Job description plays a crucial part in getting the right workforce to join you. A perfect job description will understand the potential candidates excited about the opportunity that they are being offered, but at the same time, it shall reflect the purpose of hiring clearly.
Here are 10 tips for writing a perfect job description:
A title that speaks for itself
Imagine a person scrolling about 100 jobs in a day, what makes him stop at one job and read the description? Well, that is the job title! A job title must be appealing enough to insist the potential candidate read further as well, and it shall make the job-seeking process easier.
Make the introduction interesting
After the title has done its job, the next thing that the candidate will read is your company introduction. Never be dull, rude, or too formal in your introduction part because that might repel the candidate away. He might think of the company as a no-friendly environment to work in.
Do not overload it with information
Nobody needs to know too much about your company to apply for a specific position there. If you put a lot in the job description, there is a fair chance that a potential candidate might skip reading and scroll back.
Don’t be mysterious
Overloading is one thing, and lacking the vital information in the job description format is another. Do not miss out on the important information that your candidates need to know about the company.
Connect with the candidate throughout
Never lose the tone and connect throughout the job description. The candidate shall feel like you are there explaining the job position to him. This will help them understand the company better and apply sooner.
State clearly what you require
Before the candidates apply for the position, it is ideal that they know what their responsibilities will be and what are the skills that you require. This will save time for both parties.
Sell the position
While you connect with the employee, you should sound appealing to them. The job position should feel like a one-time opportunity for the ones that fit. You shall say whatever it takes to sell your job position to potential clients.
They shall know the reward
No candidate would apply for a job that has not stated what they offer as a reward for the employee’s services. Revealing the salary might not be a good option, but giving a slight idea about the range could be beneficial.
Tell them what they will need to do
State clearly every day to day responsibility that the candidate will perform under this position and what are you recruiting them for. This helps them to evaluate if they are a fit for the position or not.
End it powerfully
Not just the introduction, but the conclusion might end well too. End with a positive note and reflect hope to hear back from them soon.
These were 10 tips that will help you make a great job description, one that attracts the potential candidate and saves extra effort and time. For more help, you shall have a look at some perfect job description examples.
