That's about the role. So we can have About the role
with paragraphs.
Then "Primary Responsibilities" list: bullet points. We'll put Responsibilities
with - each.
Then "Position Requirements": list of requirements. Could be
Requirements
with .
Then "Benefits And Perks": list of benefits. Could be Benefits
with .
Then pay: "$107,541 - $227,956 a year" plus location ranges. That's pay info. So Pay
with paragraphs.
Schedule: Not explicitly given. There's "Flexible and Hybrid Work Schedule" under benefits. That's schedule info. Could be part of Benefits or separate Schedule. The instruction: Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we could have a Schedule section if there is specific schedule content. The posting mentions "Flexible and Hybrid Work Schedule" as a benefit. Could treat that as Schedule section. But also Benefits includes many items. Might be better to have Benefits section and Schedule section separate? The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine schedule into Benefits? But they gave Schedule as possible heading. Since we have explicit "Flexible and Hybrid Work Schedule" we could make a Schedule section with that bullet. However Benefits also includes many items; we could keep Benefits separate and Schedule separate but that would be thin. Better to include Schedule as part of Benefits? But they said include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. So if we make Schedule section, we need to put the schedule content there. That's fine: we have "Flexible and Hybrid Work Schedule". That's specific. So we can have Schedule section with that line.
But then Benefits section would still have many other benefits. That's okay.
We also have Qualifications? Not separate; Requirements covers qualifications. Skills? Could be part of Requirements or separate. The posting includes "Computer skills necessary..." and "Proficient knowledge of..." etc. Those could be Skills section. But we already have Requirements covering degree, experience, licensure, certifications, computer skills. Could split: Requirements for degree/experience/licensure, Skills for technical skills. But instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine into Requirements. However they listed Skills as possible heading. But we can decide to not create Skills if we think it's thin. However we have specific computer skills list; that's substantive. Could make Skills section.
But we also have "Qualifications" maybe same as Requirements. We'll not duplicate.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
Check each for content.
About the role: we have paragraphs.
Responsibilities: list.
Requirements: Bachelors degree, 12 years experience, RA licensure, obtain multi-state licensure, NCARB Certification preferred, CSI – CCS and or CDT certification preferred. That's requirements.
Skills: Computer skills necessary to enter daily timesheet data and use Microsoft Outlook for email correspondence. Proficient knowledge of Microsoft Office Suite, Bluebeam Revu, Autodesk Construction Cloud, and Newforma Konekt. Advanced knowledge of Revit, and/or AutoCAD. Ability to travel.
Benefits: list: Flexible and Hybrid Work Schedule (but we moved to Schedule), Paid Time Off – Credited to You 100% Upfront, 401K with a Company Match, Rewards and Recognition Program, Training and Development to Foster Professional Growth, Paid Holidays, Medical / Dental / Vision Coverage, Welcome Box, Casual Dress Code, Reimbursement for Professional Licenses, Paid Time Off for Community Team Service Events, Voluntary or Supplemental Short-Term / Long-Term Disability, Employee Assistance Program, Company Paid Bonding and Recovery, Employee Events such as Lunches and Outings to Foster a Positive Work Environment.
Schedule: Flexible and Hybrid Work Schedule.
Pay: "$107,541 - $227,956 a year" plus location ranges.
We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. Not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: EEO, E-Verify, drug-free workplace, background checks, AI tools, etc. Also remove duplicated lines, navigation, cookie, legal, application instructions. The posting includes "CESO Compensation Transparency" paragraph about pay determination; we can keep that as part of Pay section? It's substantive about pay determination. Should we include? It's about pay, yes. So include in Pay section.
Also there is mission statement etc. Already in About the role.
We need to preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we must keep all details from the posting except boilerplate.
Let's extract exact text.
