No office, no prior experience: Snoop Dogg launches unusual job search paying thousands to eat ice cream

Snoop Dogg has turned a family ice-cream tradition into an unusually attractive job offer. The California rapper and his son Cordell Broadus founded the Dr. Bombay ice-cream brand, and the company is now looking worldwide for its first official international ice-cream tester.

The role is remote and lasts three months. The successful applicant will earn $10,000 a month, receiving $30,000 in total while tasting ice cream and following the latest food trends from wherever they live.

The job involves more than enjoying samples. The tester will evaluate new products and combinations before launch, identify culinary trends and propose ideas for future releases. They will also provide direct feedback to the development team on texture, sweetness and the overall feel of each proposal.

The recruitment drive is open to applicants around the world. It is being conducted through LinkedIn, Deel's official channels and the singer's social media accounts. The page received more than 300,000 applications from cities worldwide in just two days.

Snoop Dogg, born Calvin Cordozar Broadus, founded the brand with his second son and partnered with global hiring platform Deel for the search. The article also places the venture within his long career, which has included music, film, television and other entertainment projects.
