Write a job description that an actual qualified candidate would want to read.
The role:
- Title: {{job title}}
- Team: {{what team, what they do}}
- Why this role exists: {{the real reason — what problem are they solving, what's the business need?}}
- What success looks like in 6 months: {{concrete outcomes}}
About us:
- Stage: {{startup / scale-up / enterprise}}
- Honest tradeoffs: {{what's good about working here AND what's hard — pay/equity/pace/oncall/etc.}}
Output:
- **What you'll actually do** (4-6 bullets, real work, not "you will leverage cross-functional partnerships")
- **What we're looking for** (must-haves only — separate "would be nice" if it exists)
- **What this role is NOT** (clear non-goals so no one self-selects in if they're wrong fit)
- **Honest tradeoffs of working here** (one paragraph — what's hard, who'd hate this job)
- **Compensation range** ({{insert range — non-negotiable, this gets resumes, not "competitive"}})
- **How to apply** (no 5-step intake form — what's the minimum we need?)
Skip: "rockstar," "ninja," "fast-paced environment," "wear many hats." Skip "we work hard and play hard." Just describe the job.hiringJDrecruiting
