Toy maker Mattel, known for Barbie dolls and Hot Wheels cars, is looking for a new employee to promote its new edition of the Uno card game. The chosen user will be hired for the position of “Head of Players of Uno”.
According to the announcement, published on the game’s profile on TikTok last Tuesday (1st), candidates must record a video presenting themselves and answering four questions defined by Mattel: “What is your best memory playing Uno?”; “What was your best use of the “reverse card?”; “Why shouldn’t we bypass him for the role of ‘Head Players of Uno?’” and “What’s your favorite version of Uno?”.
The new hire’s salary will be US$ 4,444 a week, approximately R$ 21,600. As the work period lasts for 4 weeks, the new employee will receive a total of US$ 17,777, approximately R$ 86.7 thousand.

The four-hour workload must be completed in a building in New York, in the United States. Applicants must be of legal age and residents of the country.
Mattel’s initiative comes after director Greta Gerwig’s “Barbie” marks the biggest opening weekend of 2023, grossing $155 million (R$734.7 million) in the United States alone and $337 million (BRL 1.6 billion) globally.
What is the exact function of the “Head of Players of Uno”?
The person selected for the vacancy will have the task of creating content for social networks, giving interviews and challenging strangers to play the new version of the classic “Uno”, which now uses pieces instead of cards.
The new employee will also need to perform tasks that involve sitting for long periods, lifting and carrying heavy objects up to 22 kilos, as well as setting up game tables and tents on site.
