AI Prompt to Announce a New Job on LinkedIn
Write a LinkedIn post announcing a new role that reads as genuine, not corporate-templated.
The Prompt
Write a LinkedIn post (120-180 words) announcing that I'm starting a new role. Details: [NEW TITLE, COMPANY, WHAT EXCITES YOU ABOUT IT, AND ONE PERSON/GROUP TO THANK]. Tone: genuinely excited but not over-the-top corporate. Avoid clichés like 'humbled and grateful' or 'excited to announce'. End with an open, low-pressure line inviting connection, not a hard call-to-action.
Example
New title: Product Marketing Manager at a mid-size fintech startup. Excited about: first PMM hire, building the function from scratch. Thank: former manager who championed my move into marketing.
A post opening with a specific, non-clichéd line about what building a function from zero actually means day-to-day, a genuine thank-you to the named mentor, and a closing line like "If you're working on anything similar, I'd love to compare notes."
Tips for Better Results
- Give it one real, specific detail (a person's name, a funny story from the interview process) — that's what makes posts feel human instead of templated.
- Ask for two length options: a short version and a longer story-format version.
- Post it yourself in your own words after using this as a starting draft — don't copy-paste verbatim.
FAQ
Do LinkedIn job announcement posts actually help your career?
They can meaningfully expand your network and visibility, since LinkedIn's algorithm tends to boost career-update posts and they often prompt useful reconnections with past colleagues and clients.
Should I thank my recruiter or hiring manager by name?
It's a nice touch if the relationship is genuine, but always ask the person first if they're comfortable being named publicly.
