Who clicks on ads? Who goes to facebook to look for jobs? Why would you pay per click for a job posting?

The cynical part of me suspects this will enable monocultures and discrimination.

Just doesn't make sense.

Logically no one. People go to LinkedIn and other work-related sites. BUT facebook being who they are and tracking you in (almost) each and every website on the planet (that silly like/share button) they "know" that you are job hunting and leverage on that knowledge.

Ok, more to the point, do they really expect prospective, quality engineers to click on facebook ads? Especially for someone with the brand recognition (for better or worse) of uber.

If it looked legitimate, I'd click...
