Write a clear job description

This prompt writes a job description for a role at your company. You give the location and type, must-have and nice-to-have skills and the salary range, and it returns a clear structure. Keep the must-have list short.

Write a job description for a [JOB TITLE] at [COMPANY, ONE LINE ABOUT IT].

Location and type: [LOCATION / REMOTE / FULL-TIME]
Must-have skills: [LIST]
Nice-to-have: [LIST]
Salary range: [RANGE OR "competitive"]

Structure: a 3-line intro, what you will do (6 bullets), what we are looking for, what we offer. Avoid jargon and gendered words. Do not ask for more years of experience than the role really needs.

Keep must-haves to 5 or fewer. Long lists put off strong candidates.

What you will get

A job post with a three-line intro to the company, six bullets on the work, a short must-have and nice-to-have list, the salary range and what you offer, in plain and neutral wording.

Why it works

Most job posts are a wish list, so the prompt sets a fixed shape (intro, six bullets, must-have, offer) that keeps the post short enough to read on a phone. The bans on jargon, gendered words and padded experience are there because each one quietly narrows who applies. Listing the salary range lets the AI write the offer section around real numbers instead of “competitive pay”.

Common mistake

The must-have list keeps growing.

Fix: Hold it to five, as the tip says. Move anything a strong person could learn in the first three months into nice-to-have.

Also watch for

The bullets describe the company, not the job. Give it two or three real tasks from last month, such as “rebuilt the billing report”. Bullets built on real work read as honest.
Years of experience are padded. The prompt already tells it not to inflate them. Check the number it writes against what the last person in the role actually had.

Try a variation: internship post

Turn it into an internship post: drop years of experience, add what the intern will learn and who will mentor them, and state the stipend and the length.

Still not right? Reply with this

Rewrite the “What you will do” bullets so each starts with a verb and names something the person would finish in their first 90 days.
