B. Some film providers like Netflix employ people to watch new films and TV series,
then ask them to make a note of what type of film it is (horror, rom-com, etc.), what
age group and type of person might like it. The film provider can then recommend it
to their members. Joe Mason finished his degree in film studies about two years ago
and didn’t know what to do next. Then he read an article about film taggers. The job
was so fantastic, and he wrote to Netflix. At first, they weren’t interested, but when
Joe told them he speaks fluent French, they gave him a job. He watches French films
and TV programmes. “It’s a great job because I can have flexible working hours,”
said he. The only problem with the job is that Joe can’t choose what he wants to
watch.
