🚀 Marketing Director @ ApplyToMe.ai

We're flipping the broken job market on its head.

(US Only- Full time - Remote)

The Problem We're Solving

The hiring market is completely broken:

Job seekers send 200+ applications into the void
Companies drown in unqualified resumes
Nobody trusts the process anymore
LinkedIn and Indeed own the game, and it sucks for everyone

We're done with it.

What We Built

ApplyToMe is a reverse job board where companies apply to YOU.

No more spray-and-pray applications. No more ghosting. No more "we'll keep your resume on file."

Candidates create profiles with transparent salary expectations, must-haves, and deal-breakers. Companies discover them and compete for their attention.

We're making the job search human again.

Where We're At

5,000+ candidates on the platform
Growing 40% month-over-month
Backed by our own revenue (bootstrapped and proud)
Early traction with companies who are tired of the old way

We're at the inflection point. We need someone to pour gasoline on this fire.

The Role: Marketing Director

You'll own growth. All of it.

What You'll Do

Growth & Acquisition (40% of time)

Drive 10,000+ candidate signups per month (we're at 3,000 now)
Build partnerships with bootcamps, universities, career coaches
Launch and scale our affiliate program (turn job seekers into marketers)
Experiment with paid acquisition (once we prove channels)

Community & Engagement (20% of time)

Build a community of job seekers who evangelize us
Turn customers into case studies and testimonials

Create FOMO around being part of the ApplyToMe movement

Who You Are

You're not a "marketer" - you're a builder.

Must-Haves

✅ You've built before - Started a side project, grew a newsletter to 10k+, went viral consistently, or scaled a startup from 0→1

✅ You understand distribution - You know how to get attention without spending money (SEO, content, community, partnerships)

✅ You can create content - You write, film, edit, or design. You don't need a team to ship.

✅ You're hungry - This isn't a 9-5. You work nights and weekends because you're obsessed.

✅ You get the problem viscerally - You've been ghosted by 50 companies. You've hated the job search. You want revenge.

Bonus Points

🎯 You've gone viral on LinkedIn or TikTok (1M+ views)

🎯 You have a personal brand (10k+ followers anywhere)

(Higher for proven track record of scaling 0→1)

+ 1-3% equity

(Real ownership in something that could be massive)

+ Performance bonuses

(Hit growth targets = make more money)

Culture

Remote-first - Work from anywhere

Async by default - Deep work > meetings

Ship fast, learn faster - We move like a startup should

Ownership over everything - Your ideas = your execution = your wins

Perks

Unlimited PTO (actually use it)
Health insurance (US-based)
$1,000/year learning budget
Latest tools (Figma, Notion, whatever you need)
Work with a founder who's all-in

Why This Matters

Most marketing roles are about moving numbers on a dashboard.

This one is different.

You're not just growing a platform. You're fixing a broken system that's made millions of people feel worthless.

Every candidate who joins ApplyToMe is someone who's been ghosted, undervalued, or ignored by the current system.

Every viral post you create is a middle finger to LinkedIn and Indeed.

Every company that joins is proof that there's a better way.

This is a movement disguised as a marketing role.

If that excites you, keep reading.
