How to write an effective job advertisement

11 03 2011

Writing a job ad is not an easy task. In class, we saw some examples of job ads.

so you have to create a job ad including (with as many details as possible) information on your company.

Here are some tips on how to write a job ad.

The most important parts of the ad:

  • job title
  • employer or recruitment agency/consultancy
  • job base location
  • succinct description of business/organization/division activity and market position and aims
  • to whom the position reports – or other indication of where the role is in the structure
  • outline of job role and purpose – expressed in the ‘second-person’ (you, your, etc)
  • indication of scale, size, responsibility, timescale, and territory of role
  • outline of ideal candidate profile – expressed in ‘second-person’
  • indicate qualifications and experience required (which could be incorporated within candidate profile)
  • salary or salary guide
  • whether the role is full-time or permanent or a short-term contract (if not implicitly clear from elsewhere in the advert)
  • other package details or guide (pension, car etc)
  • explanation of recruitment process
  • response and application instructions
  • contact details as necessary, for example, address, phone, fax, email, etc.
  • job and or advert reference (advert references help you analyse results from different adverts for the same job)
  • website address
  • corporate branding
  • quality accreditations, for example in the UK, Investor in People
  • equal opportunities statement

Les diplômes aux USA et Canada

6 11 2010

Bonjour,

traduire un diplôme français en anglais peut être très délicat selon à qui l’on s’adresse. Un tableau explicatif et récapitulatif.

La situation est encore différente au Canada par exemple par rapport aux USA. (un document en anglais très bien fait sur le système universitaire français avec un comparatif avec le Canada)

http://www.ambafrance-ca.org/IMG/pdf/Systeme_universitaire_Anglais.pdf

Pour les USA:

Il n’existe aucun système d’équivalence de diplômes officialisé par un accord gouvernemental entre la France et les Etats- Unis. Les universités sont donc libres d’évaluer les titres français par rapport aux diplômes américains. Cependant, la reconnaissance se fait généralement comme cela.
