Tips for Writing Effective Job Postings

December 17, 2009

Today’s tip:

3) When describing a job, be specific. Paint a complete picture of the job opening. Make sure to include the job requirements, the level and type of experience you are seeking, the education and language proficiency preferences, as well a description of the daily responsibilities of the position. Job seekers like to have an idea of what their day at a job might be like and what the job entails.
