Realistic Job Previews: Create Effective Job Descriptions
In a recent study, employees said the top reason they quit was because the actual job did not match what they expected it would be. Inaccurate and poorly written job descriptions cost you qualified candidates, and lead to a poor employee match. This means a higher turnover rate for your organization!
Realistic job previews (RJP) help you hire the right talent by setting honest expectations from the beginning. You get better employee-job alignment, reduce early turnover of new employees, and improve overall employee engagement.
During this practical webinar, we’ll walk you step-by-step on how to integrate RJPs into your recruiting and hiring processes.
By the end of this program, you’ll be able to:
- Create realistic job previews (RJP) that attract the candidates you want while setting clear expectations in that lead to long-term employee retention
- Communicate the perceived less desirable aspects of a job without scaring away great fits – but influences the wrong candidate to self-select out
- Align your RJPs with the company's mission, vision, and values to increase employee engagement and reduce unwanted turnover
- Plus, 29 real-life RJP examples – with explanation and best use cases
