Pay: maybe separate section for salary range? But we already have salary in benefits. The instruction: include Pay section only if posting actually states them. It does state salary range. Could create Pay section with that info, and Benefits section for other benefits. However they said prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine Pay and Benefits into one Benefits section? But they said use headings for Benefits, Pay, Schedule. If we combine, we might lose granularity but still okay. However they said "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe we have Benefits (including salary, bonus, etc.) and Schedule (onsite flexible schedule). But schedule is also a benefit. Could have Benefits and Schedule separate? The schedule is a specific item; we could put under Benefits. But they said include Schedule section only if posting actually states them. It does state "Onsite flexible schedule". So we could have Schedule section with that item. Benefits section with other items (salary, bonus, training, 401k, PTO, culture). Pay section maybe redundant if we have salary in Benefits. But they said include Pay section only if posting actually states them. It does state salary range. Could have Pay section with salary range and bonus potential? Bonus is also pay-related. Could put both in Pay. Then Benefits for other items. Let's decide: We'll have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Pay, Benefits, Schedule.
Pay: "$120-130,000 annual salary" and "5% quarterly bonus potential". Could combine.
Benefits: "Paid training & educational assistance to grow your career", "401(k) with company match", "PTO and ESST paid time off", "A collaborative, team-driven culture where your contributions matter".
Schedule: "Onsite flexible schedule".
Check for duplication: Ensure we didn't miss any substantive info: Also mention "New Site Opening Summer 2027" included in About. Also mention "CPP is preparing to open a new manufacturing site in Mendota Heights, Minnesota". Good.
