Easter is almost here, and since we’ll be covering a non-profit on Sunday, it’s time to talk about candy again! Last year we checked out entry level jobs at Just Born Quality Confections (the manufacturer of Peeps), so this year we need to give jelly beans their due respect. And if we’re talking about jelly beans, it’s hard to ignore Jelly Belly. Although I have a soft spot for those simpler jelly beans with less creative flavors (except for the nasty licorice flavored ones), I know that Jelly Belly is the king of the jelly bean industry. They offer an insane variety of flavors that includes Buttered Popcorn, Cotton Candy, Toasted Marshmallow, and Jalapeño. While Fairfield, CA basedJelly Belly has branched out a bit from their jelly bean roots, they seem quite committed to furthering the success of the bean. They’ve even brought jelly beans to the sports market to compete with the drinks and gels that most people are accustomed to.
Are You Ready for This Jelly?
It’s hard to go through the weeks leading up to and after Easter without popping at least one jelly bean in your mouth. That’s why it should be obvious to you to consider a job with Jelly Belly – assuming that you actually like jelly beans. How does one find a job with Jelly Belly? It’s pretty simple, you head over to their Careers page and see what’s available. Right now they’re looking for a Lead Web Developer, a Sales Manager – Sports Nutrition, and a Production Supervisor – Packaging. All of the requirements on these jobs say that they’ll take experience OR education, but that seems kind of crazy. It may be the case that none of the jobs are suitable for new college grads, but if you really love Jelly Beans, you’ll use the information on their Careers page to reach out to them and see if you can make something happen.
