Junior SEO Specialist

AscentRemoteFull-timePosted today

Ascent is hiring a Junior SEO Specialist for a remote, full-time role at an agency that helps auto detailers in the US find clients. Pay runs from ₹2.9 LPA to ₹4.8 LPA, which is well above typical for similar jobs across India.

What you'd be working on

The work starts with keyword research and goes on to the pages and listings that help a client's business get found. The company also says it wants people who can handle communication with real clients.

  • Building pages: creating the web pages that go with the keyword work.
  • Local presence: looking after the Google Business Profile (GMB) and directory listings.
  • Tracking and reporting: following how things perform and reporting on it.

Who this is meant for

The posting asks for SEM, SEO and written English. One line says no experience is required, while another says prior SEO experience is a must. Treat the second as the safer reading and be ready to show some SEO work.

  • You must be available for night shifts.
  • Teamwork experience and good communication skills are a bonus, not a condition.
  • The role is remote, according to the post.

  • Set up a practice Google Business Profile or directory listing, and write down what you learnt about filling it in properly.
  • Learn to read basic search performance numbers and summarise them in a short, clear report.
  • Practise writing client-style updates in plain, correct English, since written English is on the skills list.
  • Think about how you would handle night shifts in your routine, and be ready to say so if asked.
