FEATURE: Use This Checklist to Write a Job Description

There are at least 5 reasons to write job descriptions for positions in your organization ... even if you're a solo writer!

2. By putting down a job description on paper, you're forced to think through who is going to do it and when they're going to do it.

5. Finally, you're protecting yourself and your organization.
