An opportunity has come up for me to work as a Product Specialist (or Pet Detective as they like to call it) for Blue Buffalo. Essentially I would go pet store to pet store, trying to move pet parents over to the Blue Buffalo line of foods. I do definitively want this job, I love talking food as it is, and to be able to have a title for myself to back up my knowledge and to more readily educate pet owners about nutrition just gets me all a twitter.
Here's my dilemma: I have to explain why I want to work for Buffalo and tell a story about an experience with a pet and I'm not quite sure how to go about it. What I DONT want to do is come off as too smart. I don't want to let on that I know so much as to question why their weight management formula is actually counterintuitive to weight loss. I want them to know that I'm enthusiastic about bettering the health of pets without revealing that I already know that fresh fruits and veggies are absolutely unnecessary to cats.
Thoughts?
