Free employer tool
Job description checker
Will candidates trust your posting - or skip it? Paste your draft before you publish and get an instant candidate-trust score, plus the concrete fixes that move it.
Remember: candidates run the mirror of this tool on your post - that is who you are writing for.
Analyzed on the fly in your browser - your draft is never stored.
What a credible security posting looks like
The checker scores your draft against these six marks. Hit all six and qualified candidates have no reason to hesitate.
A published salary band
Even a wide range beats none. Disclosure is the single strongest trust signal candidates scan for, and it pre-filters for people your budget can actually close.
A specific role, open now
Name the opening, the team it sits on, and why it exists. No "talent community" or "always hiring" framing - that is the strongest skip signal in the language.
The real stack, named
Your SIEM, cloud platforms, key frameworks, languages. Three or more concrete technologies tells a qualified candidate this job is defined, not aspirational.
At most five must-haves
A stacked years-of-experience wishlist makes strong candidates self-reject. Five true requirements, everything else a nice-to-have.
Day-to-day responsibilities
A "what you will do" section that describes actual work. Requirements-only postings read as form posts.
A team and reporting line
One sentence - "you will join a team of 6, reporting to the Head of Detection" - separates a real opening from a resume harvest.
This tool evaluates posting language only - it is a guide to candidate perception, never a verdict on any employer.
Frequently asked questions
- What does the job description checker look at?
- It scores your draft against the language patterns candidates (and the ghost-job detection tools they use) read as low-intent signals: evergreen "always hiring" phrasing, a missing salary range, buzzwords in place of concrete duties, stacked years-of-experience wishlists, and third-party framing - plus the positive signals of a credible post: a disclosed pay band, named tools and stack, clear responsibilities, and a team or reporting line. It evaluates the posting text only, never your company.
- Why does salary disclosure matter so much?
- A published band is the single strongest trust signal candidates scan for. A missing range reads as a reason to skip, while a disclosed band pre-filters for applicants your budget can actually close - and disclosure is itself one of the signals this checker scores.
- Is my draft job description stored anywhere?
- No. The check runs on the fly in your browser - your draft is analyzed in the moment and never uploaded, stored, or shared. Paste with confidence, including pre-publication reqs.
- What should I do once my posting scores green?
- Publish it where candidates are already browsing. A listing on AI Hiring Board is a flat $299 for 30 days, direct-apply with no recruiter middleman, in front of candidates actively applying to roles at 250+ AI companies.
