In this episode of the Entrepreneur to Employer podcast, we explore one of the most overlooked but essential steps in the hiring process: crafting a great job description. A well-crafted job description is more than just a list of duties—it sets the stage for attracting the right talent, aligning expectations, and ensuring hiring success.

We’ll walk you through a comprehensive checklist to help you create job descriptions that stand out, rank high on search engines, and meet compliance standards. Learn how to:

  • Gather input from key stakeholders to define role expectations.
  • Write compelling boilerplate text that communicates your company’s mission and culture.
  • Identify the key behavioral traits and skills you need in a candidate.
  • Use tools like O-Net, Textio, and Moz to optimize job descriptions for search engines and improve performance.
  • Ensure ADA compliance to protect your company from legal risks.

Whether hiring your first employee or your fiftieth, this episode will give you actionable tips to enhance your talent acquisition strategy.

Tune in to learn how a great job description is the foundation for great hiring—and how to start creating one today.
