Behavior Technician
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate.
We need to parse the posting.
Content:
Position Overview: description about role, opportunity, etc. That's "About the role" maybe.
Key Responsibilities: bullet list.
Qualifications: list of requirements (high school diploma, driver's license, etc.) plus additional desired attributes (communication, problem solving, etc.) Might be considered "Qualifications" or "Requirements". The instruction: Use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections to include.
We have:
- About the role: Position Overview paragraph.
- Responsibilities: Key Responsibilities paragraph plus bullet list? Actually the posting says "Key Responsibilities As a Behavior Technician, you will directly support children..." then a sentence. Then "Individuals with coursework..." maybe part of qualifications? Actually that sentence is about encouraged to apply. Might be part of Qualifications.
- Requirements: The list under "Qualifications To be considered for the Behavior Technician position, applicants must meet the following requirements:" then bullet list: High school diploma or equivalent, Valid driver's license, Reliable transportation, Active auto insurance with the applicant listed as a covered driver, Current negative TB test. Then after that: "We are looking for individuals who demonstrate strong communication, problem-solving, creativity, reliability, and professionalism. The ability to work collaboratively with BCBAs and other members of the clinical team is essential." That could be Skills.
- Additional Benefits: "In addition to competitive hourly compensation, Ad Astra offers flexible scheduling, ongoing training, and a supportive work environment designed to encourage professional development and growth within the field of ABA." Then later "Additional Benefits Include Paid Time Off (PTO), sick leave, mileage reimbursement, and compensation for drive time Free 40-hour Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) training and ongoing development opportunities Structured, performance-based pay increases, including raises tied to consistent availability and RBT certification Incentive Pay Structure $1/hour raise after maintaining consistent availability for 90 consecutive days Additional $1/hour raise upon successfully earning RBT certification Cancellation Policy ..." Also "Our Commitment" etc.
- Pay: "Compensation ranges from $20–$27 per hour, depending on experience and qualifications. Additional compensation may be available for bilingual Spanish-speaking applicants."
- Schedule: "Most sessions are scheduled Monday through Friday between 3:00 PM and 8:00 PM, with scheduling flexibility based on client needs and your availability."
- Also "Physical And Cognitive Requirements" is a long list; could be considered Requirements or maybe Skills? But we have a Requirements heading already; we could include physical requirements under Requirements or maybe a separate section? The instruction says only include sections when posting has real specific content. We have physical requirements content; we could put under Requirements or maybe a separate "Requirements" includes both qualifications and physical. But we already have a Qualifications heading for the list of mandatory items. We could treat "Requirements" as the mandatory items (high school diploma etc.) and "Qualifications" as desired attributes (communication, problem solving, etc.) However the posting lumps them together. But we can split.
We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience" etc. We have specific pay range, schedule, benefits.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, etc. Remove that.
We must not include application instructions.
We must not include duplicated lines.
We need to preserve all substantive information.
Thus we need to output HTML with sections:
About the role
Position Overview Join Ad Astra Behavior Analytic Services as a Behavior Technician and gain valuable hands-on experience in the field of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). This position offers an opportunity to begin or further develop your career while making a meaningful difference in the lives of children and their families. In this role, you will provide direct, individualized support by implementing ABA treatment programs designed to build new skills and promote positive behavioral outcomes. Services are provided in clients' homes and community-based settings based on their individualized treatment needs. Most sessions are scheduled Monday through Friday between 3:00 PM and 8:00 PM, with scheduling flexibility based on client needs and your availability.
