How to Make and Modify Job Descriptions

Where to Start

Clear expectations are a key for helping others achieve high performance. Job descriptions are the place to define these expectations. You can make a TIP job description from scratch; from a job description in the library that comes with TIP; from another job description you’ve already created; or even from an employee evaluation (which has a job description in it).  To get started, start TIP and choose

Then go to File, New, and choose how you want to start:

By clicking on From Template you can design your own custom job descriptions. (To learn how, in detail, see the TIP User's Guide located in the Learn About Performance Management section of the TIP software.)

From Job Description Library allows you to select from a variety of completed job descriptions related to your field.

From Existing Job Description allows you to make a new job description from one you have previously created and saved.

From Existing Employee Evaluation allows you to use the job description from a completed employee evaluation. If you choose this, only the job description and the weights for the sections will appear in the new job description; the scores, names, and comments from the person's evaluation will remain confidential.

Now click on From Job Description Library (in TIP) to select and view a completed job description.
