Does YC cover how to write job descriptions?

Not in an organized way. IIRC I sent an email a few months ago about what not to do, after we'd had a stream of bad ones.

I also explained to the startup that posted the job ad in question that they'd effectively created an adverse selection filter, and they've since deleted it.
