# Learning Jenkins, 02-01: Your First Jenkins Job
In this lesson you create your first job.

Use the console to create a freestyle job with one build step.

# WINDOWS SYSTEMS
If you are running Jenkins on a Windows system:

1. Select the `Execute Windows batch command` build step
2. Enter the following for the command:
```
echo "Hello, Jenkins"
```

# Troubleshooting Errors
If you select the `Execute shell` build step, you will see an error similar to the following:
```
Building in workspace C:\Windows\system32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\Jenkins\.jenkins\workspace\hello-jenkins
[hello-jenkins] $ sh -xe C:\Windows\TEMP\jenkins4677419767712773799.sh

Build step 'Execute shell' marked build as failure

```

This is because the program Jenkins uses with the `Execute shell` build step is not available on your system.

To fix this error, use the `Execute Windows batch command` as described above.
