How To Create Compelling IT Job Advertisement

Most HR personnel believe that writing a job advertisement is just like updating their Facebook or LinkedIn. However, it is more than that. There is no denying that if you have thousands of followers, maybe you will be able to get views and engagement on your post. But, that would certainly not mean that your Job ad post was compelling.

This blog highlights a 5-step guide to creating compelling advertisement for IT jobs in Tulsa in the following –

1.      Choose a Catchy Job Title –

Most job seekers while search for a job on the internet, enter desired job title as keyword. Make sure you have the job title present in the title of your advertisement.

2.      Explain the Roles and Responsibilities for the required Job Title –

This explanation will enable the candidates to evaluate themselves and check their suitability for the open position. Ideally, you should use bullet points to explain what a candidate will need to do while working on this profile, in addition to, how much experience and what qualification they need for this. Try to give as short and precise information about your requirement.

3.      Include some interesting facts about the work environment that your workplace offers.

It will help attract more candidates, but the focus should be on what you are looking for in a candidate.

4.      Specify what are the Must-haves and Desirable in a Candidate.

 To save your and applicant’s time, you should mention what are the must-have and desirable requirements for a candidate. If you are offering information technology (IT) job in Tulsa, then you should mention of what kind of an IT job it is – for example, software development, web development, etc. Computer jobs in Tulsa are also considered a kind of IT job, but technically, the job of a computer operator does not have any connection with the IT industry.

5.      Never Sell Opportunities. 

It would be better not to promote your organization while searching for a candidate for your organization. You would get innumerable applications and tire yourself this way. Instead, you should convey how challenging it would be for a candidate aspiring to join your organization.
