Guys, this is a startup. They hire 25 year olds with 3 years accounting background as CFOs for $75k.

Titles aren't the same everywhere, and this job isn't expecting someone like you, it's expecting you 10+ years ago. It can't afford anything more but needs the work done, so it hires the best it can. Someone cheap and hungry. Same as any startup

Actually he was just a glorified Personal Assistant. And the CEO was 33.

You lost me at Craigslist.

This is not a Creative Director job. The description seems to be for a social media video content writer/producer/editor. Not to say that makes it any better, but they don’t actually know what they’re even asking for.

Subscriptions for things, the "Netflix of X" is a hook.

Go to Mott and Bow. There's no technology powering this to excited VCs. VCs aren't investing heavily into d2c brands without them being unique. Like allbirds, with it's special materials. Warby Parker with it's philanthropy.

Trust me, Mott and Bow does not have much VC money. If they did, they would not be looking to underhire.

Throw me a link. I’ll take it way too far and post for your amusement.

@AD1 - It’s not solely a creative issue. Lots of other professions, people try to take advantage.

I mean. They posted their job on Craigslist so they’re beyond saving at this point.
