1 Quick way to optimize job posts.

Written By Alex Reynolds

Vague job titles will kill your hiring budget and bottleneck your hiring efforts.

Candidates typically won't know the nuances in of the job details if you aren't specific about what your needs are as a company.

For example.

Job Title: "Account Manager"
There is no clarity about industry, experience, or location.

Job Title: "Software Developer"
There is no clarity about the tech stack, remote/on-site, full-stack, back-end or front-end.

Without clarity around your job titles, you run the risk of attracting very general candidates.

A solution to this, add some quick details about the position in the title.

"Senior .NET Developer - Washington DC, On-site"
"Digital Marketing Account Manager (Health & Beauty), Chicago, Hybrid"
"Vice President of Engineering, New York, Manhattan, Hybrid"
"Director of Marketing, (Farming & Agriculture), Remote"

Candidates are applying to multiple jobs at once and often don't have time to deeply investigate some of the critical nuances of each open position.

Try to present the information in a way that clearly relays relevant messaging to the candidate. The better your clarity, the more relevant candidates you will attract.

It also places responsibility on the candidate to be able to articulate their interest and experiences around a specified industry nuance or technical requirement once it is time to interview.
