Writing an engaging job description is critical to attracting the best suitable people for your position. Your job descriptions are where you begin selling your organisation and your position to potential employees. 

A job description, when written effectively, should express the general corporate culture and how workers fit within that culture. Allow me to provide some advice!

Job Title

Make your job titles as descriptive as possible. Job names that are more specific than generic are more successful, therefore be specific by using essential terms that truly define the function. 

The Job Title is a concise description of the work (1-4 words) that reflects the job’s content, goal, and scope and is compatible with other job titles for similar jobs. 

Avoid using corporate jargon that can mislead the job seeker. Stick to regular levels of expertise like “Senior” rather than “VI” or other less common designations. Your job description wording should be as complete as possible.

Job Purpose

It is a  concise summary of “why does the job exist?” The Job Purpose provides a high-level overview of the role, level, and scope of responsibility consisting of three or four sentences providing a basic understanding, the “bird’s eye view” of the role. 

Responsibilities and Duties

List the position’s primary responsibilities. Make a clear and concise outline of your roles. Also emphasise any tasks that are exclusive to your organisation.

Address the position’s day-to-day tasks. This will assist applicants in comprehending the work environment and the activities to which they would be exposed on a regular basis.
