How to write a job post candidates trust
A job post structure that attracts better-fit applicants: salary, process, responsibilities, and requirements, with a template.
Use a clear, searchable title
Use the title candidates search for, such as "Senior Backend Engineer (Java)", not internal names like "SDE-3 Platform". Add the level and the key skill.
Lead with the essentials
- Salary range and how it splits between fixed and variable pay.
- Work style and location: office, hybrid (how many days), or remote.
- Interview process: rounds, format, and expected timeline.
Describe the work, not the wish list
List four to six responsibilities that describe a real week in the role. Separate must-have skills from nice-to-haves; long wish lists discourage strong candidates who meet most but not all of them.
Template
[Title], [Team], [City or Remote]

What you will do: 4–6 bullets
