The game we all grew up on is now offering a paying position for someone who thinks they have what it takes to be a “chief uno player.”
According to CNN, the chief Uno player will make approximately $277 an hour which will land them about $4,444 a week! The big payout is for someone to help promote the toy company’s new edition of the game which will be called, “Uno Quatro.” Now the payout is only for four weeks, but all you have to do is play Uno Quatro with strangers in New York City and create social media content featuring the new game.

There are many different versions of Uno so I know your wondering what is going to make this game different. Well according to the report, Uno Quatro is the new version of Uno that combines connecting four tiles in a row, similar to Connect 4, with the classic Uno feature of matching numbers and colors. “We’re thrilled to offer a position to the ultimate Uno player to help introduce our brand-new game, Uno Quatro, to the world,” said Ray Adler, the global head of games at Mattel, in a statement.
September 13, is when the Chief Uno player will be able to teach players to play the game and participate in livestreams and interviews. Any US citizen over the age of 18 can apply, as long as they can fulfill the job requirements of being able to sit for long periods of time and can carry 50 pounds or more to move tents for game set up.
Mattel’s new position is part of a growing movement in which brands use stunts on social media to get people talking about their new product, said Tim Calkins, a marketing professor at Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management.

“This really reflects the state of marketing today…the question is how do you get people engaged and interested in a brand [like Uno] that has been around for 50 years,” Calkins says. “For many brands TikTok is the key.”
For Uno, Mattel is featuring their applications on TikTok to alert users of the easy new job, and the company is encouraging Uno lovers to apply by stitching their video before the August 10 deadline.
“I suspect many people have not thought about Uno in a very long time…then suddenly you see this on TikTok, and now you are interested in it again,” Calkins says.
