Job Posting Templates for Service Businesses
Most trade job posts look identical — and get identical results. Below is a free AI prompt that drafts a posting built to stand out, plus a companion prompt for the interview questions that actually predict whether someone will show up and do the job. Copy either into ChatGPT, Claude, or any AI chatbot.
Job posting that stands out
Write a job posting for a [role] in [city]. Pay range $[X]-$[Y]. Benefits: [list]. Make the headline stand out from typical boring trade job posts and explain why someone would leave their current job for this one.
Interview questions for the role
I'm hiring a [role] for a [trade] business. Write 6 interview questions that go beyond the resume — focused on reliability, how they handle a frustrated customer, and whether they can work independently on a job site. Keep them conversational, not like a corporate interview script.
Two prompts, fifteen-plus in the toolkit
These two cover writing and screening. The full Hiring & Operations category in BizShortcut has 15+ prompts — SOPs, training docs, onboarding checklists, and more — plus prompts for Social Media, Email & Follow-ups, Review Responses, Website & SEO, and Customer Service.

Does this work for any role, not just technicians?
Yes — the prompt takes the role, city, pay range, and benefits as input, so it works for a lead installer, an office scheduler, an apprentice, or any other role you're hiring for.
Do I need to give an exact pay range?
It works best with one, even a rough range — a concrete number is part of what makes a posting stand out from the vague "pay DOE" listings most applicants scroll past.
