Camp Specialty Instructor - Cheer
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections when posting has real specific content. We need to preserve all substantive info, no invented details. Remove boilerplate, navigation, EEO, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. We need to decide which sections to include.
Let's parse the posting:
- Intro paragraph about YMCA: "As a thought-leader...". This is about organization, not role. Could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" heading is for description of role. The intro could be considered "About the role" or maybe we can include a brief description. The instruction: "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it)". So we can have a heading "About the role" with prose describing the role. The intro includes mission, etc. Might be appropriate.
- Then "Nature And Scope Under the direction of the Youth Development Director, the Camp Specialty Instructor is primarily responsible for creating the curriculum and running the specialty program. They are responsible for execution of program activities, transitions, incident reports, and leading counselors. This role provides guidance, safety, leadership, and education for children served at camps. Areas of need for Specialty Instructors (include, but not limited to): Archery, Arts and Crafts, Basketball, Cheer, Tumbling, Climbing Wall and Ropes Course, Cooking, Dance, Drama, Theater, Fitness, Flag Football, Kayak and Paddleboard, LEGO, Music, Nature, Pickleball, Robotics, Sports, STEM, Swim, Gaming, Tennis, and Volleyball"
That's description of role responsibilities and areas of need. Could go under "Responsibilities" or "About the role". The posting later has a section "RESPONSIBILITIES (including, But Not Limited To)" with bullet list. So we should put that under Responsibilities
with - items.
Then "Critical Competencies Based On Needs Specific To Role" list of competencies. Could be under "Skills" or "Qualifications". Might be "Skills". We'll decide.
Then "Requirements" section with bullet list: 18 years..., High School Diploma..., 2+ years experience..., Background and expertise..., Working knowledge of computers..., Excellent interpersonal..., Ability to handle multiple tasks..., Strong customer service..., Must pass BFTS background check..., CPR/First Aid..., Ergonomics list.
Then after that: "It's fun to work in an organization where people truly BELIEVE in what they are doing!" That's fluff, maybe can be omitted? It's not boilerplate but it's not substantive? Might be considered filler. We could include as part of "About the role" maybe.
Then "Employment and Benefits package for this job posting is offered through the YMCA of Metropolitan Atlanta, Inc." That's generic. Then "Employment Requirement Ability to pass a pre-employment background check including Criminal Record check, Drug Screening and motor vehicle record (MVR) according to company policy.Must be legally eligible to work in the US without current or future sponsorship." This repeats background check etc. Already covered. Might be considered duplicate.
Then "This job posting is subject to change at any time." Boilerplate.
Then "The YMCA of Metropolitan Atlanta offers excellent benefits and career opportunities as part of our culture of excellence. The opportunities to serve are vast, and we’re looking for like minded people, who share our values of CARING, HONESTY, RESPECT, and RESPONSIBILITY to join us and do their best work." This is benefits/values but not specific benefits. No concrete benefits listed (health insurance, retirement, etc). So we should NOT create a Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It does not list specific benefits, just says "excellent benefits". That's vague; we should not create Benefits section because it's not specific. Similarly Pay and Schedule not mentioned.
Thus we will have sections: About the role (maybe combine intro and nature and scope?), Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills (or Qualifications). The posting also has "Critical Competencies Based On Needs Specific To Role" which could be Skills. Also "Requirements" already a section.
We need to avoid duplicate content. Ensure we preserve all substantive info.
Let's extract substantive info:
Organization description: Could be part of About the role? Might be considered "About the role" but it's more about the YMCA. However we can include a brief paragraph about the role's context: "As a thought-leader...". It's not directly about role but could be considered background. The instruction: "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." So we can include a
about the organization under About the role.
Thus About the role section: include the introductory paragraph about YMCA mission and impact, plus the Nature And Scope paragraph (which describes role). Could combine.
Responsibilities: list from RESPONSIBILITIES section.
Requirements: list from Requirements section.
Skills: list from Critical Competencies.
We must not include sections like Benefits, Pay, Schedule because no specific content.
We must not include duplicated lines: e.g., background check appears both in Requirements and later Employment Requirement; we should include only once.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO, etc.
Now format:
