Not getting the response you want from your job posting?
The issue may very well be your job description… or lack thereof. Let me ask you this question - what is your reaction when you get a sloppy application or poorly written resume for your job opening? It’s a winning bet that a job seeker has the same reaction when clicking on a posting, only to find a poorly written job description – minimal details, no day-to-day duties, nothing but vague description and, frankly, junk that leaves the applicant guessing what it is you really want.
Often what happens is you, the employer, get frustrated with job seekers in the market and may start to think there are simply no quality applicants… or you may have no applicants at all. Or perhaps you get frustrated with the website on which you posted the position and think it’s the site that is ineffective. The reality is that your description of what you want to hire for is ineffective.
Do you know the seven steps to an effective job description? Do you know what it takes to draw in the talent you are seeking?
Let’s keep this simple. In my next article, I will discuss for job seekers the key parts to a great resume.
But for now, let’s start with the key aspects of a great job description.
