    Hershey is going to start making chocolate??

      Their brown wax seems to be selling well enough. Not sure why they would change it up now.

        Too many people are sticking a wick in the ‘chocolate’ and getting some very long lasting candles and, like most big companies, they really didn’t like people getting any real value for money so they’ve dropped the wax.

        Obviously it’ll still taste like shit, just not waxy shit.

      I thought they only sold brown-colored sugar.

    It’s definitely Willy Wonka’s American branch factory

    What the actual fuck… I need to find someone who is deeply familiar with the types of jobs a person could have.

    If you told me “chocolate technology specialist” was a thing, I’d have probably gone to college for it. Instead I’m stuck in a factory, just dreaming about chocolate… And then going home and eating it lol

      I know someone who did go into food science to get into a chocolate production factory - they were done eating chocolate for good after their first 6 months.

      Turns out all you can eat samples is a great way to get food fatigued real fast.

        The best way to hate something you love is to make it your job.

        I was once at some children party thingy where they had free cotton candy. My friend and I ate so much that we completely swore off of the stuff for all eternity.

        Then I went and got married to a gal with a cotton candy machine…

        My brother in law did similar…worked in a chicken factory, not in production, for a while…put him off chicken for a year or so.

        Not if you work at a brewery.

      I’m a system integrator, and though I don’t do it right now, I’d consider myself an expert in dairy. I could see someone specializing in chocolate similarly.

      The reason people don’t know about these jobs is because they aren’t advertised very well. My MS in mechanical engineering barely touched on it and I sort of fell into it on accident by knowing someone in the industry.

        How does one find about these jobs? I think my dream job will be something obscure like this but I don’t know what to pick for university because I don’t know what obscure job it’ll be.

      *Palmer, dollar store “chocolate”.

      • WolfmanEightySix@piefed.social ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        You could just say USA chocolate.

  • Someonelol@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Just copy paste the job description to Google and it’ll likely end up to the original job posting. These recruiters are so lazy they don’t think anyone will ever get to their secret client lol.

    source
    • CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      This is the real LPT. Recruiters are so annoying to deal with. Avoid them if you can.

      source
  • bdonvr@thelemmy.club ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    To be fair it it could very easily be a contractor for Hershey’s, or a vendor that works on/sells their equipment.

    source
  • helpImTrappedOnline@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    You’ll be working for Slugworth

    The Hershey ice cream company, which (this is real) is not associated with the famous chocolate maker

    Wait do people seriously apply to mystery companies? I’d interpret this as the company knowing their reputation is bad.

    Tell you what, I’ll apply if you don’t need to see my name until I’m hired.

    source
    • surewhynotlem@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      It’s not always because their reputation is bad. Sometimes they have a really bad employee that they want to replace, but who will definitely know if their job is posted. This happens a lot at the executive level.

      • TexasDrunk@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        And a lot of recruiting companies are afraid you’ll bypass them and go apply directly, thus cutting out the middle man and they’re not allowed to send out goons to break your kneecaps.

      It’s a legal thing in the EU. Neither side can see the others details.

        I can understand not wanting discrimination on employees, but we really ought to be allowed to google businesses before spending our time applying. Some of them are blatant scams!

    Kirby vacuums. They need someone familiar with chocolate because a vacuum can clean chocolate

    It is a mystery.

  • LordOfTheFlatline@lemmy.zip ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Clearly someone at the company has been betrayed hard enough to become a supervillain. They seek to destroy the company from the inside. The job is for hacking the chocolate making machines and committing arson.

      They want the OP to steal an Everlasting Gobstopper.

    Damn, I didn’t know anyone was hiring for industrial espionage! Never heard of that career path.

  • someguy3@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Well, is this there situation where many chocolate companies conglomerate to a specific area?

    source
  • NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Maybe they’re planning to start making chocolate.

    source
  • OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Ew, Hershey chocolate is gross. It tastes like vomit. No wonder they’re hiring anonymously.

    Ngl I suspect a smaller brand using sneaky bait and switch

    Maybe it’s some sort of closet code for the Hershey highway…

    It’s Hershey Ice Cream brand
