Specifically, the zoo wants to recruit drivers to drive specialized vehicles to the tiger mountain and bear cave areas with a salary of 50,000 yuan (nearly 185 million VND) a month. The special salary and special job have attracted the attention of the public in this country because not everyone has the health and courage to apply.

Along with that, many people expressed skepticism about the authenticity of the recruitment information, whether it is accurate or just a media trick.

On October 23, a zoo representative confirmed that the recruitment information was completely true. Since the time of posting, the zoo has received more than 2,000 applications.

Jobs for people with a strong spirit

According to information in the video posted by the zoo, the applicant's main job is to drive a specialized vehicle into the release area of ​​wild animals such as Siberian tigers, African lions, black bears, wolves...

In addition, staff need to guide visitors to experience what it is like to face the roar of the king of the jungle directly.

The job requires drivers to drive close to wild animals roaming the reserve. Drivers are trained to open the car doors for tourists to use specialized tools such as fishing rods to catch meat and throw food to the predators.

If there are many passengers, the driver may have to catch 100 to 200 ducks a day to feed the tigers and lions.

Although the salary is very attractive, the zoo representative emphasized that candidates must meet many strict criteria. Specifically, successful candidates must have a valid driver's license with at least 5 years of driving experience. Drivers must be proficient in driving special vehicles, have a strong spirit and extremely fast reflexes, and be ready to respond to situations in dangerous environments.

After the application screening round, the selected candidates will have to undergo a training program with wild animals. During this process, candidates will be directly guided by experienced drivers. After completing the entire training process, the candidates will officially start working. Currently, the zoo is only recruiting for one position.

The country’s media has described it as “China’s most dangerous job.” Despite this, thousands of people have rushed to apply. Although the deadline for applications was November 15, within a few days, the number of applications exceeded expectations.

The job is considered risky, but for many, the high salary and "unique" reputation are still attractive.

The recruitment information quickly climbed to the top of searches on Weibo, accompanied by hundreds of thousands of humorous comments. "The salary is attractive, but sometimes you have to use the internet to exchange for money," one account commented on Weibo.
