Britannia Croissant is offering Rs 3 lakh for a one-day internship

Britannia is offering a lucrative internship opportunity to one lucky “Croissant pronunciation expert.” The Indian food products company is offering Rs 3 lakh for a one-day internship where the winner’s only job will be to walk around the Britannia office, correcting people who pronounce “croissant” incorrectly.

Sounds like easy money? It is, so long as you know how to pronounce croissant correctly. The buttery, flaky French pastry is very popular in India, but few Indians can pronounce it like the French do. Britannia Treat Croissant has therefore come up with a unique internship where one lucky person will get Rs 3 lakh for a day of teaching people how to pronounce croissant correctly.

Anyone over the age of 18 can apply for the internship.

Interested candidates can apply for the internship by registering on Britannia’s Whatsapp channel as the first part. The link to register is available on the Instagram bio of Britannia Croissant.
