How are you staying cool this summer weekend? Ice-cold treats always help.
Back in the day, Snickers fans would freeze their candy bars as a DIY dessert alternative, once we got tired of eating the same old ice cream over and over again. Then came the official Snickers Ice Cream Bars, which made things much easier for consumers.
More recently, the beloved candy brand unveiled Ice Cream Minis, and coinciding with the launch is Snickers’ search for a newly created position at the company: a so-called “Chief Online Chill Officer.”
Snickers has taken to social media this week to promote its exciting new employment opportunity — a paid, two-week mini-gig where one fan will “earn an unofficial C-sweet title to help bring more chill, fun and a little deliciousness to people’s feeds,” according to a recent news release.
“We’re looking for someone who not only embodies chill but can spot when the internet is un-chill,” reads the caption of Snickers’ Instagram post earlier this week. “Sound like you? Head to the link in our bio and share a video telling us why you’re right for this opportunity.”

Fans have since commented on the post to express their intrigue and excitement. “Chillest girl clocking in,” wrote one Instagram user, while another person commented, “My husband needs to apply!!”
Snickers reiterated the opportunity with a fresh Instagram post on Friday, July 31, asking in the caption: “Do you have what it takes to be our first ever Chief Online Chill Officer?” One excited user commented, “is this allowed? did the scientists say it was okay to pack that many peanuts and delicious ice cream into a mini snackable treat?! please hire me.”
Per the company, the “Chief Online Chill Officer” title comes with plenty of opportunities to sample the brand’s five Minis flavors. Throughout their experience, the “officer” will create social content and vlogs, capture behind-the-scenes moments and give followers an inside look at the “chillest experience of the summer.”
Applications close August 4 at 11:59 p.m. ET. Find out more here.
