The Plain-English Job Post

What you'll need

• The role and what they'd actually do
• What matters most in a hire
• Any AI chat assistant

The steps

1. Jot down the role, the day-to-day, and what you really need.
2. Paste the prompt and fill in the brackets.
3. Read it as a candidate would — does it sound like a place you'd want to work?
4. Post it.

Write a clear, friendly job post that attracts the right people — plain English, no corporate jargon.

Role: [job title]
My business: [what you do]
What they'd actually do day to day: [main tasks]
Must-haves: [the few things that really matter]
Nice-to-haves: [optional]
Pay / hours / location: [details]

Under 300 words. Warm and honest: what the role is, who'd be great at it, what it's like to work with me, and how to apply. Avoid jargon and a giant wish-list that scares off good people.

Now give me a short, punchy version I can post on social media or in a local group.

What you'll get

A clear, appealing job post that draws better-fit applicants — plus a short version for social.

If it's not quite right

• Getting unqualified applicants? Add "Add one simple instruction in the post to filter for people who actually read it."
• Too corporate? Add "Write it like I'm telling a friend about the role."
