After the job description is completed, prepare a job specification. This is a modified version of the job description that omits the details about the job.

It helps whoever writes the copy for the advertisement, job posting, flyer, radio spot or other job marketing tool.

The job specification includes:

  • Job title.
  • To whom the position reports.
  • Job summary.
  • Educational requirements.
  • Desired experience.
  • Required specialized skills or knowledge.
  • Physical or other special requirements associated with the job.
  • Any occupational hazards.
  • Salary range.
  • Benefits.
