Write a performance-based job description. Use when the user says "write a JD", "draft a job posting", "create a job description", "help me post this role", "write requirements for this position", or wants to define what success looks like in a role - even if they don't explicitly say "job description". Also use when a hiring manager says "I need someone who can do X, Y, Z" and needs that translated into a structured posting.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
## Overview Based on **Hire With Your Head** by Lou Adler. Traditional JDs list requirements (skills, years of experience, degrees) but don't tell candidates what they'll actually do. Performance-based JDs flip the model: define what "great" looks like in 90 days and 1 year, then work backward to what's required. This filters for candidates who can deliver outcomes, not just match keywords. ## Workflow ### Step 1: Define the Performance Objective Before writing a single word of the posting, answer: "What does this person need to accomplish in the first 90 days to be considered successful?" Ask [hiring manager]: - "If you hired someone today and they exceeded your expectations at 90 days, what would they have done?" - "What's the one outcome that, if missing, would make this hire a failure?" - "What does the person in this role own, end-to-end?" Convert answers into 3-5 measurable performance objectives. Format: ``` - Within 90 days: [specific deliverable or outcome] - Within 6 months: [milestone or capability reached] - Within 12 months: [strategic outcome or ownership expanded] ``` ### Step 2: Write the Opening Hook …

How to install
mdr add qa-aman/claude-skills/job-description@sha256:329ce5b73aaa45ebThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260303.4a121b1, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
