While talking to a potential applicant for the 18F Consulting Software Engineer role, I received feedback on the "Role Summary" section of the job posting. The feedback seemed thoughtful and actionable:

  • "More of a conversational tone would be good."
  • "More specifics — what is a typical day like?"
  • "One line about perks, one line about expectations... make it easy to read."

For inspiration about how to achieve a more conversational tone and make the job posting more readable, scannable, and attractive to candidates, we could look at the Careers page for Glitch, which I think does a good job in these areas: https://glitch.com/about/careers

Addressing this user feedback could involve working with the Writing Lab. Or it could involve gathering a group of interested engineers around a Google Doc to see what improvements we could make without expert outside help.
