The Twitch streamer QTCinderella (28) is very busy. Therefore, she sought someone to support her via Twitter. However, the requirements for her personal assistant raised eyebrows, as they are expected to wash dishes and are not allowed to stream themselves.
What kind of streamer is she? For QTCinderella, 2022 was a successful year where she could finally step out of the shadow of her boyfriend, YouTuber Ludwig Ahgren.
The streamer managed to increase her viewer count by 70% and organized several major events, including the Streamer Awards, which took place again this year. However, the efforts of the past year left their marks:
On Twitter, QTCinderella is now looking for a personal assistant to support her with her work.
Applicants must meet 6 requirements
What was the job offer like? With a tweet, the 28-year-old publicly announced her search for a PA on March 15. She did not specify what tasks would be involved, but some can be inferred from her list of criteria.
Among other things, the following are required:
- thorough understanding of Twitch/the streaming field
- interest in/experience with events
- no aversion to washing dishes
The new assistant of QTCinderella will likely help her plan and organize her streams and events and also assist with washing up.
Furthermore, the person should live in Los Angeles and thus be close to the streamer, bring a recommendation from an acquaintance, and have no ambitions to produce content themselves. We have embedded the tweet here:
Users criticize: “So you are looking for a serf?”
What annoyed Twitter users about the post? Besides some serious and some humorous responses, criticism of QTCinderella arose in the comments under the tweet. One user even accused her of looking for a “personal slave” (via Twitter).
Particularly two of the conditions clearly upset the critics: the requirement about washing dishes and the restriction on not being able to work as a content creator themselves. Twitter users accused the streamer of wanting to stifle creativity. Others believed that what she was actually looking for was probably a dishwasher (via Twitter).
How does QTCinderella respond? The 28-year-old responded to some of the comments and explained what the conditions were about. Right from the start: it should be a full-time position that is appropriately compensated (via Twitter).

Streamer defends her conditions
Why does the assistant have to wash dishes? QTCinderella is a passionate baker and used to professionally decorate cakes. Therefore, she enjoys hosting baking streams, after which often a mountain of used dishes is left behind.
On Twitter she writes that sometimes there simply isn’t enough to do to fill a full-time position, and washing dishes often takes her 2 hours. So, for the streamer, this seems like a practical solution.
In the “Fear&” podcast of political streamer HasanAbi, she went into more detail on the subject on March 20. The job of the PA is to keep her on air as long as possible. If she feels exhausted and knows that she has 2 hours of dishwashing ahead, she might end a baking stream early.
However, it is specifically about the baking streams, not about general household help. QTCinderella adds that it is probably the worst part of the job, hence she wanted to address it openly.
What’s behind the content ban? The streamer also has an explanation for this: it’s about privacy. Her assistant should not be able to exploit her life for content:
Even if this person went home and streamed League of Legends, they could say: “Oh, I was at QT’s house today and she and Ludwig had an argument.
You can watch the entire episode of the podcast in English on YouTube. The topic is discussed from minute 39.
Besides the critics, there are also people who understand the 28-year-old. Especially the part about the content is very important, so she doesn’t have to worry that someone just wants to exploit her for her reach (via Twitter).
On March 12, QTCinderella hosted this year’s Streamer Awards, where she honored content creators from Twitch and YouTube. However, there was quite a bit of excitement at the subsequent afterparty. Perhaps that was the decisive factor in the streamer’s decision to seek an assistant.
