The types of cars involved and the total number of such incidents in each individual film should also be highlighted too. This is so FinanceBuzz can use the data, to "estimate the insurance impact of the franchise’s reckless driving." “We need help taking inventory of the accidents in the movies,” the company said in their advert. "We’re also curious if the number of wrecks in these moves has increased or decreased over the franchise’s history. That’s where you come in." With over 20 hours to watch, the Fast & Furious Claims Adjuster will be paid $1,000, as well as $100 to cover the cost of any streaming fees, movie tickets, and snacks too. In order to be eligible for the role, applicants need to be able to rent or stream movies from their home and be able to watch Fast X in a theatre. You must be 18+ years old and based in the U.S. to apply. If this role revs your engine, then to apply simply fill out the form on the FinanceBuzz website by May 19, 2023, at 11:59 Eastern.
