{role_name} job description

How to craft a job brief that attracts top talent?

  • The job title should be clear and precise to attract the right candidates.
    • To attract a smaller, specialized candidate pool, use precise titles like:
      • Sales Strategy Analyst
      • Sales Operations Executive
      • Sales Development Analyst
    • To attract a larger candidate pool, use broader titles like:
      • Sales Representative
      • Sales Executive
      • Tele-Sales Executive
    • Use specialized titles when seeking candidates with specific skills, experience, or industry knowledge, reducing the volume but increasing quality. Use broader titles when you aim for a larger applicant pool, providing greater flexibility in choosing talent.
  • The job summary should provide a high-level overview of the role, the company, and the impact the role will have on the organization. It should be enticing enough to grab the attention of top talent.
  • A detailed list of responsibilities and requirements helps candidates understand what is expected of them. Include both technical skills (hard skills) and non-technical skills (soft skills).
  • Top talent seeks more than just a job; they want growth and a supportive culture. Highlighting your company’s culture and benefits can make your job description stand out.
  • Encourage candidates to apply by including a call to action at the end of the job description. Make it easy for them to understand how to apply and what the next steps are.
