Get the right
employee for the job!
Question: How can I make sure that I get the right candidates to apply for my openings? Answer: Write an effective job description. Give your job opening the right title. Job titles like "worker needed" or "come work for us" don't tell potential employees what they want to know in an instant. In today's day and age of ever increasing speed and job search sites, job seekers don't want to waste their time. A clear and concise job title helps to give job seekers a preview of what you are looking for. Job seekers are more likely to read through your job description if you give a clear job title. If you are looking for a secretary then your title should be something like "Executive Secretary." Specify a salary range. Don't leave the salary to the prospective employee's imagination. Job seekers want to know what they will be paid. Salaries "not specified" or "negotiable" don't look enticing to the job seeker. You help to narrow the field for the right candidate when you specify a salary. Make your company look enticing. If you want to find that perfect employee make sure that you are asking for what you want in that employee. Entice him or her to come to work for your company. Give a brief introduction about some of the benefits of working for XYZ corp. Health benefits, vacation policy, and bonus packages are some of the things that might catch the eye of the right employee. Describe the job duties. List some of the top duties that your new employee will be performing. If a job seeker doesn't see what is required of him or her in a new job, then they are likely to continue looking. It is better to be up front about what is required of an employee than leaving it up to their interpretation. Employees that know their duties up front don't expect more and are more likely to stay in their position longer. List the qualifications necessary. Don't get the job duties confused with the qualifications necessary to perform the job. A person can try and perform the duties of the job but may not necessarily have the qualifications. Qualifications are requirements such as years of experience, degrees, certificates in a particular field, licensing, etc. If you spell out the qualifications you should receive applications from people that have these qualifications. Additional information. List any additional information that can help narrow down the field. List things such as job location, travel requirements, commission, re-location, or any other information that would be useful for the job seeker. You also might want to specify how applications and resumes should be received. |
