Description
For many candidates, Job descriptions are the first window into their future with your organization. They give candidates a glimpse into the role, experience, culture, and essence of who you are. From this one document, candidates make a choice – engage or move on.
So why are so many job descriptions some of the most boring, generic, valueless documents that organizations produce?
Without insightful, engaging, inclusive descriptions, the candidates who engage are either just as indifferent as the job description or they are those who already know how to engage, which provides no value for efforts to expand and/or diversify candidate pools.
In this session we will begin the journey toward creating strong job descriptions by starting at the source material. Learn how to engage with the hiring team to get valuable, detailed information you can use to create an inclusive, equitable, and engaging job narrative that attracts candidates. Â Â