But schedule is also separate; maybe we should not duplicate schedule in About the role. The instruction: do not repeat info? It says preserve ALL substantive information; we can include schedule in both About the role and Schedule section? Might be duplication but okay if it's present in both places? Might be considered duplication but not prohibited. However better to keep schedule only in Schedule section and not repeat in About the role. But About the role currently includes schedule sentence; we could move that to Schedule section and keep About the role without schedule. Let's see. About the role: Could be the first paragraph up to "Services are provided in clients' homes and community-based settings based on their individualized treatment needs." Then schedule separate. Thus: About the role: "Position Overview Join Ad Astra Behavior Analytic Services as a Behavior Technician and gain valuable hands-on experience in the field of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). This position offers an opportunity to begin or further develop your career while making a meaningful difference in the lives of children and their families. In this role, you will provide direct, individualized support by implementing ABA treatment programs designed to build new skills and promote positive behavioral outcomes. Services are provided in clients' homes and community-based settings based on their individualized treatment needs." Responsibilities: The key responsibilities paragraph plus bullet list? The bullet list is not explicitly given; the responsibilities are described in a paragraph: "As a Behavior Technician, you will directly support children as they develop essential communication, social, adaptive, and everyday living skills. You will implement evidence-based ABA strategies to promote skill development, encourage greater independence, and address behaviors that may interfere with learning, safety, or daily functioning." That's it. No bullet list. So we can put that as. Requirements: The mandatory items list: high school diploma or equivalent, valid driver's license, reliable transportation, active auto insurance with applicant listed as covered driver, current negative TB test. Also maybe physical and cognitive requirements? Could be separate but we can include under Requirements as well. However we have a separate "Physical And Cognitive Requirements" heading in the posting; we could treat that as Requirements as well. But we already have a Requirements heading; we could include both the mandatory qualifications and physical requirements under Requirements. But we also have Qualifications heading for desired attributes. Let's decide: - Requirements: mandatory items (high school diploma, driver's license, etc.) plus maybe physical/cognitive requirements? The posting has a separate "Physical And Cognitive Requirements" section with many bullet points. That is substantive; we should include it. Could be under Requirements or maybe a separate section like "Requirements" includes both. Since we have only one Requirements heading allowed, we can put all requirement-like content there. Thus Requirements will contain two parts: the mandatory qualifications list (maybe as
- ) and the physical and cognitive requirements list (also as
- High school diploma or equivalent
- Valid driver's license
- Reliable transportation
- Active auto insurance with the applicant listed as a covered driver
- Current negative TB test
- Frequently sit, stand, walk, bend, kneel, crouch, reach, and transition between floor-level and standing positions throughout the workday.
- Actively participate in developmentally appropriate client activities, including floor-based activities, movement-based activities, transitions, and safety monitoring.
- Safely navigate assigned work environments, including homes, clinics, schools, community settings, and remote/telehealth settings, as applicable.
- Occasionally lift, carry, push, pull, or move therapy materials and equipment, typically up to 50 pounds.
- Sit for extended periods while providing telehealth services or completing computer-based work as needed.
- Use hands and fingers to operate computers, keyboards, mobile devices, and other equipment requiring fine motor coordination.
- Maintain visual and auditory awareness to observe client behavior, monitor safety, and communicate effectively in both in-person and virtual settings.
- Read, understand, retain, and apply written and verbal information.
- Maintain attention, concentration, situational awareness, and sound judgment in dynamic environments.
- Collect, record, and submit accurate client data and session documentation.
- Maintain confidentiality and discretion when handling sensitive information.
- Maintain professionalism and emotional resilience when addressing sensitive client or employee matters, complaints, and workplace concerns.
- Paid Time Off (
- ). We'll need to preserve all details.
Qualifications: desired attributes: strong communication, problem-solving, creativity, reliability, professionalism, ability to work collaboratively with BCBAs and other members of the clinical team. Also maybe coursework/degrees/experience in psychology, education, human services, child development, or related fields are encouraged to apply. That is also a qualification. So we can put that as
- .
Skills: maybe not needed separately; but we could treat the desired attributes as Skills. However we already have Qualifications heading; we could put those under Skills. But we need to follow instruction: Use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to decide which to use.
We have content for:
- About the role
- Responsibilities
- Requirements (mandatory + physical)
- Qualifications (desired attributes/encouraged background)
- Skills (maybe not needed; we could omit if no specific skills beyond those)
- Benefits (PTO, sick leave, mileage reimbursement, drive time compensation, free RBT training, ongoing development, structured pay increases, incentive pay structure)
- Pay (compensation range $20-27 per hour, bilingual Spanish extra)
- Schedule (Mon-Fri 3-8pm, flexibility)
We should not create sections with filler. So we will include all those that have real content.
Now we need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like EEO, commitment, etc. Remove those.
Also remove "Our Commitment", "Equal Employment Opportunity and Reasonable Accommodation", "Job Posted by ApplicantPro". Also remove "Additional Benefits Include" maybe we keep as benefits.
Now craft HTML.
We'll need to escape any HTML special characters? Not needed.
We'll produce:
