Write a warehouse brief
A useful request tells a candidate what the assignment really involves.
Start with the essentials
Location, hours, duration and duties belong at the start of a staffing brief. Include the reporting point and describe the work in ordinary language. A job title alone cannot explain the difference between two warehouse assignments.
Be specific about tasks
Receiving, picking, packing and shipping each involve different checks and handovers. Explain equipment exposure and any authorization required. Distinguish what must be known before arrival from what the site will teach.
Keep it current
When the work changes, update the brief and discuss the change. Candidates and supervisors should not be working from different versions of the assignment. Consistent information helps prevent avoidable first-day confusion.
