Absolutely.
Again, Monster.com is interesting, because, as you know, they're one of the biggest job boards in the world. They told us the five things job seekers desperately want to hear are, and I'm going to read this:
Fewer words in job descriptions—be more concise. Summarize the application requirements—I have no idea what half these jobs are looking for.
Make it easier to apply online.
Put it in layman's terms.
Eliminate useless jargon.
And the last point this fellow made was:
It would be nice to know a timeframe for a response to my application.
Again, I think it's true of other organizations as well. But face it, I think the federal public service has a major challenge in that context.
