We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About Us? The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). The posting includes "About Us" which is not exactly "About the role". But we can treat "About Us" as a section heading? The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but we should follow the pattern. Probably we should include sections that have content: About Us (or About the role), Pay Rate, Benefits, Job Summary And Purpose (maybe as a description), Duties And Responsibilities, Essential Ability Acknowledgement (maybe part of responsibilities), Qualifications (Requirements, Education, Experience, Preferred Qualifications). Also Mandated Reporter maybe part of responsibilities? But we can include as a separate note? The instruction says include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. So we need to decide which sections to include. We have: - About Us: description of organization. Could be a section heading "About Us" (though not in list). Might be okay. - Pay Rate: $17.78 - $18.72 Per Hour. That's specific, so we should include a Pay section. - Benefits: "VOALA offers competitive medical, dental, vision and retirement benefits." That's specific enough to include Benefits section. - Job Summary And Purpose: description. - Duties And Responsibilities: list. - Essential Ability Acknowledgement: includes ability to work with difficult clients etc. Could be part of Qualifications or Responsibilities. Might be better as a separate section? Not in list. Could be omitted or folded into Qualifications. - Mandated Reporter: statement about reporting abuse. Could be part of Responsibilities or a separate note. Might be omitted. - Qualifications: includes Requirements (fingerprint clearance, background check, ability to perform under stress), Education (current college freshman or higher with mastery of target subject, minimum 3.0 GPA), Experience (1 year tutoring), Preferred Qualifications (professional or personal experience overcoming barriers). So we can have a Qualifications section with subpoints. We should not repeat job title. No Job ID. We must remove boilerplate: EEO, E-Verify, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. We need to use

for section headings. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include all the content from About Us, Pay Rate, Benefits, Job Summary And Purpose, Duties And Responsibilities, Essential Ability Acknowledgement (maybe as part of Responsibilities), Qualifications (including Requirements, Education, Experience, Preferred Qualifications). Also Mandated Reporter maybe as a responsibility? Could include as a bullet under Responsibilities. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not applicable. We need to decide sections: About Us, Pay, Benefits, Job Summary, Responsibilities, Qualifications. Possibly also "Essential Abilities" but could be part of Qualifications. Let's extract content. About Us paragraph: "Volunteers of America is a non-profit human services organization committed to serving people in need, strengthening families, and building communities. VOALA provides a variety of social services to Los Angeles area communities such as Head Start programs, Upward Bound college prep programs, veterans’ services, homeless shelters, low-income housing program as well as drug and alcohol rehabilitation. Learn more at www.voala.org." Pay Rate: "$17.78 - $18.72 Per Hour" Benefits: "VOALA offers competitive medical, dental, vision and retirement benefits." Job Summary And Purpose: "The Academic Tutor supervises academic tutoring sessions to help program participants develop the skills required to master academic course material in specific subjects such as Math, English, Science, etc. as stated by the Lead Tutor. Provide individual and small group tutoring to students after-school through homework help and/or class material review. The Academic Tutor will also help develop and implement enrichment activities to enhance the participant's academic and social development. Other assistance might include; creating engagement activities and leading math and/or college preparatory workshops." Duties And Responsibilities list (many items). Let's extract unique items, avoid duplication. List from first Duties And Responsibilities: - Lead academic tutoring sessions to help participants develop the skills required to master academic material - Coordinates daily homework assistance and tutoring program for students - Develop lesson plans and tutor in accordance with California Content Standards - Assist in the creation of learning activities and other department objectives - Complete tutorial log daily and complete monthly reports - Monitor the use of tutoring resources (laptops, calculators, books, etc.) during tutoring session - Set up materials and prepare the classroom for the day's activities. - Keep written logs of students' and observations and progress - Communicate with Lead Tutor, Project Advisor, and Director concerning the participants - Mentor students about the college experience - Present and lead workshops on topics around college/careers/financial literacy/leadership development as needed - Monitor and supervise students during field trips when needed - Other duties as required and is subject to change at any time Then "Essential Ability Acknowledgement" includes: - Ability to work and deal with difficult, uncooperative, and potentially aggressive clients as VOALA serves the neediest of the needy in our programs, which may include clients with homelessness, mental illness, substance abuse, recently released from incarceration, and other challenges. Then "ESSENTIAL DUTIES:" repeats many of the duties (some duplicates). It says: - Services for this position must be provided on-site. As a result, the position requires incumbents to report to work on-site each day of active employment - Coordinates daily homework assistance and tutoring program for students - Develop lesson plans and tutor in accordance with California Content Standards - Assist in the creation of learning activities and other department objectives - Complete tutorial log daily and complete monthly reports - Keep written logs of students' and observations and progress - Prepares the classroom for the day's activities and programs by setting up materials - Other duties as required and is subject to change at any time. So we need to combine duties, removing duplicates, and include on-site requirement and ability to work with difficult clients. Thus responsibilities list should include: - Lead academic tutoring sessions to help participants develop the skills required to master academic material - Coordinate daily homework assistance and tutoring program for students - Develop lesson plans and tutor in accordance with California Content Standards - Assist in the creation of learning activities and other department objectives - Complete tutorial log daily and complete monthly reports - Monitor the use of tutoring resources (laptops, calculators, books, etc.) during tutoring sessions - Set up materials and prepare the classroom for the day's activities - Keep written logs of students' observations and progress - Communicate with Lead Tutor, Project Advisor, and Director concerning participants - Mentor students about the college experience - Present and lead workshops on topics around college/careers/financial literacy/leadership development as needed - Monitor and supervise students during field trips when needed - Report to work on-site each day of active employment (position requires on-site service) - Ability to work and deal with difficult, uncooperative, and potentially aggressive clients (including clients experiencing homelessness, mental illness, substance abuse, recently released from incarceration, etc.) - Other duties as required and subject to change Also Mandated Reporter: "As service providers to the underprivileged and vulnerable in our community, all employees are considered Mandated Reporters, and must report any instance of physical or sexual abuse to proper authorities." Could be added as a responsibility. Now Qualifications: Requirements: - Must be able to pass a fingerprint clearance, background check, including criminal history, personal references, employment and education verifications - Ability to perform under circumstances of possible emotional stress and conflicts dealing with difficult, uncooperative, and potentially aggressive clients as VOALA serves the neediest of the needy in our programs which may include clients with homelessness, mental-illness, substance abuse, recently released from incarceration and other challenges.

