IKEA is opening a store inside Roblox. The virtual store called The Co-Worker Game will open on June 24, which is only ten days away, and they are still looking for professional employees. Yes, the store will be manned by virtual employees, but the job still requires real people to manage those avatars. The ten paid employees will help manage IKEA employees who are playing the game in real time, and you'll be dealing with real IKEA tasks, like showing customers the furniture they need and serving meatballs.
If you have sworn to never work in retail, you might rethink that vow if you can do it from your home keyboard, sitting down. The positions are fully remote, but you must live in the UK or Ireland, and you must be over 18. The pay is hourly, at £13.15, or €14.80. You can apply for one of the ten positions through the IKEA website, but applications must be in by Sunday. How long will the job last? That's still up in the air, since we don't know how successful The Co-Worker Game will be. But an opportunity like this doesn't come along often. -via Metafilter
