I love that they shamelessly put this in the ad

• High degree of data manipulation and interpretation to present entertainment market data in a clear and concise manner to client specifications

Misconstrue those stats babes!

I reach state retirement age next March, so the 14-month contract is quite tempting, particularly as I have experience as a data analyst.

Data manipulation doesn't have to mean "fiddling the data"!

The lack of a salary could mean that it is very low. It could, OTOH, mean that it will depend on the type of person they get. They could be willing to pay more for someone with a better skillset and/or more exsperience.

If I apply, I will have to describe myself as a multihyphenate

If I were to go for this (and I won't), I would want pinch the data since streaming was included and see what impact it would have if a user's lifetime stream cap was set at 1 sales per song with a value of 0.1 sale per stream. Lol

Broken record time. Lol

I really do believe that your average streamer (based on talking to people I know, or being around then when their music is on) listens to a small pool of songs well in excess of 10 times, and that it would do wonders to speed up the chart. With 'Rein Me In' doing hundreds of thousands of streams for literally months now, surely a big chunk of those will be well past their 10th stream (and hence they've essentially proven that they liked the song and another song's turn at the top)?

Surely people listening to the Top 40 want to be hearing something new? It would also help drive interest in the chart as fanbases would have a better shot at making an impact - even if it's just for one week, that could be what it takes for <airplay to ramp up>/<the one person that hears it on the chart show and then makes a tiktok which goes viral>, making it's way to more ears!

Worth a punt.
