Job Posting Quality Standards

Write clear job descriptions.

• Include the company name, pay, work hours, benefits and duties.
• Use full sentences and professional language.
• Avoid spam-like content, like all caps, extra punctuation or too many abbreviations.
• Keep the tone clear and focused on the job.

Example:

• Do: 'We are hiring a full-term cashier at [company name]. Pay starts at [amount] per hour. Duties include helping customers, managing the register and keeping the checkout area clean'.
• Do not: 'HIRING CASHIER ₹₹₹ APPLY NOW!!! GREAT PAY!!!'

Use professional job titles.

• Keep titles simple, short and accurate.
• Use the real job-title only.
• Do not use clickbait, emojis, symbols or unclear text.
• Avoid adding details like location, pay or shifts. These belong in the job description.
• For job alert visibility only, you may include the following if it helps jobseekers understand the position:
  
  • City or state
  • Certifications or education
  • Short phrases, like ‘Urgent Hiring for software’ or ‘Looking for a …’

Example:

• Do: 'Warehouse Associate'
• Do not: 'Warehouse Associate - ₹20/hr Night Shift!!!'

Avoid keyword stuffing.

• Do not repeat the same keywords to boost search results.
• Do not list competitors' names.
• Do not include long lists of job titles or company names.
• Write short sentences that describe the job in a clear way.

Example:

• Do: 'We are looking for a customer service representative to assist clients by phone and email'.
• Do not: 'Customer service, customer service, sales, call centre, data entry, admin'

If we removed or hid your job post:

• Make sure all details about the job are correct.
