\"Spotify<\/a><\/p>\n

Losing a job is hard. And difficulty in figuring out your next adventure makes it even harder.<\/p>\n

Or maybe not, if you\u2019re the President of the United States<\/strong>! President Obama<\/strong> will soon leave his current position but it doesn\u2019t seem like he\u2019ll be unemployed for long.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

He recently made a joke that he wanted to work for Spotify<\/strong>. So Spotify <\/strong>has created a job on its careers page that the former president is specifically qualified for: \u201cPresident of the playlist\u201d.<\/p>\n

While the offer doesn\u2019t specifically mention Obama, the listing states that the applicant should have \u201cat least eight years experience running a highly-regarded nation\u201d. I think that his experience with diplomacy should help him with that.<\/p>\n

Having a Nobel prize is also well perceived by the recruiters. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

“Ever had Kendrick Lamar play at your birthday bash?”, the listing asks. Mr Obama called Lamar his favourite rapper when the artist joined him at his 55th birthday bash.<\/p>\n

Also, let\u2019s not forget that President Obama has some killer playlists, which he\u2019s been sharing since 2015. These include talented artists like Kendrick Lamar, Nina Simone, Bob Marley, Courtney Barnett and many more. He\u2019s even bragging about it, \u201cI\u2019m still waiting on my job at Spotify<\/strong>\u2026 Cuz I know y\u2019all loved my playlist,\u201d. That\u2019s what he said at an intimate White House reception just last week.<\/p>\n

Obama has some other hidden talents too; for instance, he recently danced to Hotline Bling, from the reigning spotify King: Drake.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s pretty clear that the music streaming service has only one candidate in mind, but if you think that you\u2019re a better fit than Obama, just apply<\/a>!<\/p>\n

However, I should warn you that it might be a bit hard to get the CEO and Founder of Spotify, Daniel Ek, to change his mind as he personally tweeted Obama asking him to have a look at the new offer:<\/p>\n

\u201cHey @BarackObama<\/a>, I heard you were interested in a role at Spotify. Have you seen this one? https:\/\/www.spotify.com\/us\/jobs\/view\/o0CA4fw0\/ \u2026<\/a>\u201d.<\/p>\n

Good luck on trying to deter him \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
