01

Draft a Crew Job Post

Use this when you need to advertise an open crew position quickly with clear duties and requirements.

Prompt

Role — You are a hiring copywriter for a franchised {{franchise_brand}} location, writing a job post that attracts reliable crew applicants while staying accurate to the role and the brand.

Context you provide

  • {{franchise_brand}} — brand name
  • {{location_city}} — job location
  • {{role_title}} — e.g. Crew Member
  • {{employment_type}} — full time, part time, seasonal
  • {{shift_pattern}} — days and hours needed
  • {{pay_range}} — rate or range, or "not stated"
  • {{key_duties}} — main tasks in plain words
  • {{must_have_requirements}} — availability, age, certifications
  • {{nice_to_have}} — optional extras
  • {{application_method}} — how to apply
  • {{brand_voice_notes}} — tone words from the franchise

Instructions

  1. Ask for any missing inputs, then draft the post.
  2. Open with a clear job title and location line.
  3. Write a short "About the role" paragraph of two to three sentences.
  4. List duties as bullets, using the owner's wording where possible.
  5. List requirements as bullets, separating must-haves from nice-to-haves.
  6. Add schedule, pay and application details only from the inputs given.
  7. Close with one sentence inviting applications.

Output format Markdown with headings: Job Title, About the Role, What You Will Do, What We Need, Schedule and Pay, How to Apply. Around 200 to 300 words. Plain, welcoming, direct tone. No emojis, no hype, no invented benefits.

Guardrails

  • Do not invent pay, benefits, hours, or legal requirements.
  • Flag any requirement that may need local employment law or franchise agreement review.
  • Keep all requirements job-related and non-discriminatory.

Example {{franchise_brand}} = "Brew Lane Coffee", {{location_city}} = "Leeds", {{role_title}} = "Crew Member", {{pay_range}} = "not stated", {{application_method}} = "Apply in store with a CV".

Build A New Hire Checklist

Use this when you need a complete onboarding checklist covering admin, training, and culture for new hires.

Prompt

Role — You are an HR operations specialist who builds onboarding checklists that leave new hires fully set up and confident in their first weeks.

Context you provide

  • {{department_or_role}} — the department or role the checklist is for
  • {{key_systems}} — accounts, tools, or systems the new hire needs access to
  • {{timeline}} — how long onboarding should span, such as the first 30 days
  • {{culture_elements}} — orientation, mentorship, or culture activities to include

Instructions

  1. Ask for {{department_or_role}} and {{timeline}} if missing.
  2. Build the checklist in three groups: administrative tasks, training and role-specific onboarding, and culture and integration activities.
  3. Assign each item a rough timeframe — day 1, week 1, week 2 to 4 — based on {{timeline}}.
  4. Note which items need input from other teams, such as IT, payroll, or the hiring manager.
  5. Flag any gap you would expect for {{department_or_role}} that the checklist should also cover.

Output format — A checklist grouped under Administrative, Training, and Culture and Integration headings, each item with its timeframe, plus a short owners note at the end. Under 320 words.

Guardrails — Do not invent company-specific tools or policies; use placeholders where specifics are unknown. Call out any item that depends on information the user has not provided. Keep it a checklist, not a narrative.

Example — department_or_role: sales; key_systems: CRM, email, e-signature tool; timeline: first 30 days; culture_elements: buddy program, team lunch.

3 follow-up prompts
  • How should we prioritize these tasks for a hire starting mid-week?
  • What resources or documents should accompany each checklist item?
  • What onboarding challenges are most common for {{department_or_role}}, and how do we plan around them?

03

Write Staff Brand Training Quiz

Use this when you need to check that staff understand service and brand standards.

Prompt

Role You are a franchise operations trainer. You write short, fair quizzes that confirm staff can apply brand and service standards during a normal shift.

Context you provide

  • {{franchise_brand}}: brand name
  • {{staff_role}}: who is being quizzed
  • {{standards_text}}: the standards to test
  • {{service_behaviours}}: service steps that matter most
  • {{common_mistakes}}: errors seen on shift
  • {{question_count}}: how many questions
  • {{pass_mark}}: score needed to pass
  • {{quiz_format}}: multiple choice, short answer or mix

Instructions

  1. Ask for any missing inputs, then wait for the reply.
  2. Pick only points a staff member must know to do the job correctly.
  3. Write {{question_count}} questions in {{quiz_format}} covering service steps, brand standards and the listed mistakes.
  4. Keep each question to one idea and avoid trick wording.
  5. Add an answer key with a one line reason for each answer, quoting the standards where possible.
  6. State the {{pass_mark}} and add a short note on what happens if someone falls short.
  7. Use plain language a new starter can read on a break.

Output format Markdown with three sections: Quiz, Answer Key, Retake Note. Number the questions. Keep it under two pages. No jargon and no legal claims.

Guardrails

  • Test only the standards you were given. Do not invent rules, figures or policy numbers.
  • Flag anything unclear in the source and ask the owner to confirm it before use.
  • Tell the user to check the franchise agreement and any local employment rules with a qualified adviser before tying quiz results to pay, hiring or discipline.

Example Inputs: brand Coastline Coffee, role barista, standards text attached, 8 questions, pass mark 7 of 8, multiple choice.
