Before you start

What you’ll need

  • Completed hiring manager intake session
  • Access to internal compensation bands and workforce plan
  • Hiring Manager Intake Notes
  • Workforce Plan Context
  • Compensation Benchmark Data
  • Legacy Role Description

Who’s involved

  • RecruiterExtracts requirements and synthesizes the draft criteria, brief, and job description.
  • Hiring ManagerProvides initial intake, verifies technical requirements, and approves the final outputs.

Safe use

  • Data HandlingThis workflow processes internal headcount plans and compensation benchmarks. Do not paste these inputs into public or unapproved GenAI tools.
  • VerificationGenAI may hallucinate requirements or omit crucial nuances. Carefully verify that the AI-extracted Must-Have Criteria match the raw intake notes exactly before finalizing.

Reference

Guardrails

  • Verifiable Criteria OnlyIf a requirement cannot be objectively measured on a resume or in an interview, do not include it as a Must-Have.
  • Distinct Audience FramingMaintain a strict boundary between internal context (Role Brief) and external messaging (Job Description).

Pitfalls

  • Pasting raw compensation benchmark documents directly into the prompt without abstracting sensitive ranges.
  • Allowing the AI to blend nice-to-have skills into the Must-Have Criteria.
  • Publishing the AI-generated Job Description without verifying it against the legacy requirements.

Definition of Done

  • The Must-Have Criteria contains only verifiable skills and explicitly excludes nice-to-haves.
  • The Role Requirements Brief accurately captures the team context and business objectives.
  • The Approved Job Description aligns completely with the Must-Have Criteria without hallucinated responsibilities.
