This guide is for HR and compensation professionals who are looking to transition from traditional job descriptions to a job catalog with skill and competency-based requirements.
This is the same process Mosh JD clients use to plan and deploy 50+ modern job descriptions by job family and/or business unit.
The job market is evolving rapidly, and so has the way we define roles within organizations.
Traditional job descriptions that focus on educational qualifications & degrees are becoming less relevant as roles evolve quickly. Skill mastery is often more impactful to organizations than the benefits of 2 and 4+ year university degrees.
If you want to update your jobs with a foundation of relevant skills and competencies, while minimizing or removing educational requirements to optimize recruiting, hiring, and employee retention efforts, this guide is for you.

The traditional path to a higher paying job was to go to school and learn work skills in the classroom.
Parents and institutions across the US have long emphasized that investing time and effort in the classroom leads to better job prospects and higher pay based on educational qualifications.
The internet has brought the rise of online learning platforms like Coursera, Khan Academy, and Udemy making it easier for individuals to gain skills and knowledge outside of traditional educational institutions.
Additionally, the internet has enabled digital portfolios and GitHub repositories for candidates to showcase their abilities and provide tangible evidence of their skills.
