Employers & finding workers

How do I describe the role or work type I need?

Short answer

Describe the work itself — the tasks, the skills required and the context — rather than only a job title. Clear tasks and required skills produce far more accurate matches than a label alone.

A job title means different things to different people, so leading with it alone weakens matching. Describe what the work actually involves: the main tasks, the skills genuinely needed, and the context — for example the setting, tools, or pace. That gives the platform concrete signals to match against.

On LabourMarket.ai a clearer description of the work matches you with people whose real skills fit, with an honest explanation of why. Distinguish must-have skills from nice-to-have, so you do not filter out capable people over a non-essential requirement.

Practical steps

  • Describe the main tasks the work involves.
  • List the skills genuinely required, separating must-have from nice-to-have.
  • Add context like setting, tools or pace where it matters.
