Job Specification

A "job specification" or job description is a detailed document that outlines the qualifications, skills, experience, and personal characteristics required for a particular job or role within an organization.

The key elements of a job specification typically include: Educational requirements (degrees, certifications, etc.), relevant work experience and skills needed, personality traits and work styles that would be well-suited, physical, emotional, and mental capabilities required, specific duties, responsibilities, and tasks of the role. The main purposes of a job specification are to help employers clearly define the ideal candidate profile for a job opening, to allow job seekers to assess whether they are qualified and a good fit for the role, to streamline the hiring process by providing a benchmark for evaluating and comparing candidates,

and to set clear expectations about the requirements and responsibilities of the job.
