We’ve talked again and again about the importance of writing a good job post when looking for part-time help and interns. Your job description is your chance to get candidates excited about your opportunity while communicating the needs at your company. But sometimes it can feel that it is easier said then done. So are you a employer who is looking to write up a job post and need some help writing a stellar description? If so, fill in the blanks below and you’ll be on your way. Oh, and the information below is from a sample job – but feel free to borrow it!
