AI workflow for writing job ads

Most job ads sound the same because they get rewritten from a template that was already generic. This workflow forces a clearer brief upfront so the final ad is honest and useful.

Step 1: Write the brief

Answer five questions in plain language. What does this role actually do day to day. What does success look like in six months. Who do they work with. What skills are non-negotiable. What is the salary range.

Step 2: Draft the ad

Paste the brief into an assistant. Ask for a job ad written for a real person, not a search engine. Specify the tone, length and a few examples of ads you liked.

Step 3: Cut the cliches

Remove phrases like rockstar, ninja, fast-paced and synergy. If a sentence could appear in any ad in any company, rewrite it or remove it.

Step 4: Add the practical details

Include salary, location, hours, hiring process and who they will report to. Candidates rate clarity over polish.

Step 5: Get a second read

Send the draft to one person inside the team and one outside. Edit based on what they ask. Post.
