Problem Statement

It can be challenging to create engaging and skill-based job postings that attract the desired applicant pool in alignment with job descriptions

Description

Use supported AI tools to help draft and refine job postings that are clear, engaging, and tightly aligned to the approved job description. By referencing the role’s required qualifications and core responsibilities, AI can translate job-description language into a candidate-facing posting that highlights what matters most—key skills, impact, growth opportunities, and day-to-day expectations—without introducing requirements that aren’t actually part of the role.

This approach improves consistency and quality across postings by:

  • Maintaining alignment with the required skills and minimum qualifications in the job description
  • Using inclusive, plain-language wording that broadens candidate appeal and reduces unnecessary jargon
  • Strengthening structure and readability (e.g., compelling summary, scannable responsibilities, clear qualifications)
  • Tailoring tone to the intended audience while staying professional and U‑M–appropriate

HR and hiring teams remain responsible for final review to ensure accuracy, compliance, and alignment with unit needs and hiring practices. The result is a more compelling job posting that attracts the right applicants and supports a fair, transparent recruitment process.