We'll have sections:

    Qualifications

    maybe we can have subheadings? But instruction only says use

    for section headings. Could we use

    for Qualifications and then inside have

    or

      for subcategories? Probably fine. We could also split Qualifications into Requirements, Education, Experience, Preferred Qualifications as

      ? Not allowed? Only

      for section headings. But we could still use

      for each sub-section? That would be many sections. Might be okay but risk of thin sections. Better to keep Qualifications as one section with

      paragraphs for each category, and maybe

        for lists. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include each bullet. Let's craft. Responsibilities list items (as
      • ): - Lead academic tutoring sessions to help participants develop the skills required to master academic material - Coordinate daily homework assistance and tutoring program for students - Develop lesson plans and tutor in accordance with California Content Standards - Assist in the creation of learning activities and other department objectives - Complete tutorial log daily and complete monthly reports - Monitor the use of tutoring resources (laptops, calculators, books, etc.) during tutoring sessions - Set up materials and prepare the classroom for the day's activities - Keep written logs of students' observations and progress - Communicate with Lead Tutor, Project Advisor, and Director concerning participants - Mentor students about the college experience - Present and lead workshops on topics around college/careers/financial literacy/leadership development as needed - Monitor and supervise students during field trips when needed - Report to work on-site each day of active employment (position requires on-site service) - Ability to work and deal with difficult, uncooperative, and potentially aggressive clients (including clients experiencing homelessness, mental illness, substance abuse, recently released from incarceration, etc.) - Other duties as required and subject to change - As a Mandated Reporter, report any instance of physical or sexual abuse to proper authorities Check duplication: "Ability to work..." appears also in Qualifications; but we keep it in Responsibilities as it's an essential ability. Might be okay. Now Qualifications section: we can have paragraphs:

        Requirements:

        • Must be able to pass a fingerprint clearance, background check, including criminal history, personal references, employment and education verifications
        • Ability to perform under circumstances of possible emotional stress and conflicts dealing with difficult, uncooperative, and potentially aggressive clients as VOALA serves the neediest of the needy in our programs which may include clients with homelessness, mental-illness, substance abuse, recently released from incarceration and other challenges.
