Job description that attracts: AI prompt for recruiting

A ready-to-run prompt for copywriting work in recruiting. It assigns the AI a specific senior role, takes your details as variables, and defines the output format — so the first result is usable, not a warm-up.

What this prompt does

Act as an employer-brand copywriter. It structures the request the way experienced practitioners brief a colleague: context first, then explicit deliverables, then quality constraints.

Best for

Recruiting professionals — and anyone doing this work — who need copywriting handled to a professional standard for candidates and hiring managers. Typical moments: sourcing sprints, interview loops and offer stages.

Before you use it

Have these details ready to replace the highlighted variables:

• [paste JD or role details]
• [range]

The prompt

Act as an employer-brand copywriter. Rewrite this job description to attract strong candidates: [paste JD or role details]. Rules: open with the mission of the role (not the company boilerplate), 5-7 outcomes for the first year instead of a laundry list of duties, honest requirements (max 6, separate nice-to-haves), salary range [range], and a closing that tells candidates exactly what the process looks like.

Quality checklist before you run it

• Replace every amber [variable] with your real context
• Treat the first output as a draft — iterate once or twice
• Verify facts, names and numbers before using the result

Common mistakes

• Accepting adjectives (“innovative”, “seamless”) instead of concrete proof
• Keeping every AI suggestion instead of cutting 20%
• Writing for yourself instead of the customer's vocabulary

When to use it — and when not to rely on it

Use it whenever copywriting would otherwise start from a blank page. Don't rely on it as a finished product: outputs need your judgment, your facts, and — in regulated work — professional review.
