How to tell a strong targeting specialist by the cases

Targeting specialists are in demand. An employer who knows little about targeting finds it hard to judge a candidate's skills, and the market also has people who simply drain the ad budget. A degree in the field is optional: specialists come after paid and free courses, so we judge by experience and numbers.

At the interview the recruiter asks the candidate to walk through 2–3 campaigns: the goal, the audience, the budget, what was tested and how it ended. We check the skills a targeting specialist cannot work without:

  • detailed analysis of the target audience;
  • Google Analytics;
  • budget planning that covers both the campaign and the tests;
  • work in ad accounts and with the tools of different platforms;
  • assessing the quality of the landing page or website the ads lead to;
  • personal experience of setting up and running campaigns.

What to send with a request for a targeting specialist

  • the product and the audience: whom you sell to and in which regions;
  • the platforms where ads run now or are planned, and the approximate monthly budget;
  • the goal: leads, sales, subscriptions, brand awareness;
  • who makes the creatives and the website or landing page;
  • the work format (office, hybrid, remote), the city and the salary range.
