Assistant Director, Residence Life

. We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". For Pay we have actual numbers, so include Pay section. Benefits we have list, include Benefits section. Schedule? Not explicitly given besides "full-time (100% FTE), permanent position. This position is overtime eligible. Must be willing and able to keep regular hours and work some evenings and weekends." That's schedule info: full-time, overtime eligible, some evenings/weekends. Could be Schedule section. But we need to check if we should include Schedule only if posting actually states them. It does state full-time, overtime eligible, some evenings and weekends. So we can include Schedule. But we must avoid thin sections. Perhaps combine Schedule into About the role? But instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We have many sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. That's 7 sections; maybe okay if each substantive. Could combine Requirements and Qualifications? Actually Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications could be under Requirements and Qualifications respectively. That's fine. We need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. We must remove boilerplate: application instructions, EEO, legal, etc. Also remove "Position Sponsorship Eligibility: Not eligible for work visa sponsorship" maybe not needed but could be included under About the role? It's minor metadata; we can drop it. Also remove "Available Title(s) 1157-YN_ADMINPRO - Assistant Director Business Title Assistant Director, Residence Life Employee Type Admin. Professional Position Details". That's metadata; drop. We need to preserve all substantive information: The Opportunity paragraph, responsibilities list (maybe we can extract bullet points), Required Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule (full-time, overtime eligible, some evenings/weekends), maybe location (Pullman, WA) and department info? Could be part of About the role? Might include location as part of About the role? Not required but could be included. We must not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep specifics: e.g., "supervise and evaluate Residential Education Directors", "collaborate with live-in staff to ensure effective coordination of desk operations across up to 12 residence halls", "coordinate the planning and delivery of staff training initiatives", "oversee and advise an average of three departmental committees annually", "provide support and response to student emergencies, including participation in an on-call rotation", "serve as a liaison with designated university partners", "address daily administrative responsibilities and student and staff concerns", "assume additional departmental responsibilities as assigned". Also "full-time (100% FTE), permanent position", "overtime eligible", "Monthly Salary: $5,598.97 to $6,255.82", "Benefits: paid sick and vacation leave; paid holidays; medical, dental, life and disability insurance package for employees and dependents; retirement; deferred compensation, optional supplemental retirement accounts; training and development; employee tuition waiver." Also "Required Qualifications: Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field and four (4) years of progressively responsible relevant experience, which has included at least one (1) year of managerial experience. A Master’s degree in a related field may be substituted for up to one (1) year of the required experience. Education and experience can be tailored to fit the specific organizational entity/directorial assignment. Positions may require applicable licensure and/or certification. Supervisory experience of graduate hall directors, paraprofessional staff or other personnel. Demonstrated commitment to the philosophy and practice of participatory management and community standards. Demonstrated competence with Microsoft Windows and MS-Office computer software. Must be willing and able to keep regular hours and work some evenings and weekends." Preferred Qualifications list many items; we need to keep them as list. We also have location: Pullman, WA. Could be included in About the role or maybe a separate section? Not in prescribed headings; maybe we can include in About the role as prose. We must not include application instructions, EEO, etc. Now produce HTML fragment. Structure:
