Description

What if the reason you canโ€™t attract great people has nothing to do with pay or hours, and everything to do with how you tell your story?In this episode of The YES! Show, Christine sits down with hospitality educator Julia Krebs to unpack a powerful classroom experiment that turned into an industry wake-up call. When students were asked to review real hotel job descriptions, the feedback was blunt, honest, and impossible to ignore.๐Ÿ’ก Four Key Learnings-Most job descriptions focus on what the company needs, not what the candidate gains-Young talent is actively looking for mentorship, growth, and meaning, not just tasks-The tone and energy of a job ad directly influence who applies (or doesnโ€™t)-Culture fit matters more than clever titles when clarity is missingโœ… Three Action Items You Can Take Today-Rewrite one job description using โ€œyouโ€ more than โ€œweโ€-Add a clear line about mentorship, growth, or learning opportunities-Review your hiring language and ask, โ€œWould I apply for this today?โ€
