Which roles have pre-built templates?

Software Engineer, Product Manager, Marketing Manager, Designer, and Data Analyst. Each has tailored responsibilities, requirements, and nice-to-haves based on industry standards. Pick 'Custom' for any other role and write from scratch.

Should I include salary in the JD?

Increasingly yes — many jurisdictions (CA, CO, NY, WA) now require it by law. Even where optional, including salary ranges saves time on both sides and signals transparency. Use a range like '$120,000 – $160,000'.

How long should a job description be?

300-700 words. Long enough to cover responsibilities, requirements, and perks; short enough that candidates actually read it. Avoid laundry-list requirements — 5-7 essentials beat 15 'nice-to-haves'.

Are these templates biased?

The templates are written to be inclusive, but always review for unintended bias. Avoid gendered language (e.g. 'rockstar', 'ninja', 'aggressive'). Use 'they' instead of 'he/she'. Tools like Textio can help audit your final JD.

Can I use these for internal job postings?

Absolutely. The structure works for internal mobility, contractor postings, and external hires. Adjust the perks/benefits section based on the role type — contractors don't get full benefits.
