If youâve recently found yourself trapped in the candle-aisle of Homegoods smelling every candle on the shelf, youâd be pleased to know that what youâd normally do as a hobby might be your next big career move. Wishlisted.com, a lifestyle website focused on great products and better living, has opened up a search for three candle-critics to use their smell-savvy to test a variety of different candle brands and scents. Right in time for fall, I can only imagine the lucky winner of this dream job will get to frolic in warm, cozy scents like vanilla chai, spiced apple cider or even crackling leaves (do they have a scent-creating position, too? If so, Iâm available!).
Not only will Wishlisted.com give each Candle Critic a $250 stipend, theyâll also dole out $50 Starbucks gift cards, a cozy blanket and, of course, numerous fall candles to smell and critique. In order to apply for this odorous opportunity, all you have to do is complete the form on their website, including a creative statement about your candle sampling qualifications. Applications are open until 11:59pm ET on October 14th, 2020, and winners will be notified within a week!
Good luck, candle-sniffers!
