1. Job Basics
Define the core identity of the role – title, seniority, department, location, requisition type, and reporting line – so every JD has a clean, consistent backbone for search, approvals, and downstream systems.
2. Company Profile & EVP
Capture the mission, products, benefits, and culture/stack tags so every JD reuses a consistent, JD-ready story about who you are and why candidates should care.
3. Skills Taxonomy & Searchability
Define clear, atomic skills for the role — separating required vs nice-to-have and soft vs hard — so search, matching, and AI scoring can work with clean, consistent tags.
4. Compensation & Pay Transparency
Capture structured pay details — currency, ranges, bonuses, OTE, equity, and contract rates — and decide what’s visible externally so compensation stays consistent, compliant, and transparent.
5. Compliance & Security
Set the guardrails for the role — visa sponsorship, work authorization, data sensitivity, PII/PHI handling, and clearance needs — so every JD aligns with legal, regulatory, and security expectations from day one.
6. Posting, Tracking & Campaign Metadata
Configure where and how the role goes live — internal vs external flags, channels, and UTM conventions — so every JD is campaign-ready, trackable, and easy to report on across sourcing funnels.
7. Variants & A/B Testing
Control whether this JD runs as a single canonical version or with tested variants — titles, intros, and benefits — so you can experiment safely, compare performance, and roll winning patterns back into the master JD.
8. Channel Planning & Budget Alignment
Design where the JD should run and how hard it should be pushed — channel mix, geo targeting, pacing, and budget caps — so spend, reach, and role priority stay aligned across recruitment campaigns.
9. AI Resume Questions & Interview Support
Convert the JD into structured, AI-ready question sets — knockouts and nice-to-know prompts — for resume screening, recruiter pre-screens, and hiring manager interviews, so evaluation stays consistent and role-specific.
10. Candidate-Facing JD Generation & Quality
Turn the structured JD into clean, candidate-ready copy — titles, intros, outcomes, skills, and benefits in the right tone and length — so every posting is clear, inclusive, and consistently high quality across channels.
