Six steps to hire an audio and music
- Set the pay range first. Few postings for this work state pay, so look at what similar roles near you advertise and at what your own team earns. 31% of the postings state pay; in several US states and EU countries the law requires it.
- Write the description. Start from the audio and music job description template, then check it with the job description checker: the pay, the place of work and the must-haves should be clear before the second paragraph.
- Decide where the person can work. 26% of today’s audio and music postings are remote and 3% hybrid. If yours is remote, name the countries or time zones; “remote” alone brings applications you cannot accept.
- Post it where people look. Post the job free on this site, add it to your own careers page and send it to people you know who do this work.
- Screen for the skills that matter. Today’s postings name SQL most often: check them in the work, not only in the resume. Score every candidate on the same points with the interview scorecard; the audio and music interview questions show what good candidates prepare for.
- Decide quickly. Half of today’s open audio and music postings have been up more than 67 days: a candidate who waits for your answer may be talking to other employers meanwhile. Tell every candidate when you will decide, and keep to it.
