Spotify created a job listing that's tailor-made for Obama
The Swedish music streaming giant posted a job listing for a President of Playlists, and they're looking for someone with a very specific skill set.
Spotify says the role involves identifying new playlist ideas ("e.g. from a playlist for shooting hoops with your friends, to the perfect warm up playlist for addressing the nation about health care legislation that bears your name"), and they'll also "attend daily briefings." The ideal candidate will have "at least eight years experience running a highly-regarded nation" and "a good team spirit, excellent work ethic, a friendly and warm attitude, and a Nobel Peace Prize."
That sounds like a job only one person could fill.
Spotify CEO Daniel Ek even tweeted the job posting to Obama himself:
The job listing likely came about after Obama told Swedish ambassador Mark Brzezinski that he's "still waiting for my job at Spotify...'cause I know y'all loved my playlist." Obama made his own curated playlist for Spotify last summer.
Hey @BarackObama, I heard you were interested in a role at Spotify. Have you seen this one? https://t.co/iragpCowpO
