- Career Ad Checklist
Job title
The competition number, if your company uses them
A description of your company (TIP: Keep this section short!)
Who the job reports to
Main responsibilities
Results you want from the person in the job
Type of person you are looking for (TIP: It is better to focus
on the positive things you do want, instead the things you don’t
want!)
Experience, education, knowledge and abilities needed (TIP:
You may want to say exactly what level of education and experience
are needed and then say "An equivalent combination of relevant
experience and education may be considered.")
Physical demands of the job
Who to send the application to, along with address, fax, and
e-mail address (TIP: If you want to limit the number of rejection
letters that need to be prepared and sent, add the line "We
wish to thank all applicants for their interest. However, only
candidates selected for an interview will be contacted.")
Deadline for applications
Name and logo of the company (TIP: A quick way to develop an
ad is to use the Work description
for the job as a guide.)
