Sleepjunkie, which describes itself as “a bunch of lifetime insomniacs who wanted something better than restless nights,” recently launched a new "dream" job. The sleep science and review platform is looking for an official mattress tester with a $3,000 salary to see how the COVID-19 pandemic is affecting the sleeping habits of Americans.
“This is why we were a little concerned when we took a look at our internal data and saw that search inquiries related to getting enough sleep have continued to rise over the last 12 months,” the company said on its website. “We also analyzed Google Search trends and found that searches in the U.S. related to getting enough sleep and for mattress advice reached a five-year high toward the end of 2020.”
The job itself is simple. The "employee" will be testing out three mattresses over a two-month period and provide their honest review. The reviewer will receive a $3,000 paycheck and be able to keep one of the mattress.
