The prompt

Write a job description for {{job_title}}.

About our company: {{2_3_sentences}}
Team size and stage: {{e_g_15_person_startup_series_a}}
What this person will do day-to-day: {{describe_the_role}}
Must-have experience: {{list}}
Nice-to-have: {{list_2}}
Salary range: {{if_sharing}}
Remote / hybrid / in-office: {{specify}}

Please write:
1. A 2-sentence role summary for the job board header
2. An 'About the role' section (150 words)
3. Responsibilities (6–8 bullet points)
4. Requirements (must-haves and nice-to-haves separated)
5. An 'About us' closing paragraph (75 words)

Why this works

Separating must-have from nice-to-have requirements is the most important structural decision in a job description — including everything as a requirement deters qualified candidates who don't meet every point on a list that was partly aspirational. The 2-sentence role summary for job boards forces a hook that describes the role's impact rather than just the tasks, which improves application quality. Writing the description for the person you want rather than the person you're replacing produces better-fit applicants.

Risks & review

Job descriptions with requirements that aren't actually necessary for the role (requiring a degree for a role where experience matters more, requiring X years for an entry-level role) can create disparate impact exposure under anti-discrimination law. Review each listed requirement against the actual job functions and remove any that aren't genuinely necessary. Also check that the job description doesn't inadvertently exclude protected class members through requirements that serve as proxies for protected characteristics.
