We need to produce sections: About the role (summary), Responsibilities (essential duties), Requirements (required education, experience, licenses), Qualifications (maybe additional education/experience to be considered, skills?), Skills (maybe skills and abilities), Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
Schedule: Not explicitly given; maybe part-time, term of position 12 month, at-will/just cause, temporary/continuing, part-time. Could infer schedule: Part-Time, 12 month ongoing. But we should only include Schedule if posting actually states it. It says: "Temporary/Continuing: Temporary Part-Time/Full-Time: Part-Time Union Group: N/A Term of Position: 12 Month At Will/Just Cause: Just Cause". So schedule info: Part-Time, 12 month term. That's specific enough. So we can include Schedule section with that info.
Pay: we have salary tiers.
Benefits: comprehensive benefit package.
Now we need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to use for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must not repeat job title as heading. So no heading for "Adjunct - Clinical (Part-Time)". Use sections.
We must not put Job ID etc as headings.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details.
Let's extract content.
About the role: summary of position: Provide in-person clinical teaching and patient care at the University Eye Center campus clinic (Big Rapids). The candidate(s) selected for the position must reside in Michigan after acceptance of employment. This is a pooled position. One or more applicants may be hired as needed to provide clinical education on a semester-by-semester basis. Also anticipated start date October 2026 (estimated, can be revised). It will remain ongoing as needed. Could also include position type Faculty - Temporary & Continuing, location, department. But maybe those go elsewhere.
Responsibilities: Essential Duties/Responsibilities list. Also marginal duties? Might be considered responsibilities. We'll include essential duties as list.
Requirements: Required Education, Required Work Experience, Required Licenses and Certifications. Possibly also physical demands? Might be considered requirements but not necessary. We'll include those three.
Qualifications: Additional Education/Experiences to be Considered: Previous experience supervising and training optometry interns. Also maybe required education/experience already covered; but we can put additional considerations here.
Skills: Skills and Abilities: excellent clinical, interpersonal, communication skills; demonstrated successful experience working directly with people from diverse backgrounds.
Benefits: Comprehensive benefit package (health care, vacation, etc.). Please see the following link for a list of benefits offered with this position.
Pay: Advertised Salary tiers with details.
Schedule: Temporary/Continuing: Temporary Part-Time/Full-Time: Part-Time Union Group: N/A Term of Position: 12 Month At Will/Just Cause: Just Cause. Also maybe mention that it's part-time, 12 month term.
We need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like EEO, application instructions, required documents etc? The instruction says: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we should remove Required Documents, Optional Documents, Special Instructions to Applicants, Initial Application Review Date, Open Until Position is Filled?, Posting Close Date, Advertised date, etc. Also remove EEO statement. Also remove "Required Documents", "Optional Documents", "Special Instructions to Applicants". Also remove "Initial Application Review Date", etc. Also remove "Advertised: 18 Sep 2026 Eastern Daylight Time Applications Close Back to search results Apply now Refer a friend Whatsapp Facebook LinkedIn Email App". So we keep only substantive job description content.
Thus we keep: Work type, Location, Department, Position Title (but not as heading), Advertised Salary, Benefits, Summary of Position, Compensation Tier details, Anticipated start date, Position Type, Required Education, Required Work Experience, Required Licenses and Certifications, Physical Demands (maybe not needed but could be part of requirements), Additional Education/Experiences to be Considered, Essential Duties/Responsibilities, Marginal Duties/Responsibilities (Skills and Abilities), maybe also "Term of Position" etc for schedule.
We need to decide what goes where.
Let's craft sections:
