If you are a manager and you have an opening on your team, what do you  do? 

If you are like most of us your HR department is going to come to  you and ask that you create a job description so that they can go post it and see who applies for it. This is the way that we’ve always done things. However, it has not always worked out all that well. The wrong people apply for jobs or, even worse, too many people apply for an open position. Something has to change. 

Managers have to learn how to write job descriptions.
