Tips for Writing Great Job AdsBefore you start writing, take a moment to think about what makes your workplace unique.
What value do you give to your employees? Do you offer a strong professional environment with opportunities for growth and learning? Maybe you encourage your chefs to experiment and help shape the menu? Or perhaps you offer one of the best salary and pension packages in the industry?
Make your workplace attractive! 
Use a Picture That Tells Your StoryChoose an image that reflects your company’s culture and shows candidates what it’s like to work with you.
Did you know we’re biologically more drawn to faces? Let your amazing team shine — show real people and real moments from your workplace.
Choose Requirements CarefullyA fantastic candidate might skip your ad if the requirements feel too strict. Focus on what’s essential and what can be learned on the job.
Ask yourself — is cultural fit more important than experience? Be realistic, and keep your ad inviting.
Show What It’s Like to Work With YouEveryone says they offer “a great work environment and exciting tasks.” Be specific — what makes yours great?
Do you collaborate closely as a team? Are there creative projects or special events that a new hire would join right away?
Let your passion for your workplace show.
Speak Directly to the ApplicantUse twice as many “you” as “we” or “I.”
For example:
“You will take part in creating new seasonal dishes.”
“You will learn more about wine pairings.”
“You will contribute to improving the guest experience.”
This helps applicants imagine themselves as part of your team from the very first read.
