Before

HR Rockstar / People Ninja. We are a fast-paced, dynamic company looking for a self-starter.

After

HR Generalist. You'll be the go-to HR person for a team that's growing fast.

You open a role and post it. A week later you have a pile of resumes and almost none of them fit. Most of the time, the post is the problem. A job post is not a job description. It's an ad, and it has one job: get the right person to apply, and help the wrong person pass.

Here's the checklist we use. Run your live post through it, then download the full guide for annotated rewrites, a pay range method, an apply flow audit, a template and a 15-minute scorecard.

The 10-point job post checklist

Clear title.
Why a clever title hides your job from the people searching for it.
Pay range shown.
Why leaving pay off quietly shrinks your pool before anyone clicks.
The first 3 lines sell the role.
Most readers decide here. Most posts waste these lines.
Must-haves under 5.
The list that scares off your best applicants without you noticing.
Outcomes over duties.
The simple shift that makes strong people picture themselves in the job.
Inclusive, plain language.
Small wording habits that turn good people away.
Short apply flow.
Where most applicants quit, and the step most companies never test.
Response-time promise.
One sentence that makes your post stand out from the pile.
Growth path.
What ambitious people look for before they apply.
Company why.
The line that tells people why they'd want to work for you.

The full guide explains each point, with rewrites, a scorecard and a template.
