is “passionate about Uno, loves to play games, and is creative and engaging.” The company is also looking for someone who is “a good communicator and has experience with social media.”
If you think you have what it takes to be the next Uno wiz, you can apply for the position on Mattel’s website. The deadline to apply is August 15, 2023.
You can earn around $17,700 across the four-week period. https://t.co/8gG1GFwYBQ
