Three ways to create a job
daily.dev Recruiter makes job creation fast with AI-powered parsing. Choose your preferred method:
Option 1: Import from URL (recommended)
If your job is already posted somewhere (your careers page, a job board, LinkedIn), simply:
- Click Add New Job from your dashboard
- Paste the URL of your job posting
- Our AI extracts all relevant details
- Review and edit as needed
This is the fastest way to get started. Most jobs are ready to review in under 30 seconds.
Option 2: Upload a file
If you have a job description document:
- Click Add New Job
- Upload your PDF or document file
- AI parses the content and extracts details
- Review and edit the extracted information
Supported formats: PDF, DOC, DOCX, TXT
Option 3: Start from scratch
If you prefer to write everything manually:
- Click Add New Job
- Select "Create manually"
- Fill in each field step by step
- Preview before submitting
What gets extracted
Our AI automatically identifies and extracts:
- Job title and level: Senior Backend Engineer, Staff Designer, etc.
- Tech stack: Languages, frameworks, tools mentioned
- Location: Office location, remote policy, timezone requirements
- Compensation: Salary range if mentioned
- Requirements: Experience level, must-have skills
- Description: Role responsibilities and context
Review your job
After AI parsing, you will see a side-by-side editor:
- Left side: Edit form with all extracted fields
- Right side: Live preview of how developers will see it
Review each section and make any corrections. The AI is usually accurate, but always verify:
- Is the title correct?
- Are the technologies accurate?
- Is the compensation range right?
- Is the location/remote policy clear?
Required fields
Before you can submit, you must complete:
- Job title
- Tech stack / skills
- Location or remote policy
- Compensation range
- Job description
A completeness bar at the top shows your progress.
Add screening questions
After editing job details, add up to 3 screening questions:
- Use AI to generate questions based on your job
- Or write your own custom questions
- Focus on must-haves that are not obvious from the description
See Add screening questions for best practices.
