What is your expected monthly gross salary? Please state the amount and the currency (for example, "USD 8,000 per month").

Compensation is not fixed in the advert, so give us a realistic monthly figure for a full-time senior media buying role, plus the currency and whether you would invoice as a contractor or be employed.

What is the earliest date you could start?

If you are serving notice, give the first date you could realistically begin.

How many years have you spent buying paid media on Meta for ecommerce/DTC brands?

Count only hands-on time in the ad account, not broader marketing or management roles.

Which best describes your paid-media work over the last 12 months?

Pick the single closest match.

Have you personally been accountable for the CAC/ROAS target on a Meta account spending seven figures a month (USD 1M+ per month)?

"Accountable" means you made the cut, scale and structure decisions and owned the number, not that you worked on a team that spent it.

What is the largest monthly Meta ad spend you have personally managed?

Peak month, in USD, on accounts where you made the buying decisions.

Which of these have you personally owned, hands-on, in the last two years?

Tick only what you did yourself or directly supervised.

Daily pacing and cut/scale decisions Account structure and naming conventions Pixel/CAPI setup and attribution troubleshooting Cost controls (ROAS goal, cost cap, bid cap) Briefing creative from account data Landing-page and offer testing Weekly performance reporting to a CMO/founder Managing a junior buyer Coordinating a Google or external agency Meta Business Manager assets, access and backups

Share a link to evidence of your work: a weekly media-buying report, an account audit, a performance case study, or live/finished ads you produced.

One link, publicly accessible or with sharing enabled (Drive, Notion, Loom, Dropbox). Redact client names and absolute revenue if you must, but keep the metrics, dates and your role visible.

Describe the single best-performing ad or test you personally produced at scale: the account and spend level, the result, why you believe it worked, and how account data shaped the creative direction that followed.

Aim for 150–300 words. Be specific about numbers (spend, CAC/ROAS, time period) and about what you changed versus what the creative team changed.

You take over a Meta account spending $1.2M a month. Blended ncROAS has fallen 25% over the last three weeks while spend has held flat, and the junior buyer launched 40 new ads during that period. Walk us through your first 72 hours: what you check, in what order, what you would cut, hold or keep testing, how much data you need before deciding, and what you would tell the CMO at the end of the week.

A paragraph or two. We are reading for diagnosis order, how you separate noise from signal, and how clearly you would communicate the plan.
