Sure the job sounds great on paper, you are sure you will get a ton of applicants. That’s great right? Not exactly, forgetting to include info about personality requirements that might be necessary for the job could mean a lot more time spent sifting through applications or through interviews with people who are nowhere near what you are looking for.”

2. Too much of a good thing 

This ad did get one big thing right which is “Don’t overindulge, sure you could include every single little thing about the job but most likely it will just distract your audience. Too much information can actually be a bad thing especially when it comes to salary. You want to make sure you leave room for the candidate to come up with questions.”
