Best Practices

Language Guidelines

• Use "you" instead of "the ideal candidate"
• Avoid gendered language (he/she → they)
• Remove unnecessary jargon
• Be specific about requirements vs. nice-to-haves
• Include salary range when possible (improves applications by 30%)

Red Flags to Avoid

• "Rockstar" / "Ninja" / "Guru" → Use "Expert" or "Specialist"
• "Fast-paced environment" → Be specific about workload
• Excessive requirements → Limit to 5-7 must-haves
• Vague responsibilities → Use measurable outcomes

Inclusive Language
