Jobless During CoViD-19 Crisis? Don’t Worry! Cannabis Herald’s Hiring Product Reviewers

Even as governments relax the lockdown restrictions the world over, the global economy and livelihoods of people have already taken a turn for the worse. No matter whether you’re a top-ranking corporate official or a grassroots-level sales rep, you may find yourself in a Catch-22 situation.

While most companies and government departments are forced to downsize their teams, a large number of job seekers are undergoing hapless times, desperate to find alternative avenues to make ends meet.

The situation may seem hopeless – fast turning to grim – but it’s not all that gloomy everywhere.

In fact, there are still some Good Tidings for a chosen few, i.e. only if you love and understand cannabis the way we do!

Yes, you’ve heard that right!

Some cannabis products that are legal sell pretty well and so do everything relating to them! And that’s why a handful of companies in this industry are still hiring. One of them is the Cannabis Herald.

The Cannabis Herald, which is a well-known name in the cannabis world, is looking for ‘canna-be’s, who not only love and enjoy the benefits of cannabis, but also know quite a bit about it, its many facets, legalities, and brands, and can shed light on them to help others who can benefit from cannabis.

We, at the Cannabis Herald, are looking for those who love to research, confirm and verify facts and data, as well as try out products from different cannabis brands.

You’ll, of course, get paid handsomely for it! Add to that the fact that you don’t even have to step outside your home! You can work remotely – from the comfort of your own home!

It definitely sounds awesome, doesn’t it? Well, don’t get too confident! It’s still hard work…and we don’t just hire everybody who loves to smoke marijuana or vape CBD!

This resource portal is hiring people who can give their critical and unbiased opinion on different brands of products and their aspects through the written words as well as…wait for it…talk about – on video!

Do you think you can do that?

If you think you’re up for it, remember, we not only need you to be able to detect and eliminate the bad sheep from the market, but also openly elaborate on them – through your blogs, vlogs, articles, and product reviews – without any bias!

To better understand the positions that are being offered, read on to see if you qualify for them.

• Check out their websites for all available information, including their lab reports, the technology used, the source of cannabis, etc. The ease of shopping also matters.
