Free Job Descriptions
Writing a good job description is hard. That's true even when the job has been clearly defined let alone when there's some ambiguity. My experience has been that there are a lot of gaping holes in what HR or even a hiring manager provide for job descriptions when looking for a new hire.Some suggest that, as an interviewee, you should use the interview to get clarification, but often you're more worried about just answering the interview questions. A job should be clearly defined before a posting for it is sent to recruiters and to HR. Otherwise, they'll just waste their time screening people that aren't good fits.
To that end, I'm posting a collection of IT job descriptions that I've encountered over the years. Although in bullet form, I believe these descriptions work fairly well as a checklist for typical situations. They're several years old, but they still describe the qualities of a good hire. Each job role is described at three levels: junior, intermediate, and senior.
