What's the purpose? Do finely tuned job descriptions attract more candidates? I'm guessing the point isn't to actually describe the job if the copy can be automatically generated.

Very good point. Not the whole job description will be generated by AI. There are certain parts that cannot be generated like:

- Salary.

- Location.

- Role description. For example what is the expectation of the candidate? what is the team size? ...etc.

- Company Bio

- Company perks (gym membership, private health insurance ... etc) as these will differ from one company to another.

The purpose of the service is to:

- Generate professionally looking job description where the AI will write a list of required and general skills.

- Speed, compare that to following a template which will always give the same content.

I do not have numbers to answer if a finely tuned JD will attract more candidates but personally I prefer a JD that is readable and clear.
