Placeholder for Drop Down Selector

Hi! How do I put a placeholder for the drop down selector? For example, a placeholder that says "Select Job Role" instead of selecting the first option by default "Full Stack Javascript Developer".

Hi Matthew try this:

<form>
    <select >
        <option value="" disabled selected hidden>Select Job Role</option>
        <option value="">Web Developer</option>
        <option value="">Java Developer</option>
        <option value="">Full Stack Developer</option>
        <option value="">Ruby Developer</option>
    </select>
</form>
