As dream jobs go, this one is sure to feature pretty high on people's wishlist. Finnish carrier Finnair is looking for quality hunters to travel to various cities in Europe, Asia and the US and assess flights, airports and destinations.
The world's fifth oldest airline has this month begun a search for four 'Quality Hunters' — independent advisors, whose task will be to travel to various destinations to investigate the elements that determine quality in travel.
"The Quality Hunters' mission will be to travel to cities in Europe, Asia and the US throughout October and November, assessing flights, airports and destinations. As independent advisors to Finnair, they are expected to communicate their impartial views and recommendations to the company on a regular basis throughout the two-month period," the airline said in a statement.
Finnair, which flies between New Delhi and Helsinki offering onward connections to the Europe and the US, has invited interested candidates to apply through its website before September 26.
"The recruitment of the Quality Hunters is one means for Finnair to focus more closely on issues that are important to today's travellers," said Antti Nieminen, Global Marketing Communications Manager at Finnair Plc. He explained that the efforts are part of the company's commitment to continuously improve its service proposition.
"We believe that the Quality Hunters' blogs will promote interesting and constructive discussions about travel," Nieminen said.
Visitors to Rethink Quality are encouraged to follow the blogs and participate in the dialogue. At the end of the two months, followers can vote for the Top Quality Hunter. Readers who vote or comment on the blogs will get the chance to win intercontinental flights for two between Europe and Asia with Finnair, the airline said.
