You don’t say where; you don’t say how much.  
You don’t want us to waste your time with our CVs if we’re nowhere  
near, or it’s not in our remuneration target.

This is an international list so it would be a good idea to say where  
in the world this job is. Even for American readers the state, if not  
the city, would be a great help.

As a recruiter it does not look good if you favour vapid buzzwords over  
facts.

“Participate in digital music product discussions” == “Attend meetings”
