Attorney-in-Charge, Community Justice Connect
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections have real content.
We have:
- About the role: could be description of opportunity and organization? The "THE ORGANIZATION" and "THE OPPORTUNITY" could be combined as "About the role" or maybe "About the organization". But headings list includes "About the role". We'll use that for overview.
- Responsibilities: we have a long list under "Responsibilities include but are not limited to:" with subcategories. We'll output as - items.
- Qualifications: we have "Qualifications:" section with bullet-like sentences. We'll output as
.
- Skills: maybe not explicit separate; but we have leadership, managerial skills etc. Could be part of qualifications. We'll not create Skills unless distinct.
- Benefits: we have benefits paragraph. We'll create Benefits section.
- Pay: we have compensation range. We'll create Pay section.
- Schedule: we have "Position Type: Full-time, evening and weekend hours required." That's schedule info. We'll create Schedule section.
- Requirements: maybe same as Qualifications? The list includes "Requirements" heading but we have Qualifications. We could treat Qualifications as Requirements. But we should not duplicate. We'll include Qualifications as Requirements? The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can include both Requirements and Qualifications if content distinct. But we have qualifications list; we could treat that as Qualifications. Requirements maybe not separate. We'll include Qualifications.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, visa sponsorship, etc. Remove those.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details from responsibilities, qualifications, compensation, benefits, schedule, location, etc.
We need to include location: "Position Location: Required travel across Bronx, Brooklyn, and Queens offices." That's substantive; maybe include under About the role or a separate section? Not in headings list but we could include as part of About the role paragraph. Since we cannot create new headings not in list unless we think it's needed? The instruction: "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., implying those are examples but we could use others? Safer to stick to those. Location info can be placed in About the role paragraph.
Position Type: Full-time, evening and weekend hours required. That's schedule.
We must not include duplicated lines.

Responsibilities
- ... each bullet
We need to break responsibilities into items. The original responsibilities list includes several categories with sub-bullets. We'll flatten each distinct duty as - . Must preserve all detail.
