correspond with an actual person.
On-line job posting is reserved for official,
legitimate employers representing formal businesses
and organizations.

TIPS
An effective job announcement presents the relevant
information in a brief, clear, organized, and
understandable
manner. Additionally, it is uses language that is
promotional so as to attract good candidates. The
typical job
announcement usually contains the following
components:
Name of Company: To avoid posting a “blind” ad, it
is necessary that the name of the company be clearly
disclosed. The company’s name may be accompanied by
such details as a DBA (Doing Business As) or an
AKA (Also Known As) notation, location or address
(City and State), and website address.
Job Title: The title
of the position should be clearly stated. For better
response, the job title should be
descriptive rather than generic. An additional
notation might indicate whether the position is
fulltime, part time, temporary, or an internship.
Job Description: The
duties and responsibilities of the position should
be summarized. An organized overview
of the job functions should be itemized and concise
but not detailed. The description should state
typical tasks
and expectations and generally describe what the
candidate will be doing on the job.
Qualifications: The
job qualifications and technical requirements of the
position should be itemized in a
concise manner, including such factors or
prerequisites as education, experience, skills,
proficiency, and
personal traits.
Education: Degree,
academic major, coursework, training, grade point
average.
Experience: Type of
previous work, type of previous work setting,
previous activities, length of service.
Work-related skills:
Business, managerial, administrative, financial,
sales, organizational, interpersonal.
Technical
proficiencies: Computer skills, language skills,
engineering skills.
Personal traits:
Self-motivated, responsible, mature, outgoing, quick
learner, team player, ambitious.
Key words: It might be
necessary to state qualifications in terms of the
sought skill level or extent of
experience by using descriptive verbiage (required,
mandatory, desired, a plus, familiarity with,
proficiency
with, extensive, thorough, strong, excellent).
Optional Notes: It may
be necessary to include a note regarding citizenship
requirements. To enhance the
attractiveness of the announcement, an ad may
include a brief description of the company and
references to the
training schedule, advancement potential, salary,
and benefits.
Contact Information:
All ads should include the name of the person to
contact for more information. Contact
data may include mailing address, telephone number,
and/or e-mail address.
Inclusive language:
Job announcements should not include any
discriminatory language. It is inappropriate,
unethical, and in many cases illegal, to solicit
candidates based on features such as race, gender,
sex, nationality, ethnicity, age, orientation,
identity, religion, or political affiliation.
