Review Help Wanted Ads

  • Review help wanted advertising online and in newspaper
  • Review experience needed and general salary range paid for each role
  • Review job description for each role

To help you think more about the roles you will need to fill eventually (including the work you will be doing until you hire someone to fill the roles for you), you can review the help wanted ads. Whether you review online or in your local newspaper, you can get an idea of what is needed relative to each area of expertise. You can add to the informal job descriptions you are writing and give them more detail.

You may also learn about the general salary ranges paid for various functions as well as the typical experience required to fill each role. Add details you learn to your informal job descriptions to further define each.

A good national online job resource is Monster.com and Hotjobs.com. You will be able to quickly identify required and desired experience for any position as well as the job description.

At first it may take a little time to get used to looking at the help wanted ads from the perspective of an employer, especially if you always looked as a potential employee in the past.
