This is not for you job posting ad
Updated on

At first glance, the giant headline screams rejection: “This is not for you.” But wait. Scroll down and it flips — “unless you…” followed by a list of superstar traits. Classic reverse psychology at work.
Why this ad grabs you
- It tells you “no,” which instantly triggers curiosity.
- It challenges the reader’s ego — only the best need apply.
- It filters and attracts confident, ambitious candidates.
- It's visually bold: huge text, high contrast, minimal clutter.
Where you’ve seen this before
- Dollar Shave Club’s “Our Blades Are F***ing Great” ad — bold voice, selective tone.
- Apple’s “Think Different” — positioned as not for everyone, only for rebels.
- Patagonia’s “Don’t Buy This Jacket” — another great reverse-psychology hook.
