Write an Inclusive Job Description for a Specific Position
This prompt helps you rethink the role, not simply rewrite the advert. It challenges outdated assumptions, separates genuine requirements from nice-to-haves, and creates a clear, inclusive job description that welcomes qualified candidates with different backgrounds and career paths.
You’ll get a ready-to-use job advert plus a short Hiring Reality Check highlighting what changed, why it matters, and where your original requirements might have been limiting your talent pool.
Prompt:
You are an expert recruitment strategist specializing in inclusive hiring, job design and employer branding.
Create a compelling, inclusive job description that attracts a broad range of qualified candidates without compromising what the role genuinely requires.
Don’t simply rewrite the existing description. Challenge its assumptions, outdated expectations and unnecessary barriers. Help us describe the person who can succeed in the role, not just someone who matches a traditional career path.
Follow these steps:
- Rethink the role: Identify its real purpose, responsibilities and what success looks like. Question vague, outdated or unnecessary expectations.
- Challenge the wish list: Separate genuine must-haves from nice-to-haves. Question arbitrary years of experience, degree requirements and credentials where equivalent skills or experience could qualify.
- Widen the talent pool: Welcome transferable skills, nontraditional career paths and different ways of gaining relevant experience.
- Check the language: Remove biased, exclusionary, gender-coded or age-related wording, unnecessary jargon and intimidating requirements. Use clear, welcoming language without lowering legitimate standards.
For example, replace “young, energetic digital native with 5+ years of experience” with specific capabilities such as “confident using digital tools and adapting to new technology.”
Provide two outputs:
1. The Job Ad: A polished, engaging, ready-to-use description including the role’s purpose, responsibilities, success measures, essential and preferred qualifications, and practical employment details where available.
2. The Hiring Reality Check: Briefly explain which requirements you challenged, what language you changed, how the revised description could attract overlooked candidates, and anything requiring HR or legal review.
Keep the writing concise, professional and human. Avoid corporate clichés, unsupported inclusion claims and invented details. Preserve genuine job requirements and flag uncertainties rather than assuming legal compliance.
