Oscar Meyer has opened up applications for new drivers for its iconic Weinermobile . If you’ve dreamed of driving a 27-foot-long hot dog up and down the roads of America, you’ve got until Jan. 31 to apply for the job.

It’s a paid gig, too! Hotdoggers, as the drivers are called, earn a base salary of $35,600 as well as a weekly allowance of $150 for meals and personal travel. They also get 18 days of paid time off, full health benefits and (naturally) 100% of all of their hotel expenses covered.

Think you can cut the mustard and stand above the competition? Here’s what you’ll need to be considered for the job. ( You can apply here .) 

You’ll need a Bachelor’s degree, preferably in public relations, journalism, communications, advertising, or marketing. It helps to be bilingual. And introverts need not apply.

You’ll also need a driver’s license  and be able to work major holidays. And you’ll need to clear a background check.

Not only will you drive the iconic vehicle all over the country, you’ll represent Oscar Meyer at more than 200 events throughout the year. That will involve handing out more than 250,000 Wiener Whistles to fans.

Just be warned: A a lot of people relish this job. Less than 1% of applicants are selected for the 12 openings. Oscar Meyer says that makes it harder to become a Hotdogger than it is to get into an Ivy League university.

This will be the 38 ^th round of Hotdoggers. The Wienermobile has been traveling the U.S. since 1936.
