The poll results are in from Monster’s New Year, New Career survey and 96% of surveyed workers are looking for a new job in 2023.

For recent college graduates, there are not one but two brand mascot adjacent opportunities available to add to your resume. PLANTERS is on the hunt for three Peanutters to chauffeur the iconic Mr. Peanut. And the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile is seeking 12 applicants to join the 36th Hotdogger class.

Think you have what it takes to drive either of these iconic vehicles? Here’s what you need to know about each position and how to apply for the jobs.

Job Title: Peanutter

Your next adventure is about to be nutty! The three Peanutters chosen for this position will drive the one and only Mr. Peanut from coast to coast in the famous NUTmobile. This vehicle is a 26-foot-long peanut on wheels and it “shellebrates” every community it visits.

Peanutters must be able to represent the PLANTERS brand in media interviews, be adept in engaging with consumers, willing to join in volunteer projects and make sure anyone who sees the NUTmobile and Mr. Peanut has a positive brand experience. This a full-time role lasting for one year from June 2023 through June 2024.
