The job scope will involve sweat and blood, according to the ad, but "zero experience required".
"In fact, we love working with noobs," one Facebook post said.
Skills that one can expect to take away from this experience: basic durian recognition, basic knife handling and recognising fruit damage.
The position will be available from June to August, and the pay will start from S$11 an hour. This rate is expected to increase with an increase in skill-level.
In addition, there will be a S$500 sign-up bonus.
One can expect to earn up to S$3,500 a month, although it is unclear how they arrived at this amount.
