If gaming doesn't tickle your fancy, how about memes and bevs? Bud Light has revealed it wants to hire a CMO, which usually means a Chief Marketing Officer. But this CMO is very different.

The American beer company is looking to recruit an official Chief Meme Officer to help produce the best content possible. Sounds outrageous, right? But they are deadly serious.
The three-month stint will see the successful applicant not only earn an impressive $5,000 (£3,800) per month but will allow you to flex your meme muscles to the extreme. It's all to celebrate the launch of Bud Light Hard Seltzer - which is essentially alcoholic carbonated water with fruit flavouring.
The official press release states: "Knowing that a hard seltzer is only as good as its memes the brand wants to bring their creative to the next level , so they are in search of some fresh thinking.

"Starting today, the brand will recruit the best memers out there to join the brand's marketing team for the next three months to help curate epic Bud Light Seltzer memes."
