Job descriptions or JD\u2019s for short, usually provide us a snapshot of what the role may encompass on a day to day, the minimum qualifications set forth by the employer and the essential functions of the role. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I remember when I took on my current job about a year ago, a recruiter reached out to me and forwarded me the job description for review. I looked at it and the qualifications were right in line with my education and experience. The JD painted a picture for me of what the job entailed, which areas of HR I would have oversight of, what my main responsibilities were, who the position reported to, as well as physical essential functions of the job. I remember reading the job description and thinking it was a good fit for me and decided to move forward and interview for the company.\u00a0 The job description is below for review. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I recall being an applicant in the past for other positions and the JD deterred me from applying when my experience was not a match or if the position\u2019s goals, areas of focus and day to day responsibilities are not in line with those that I enjoy. Therefore, job descriptions can attract candidates that fit the bill, but it can also cause candidates to select themselves out of the process if they don\u2019t think their qualifications match and the job itself does not appeal to their interests.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
