We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections with real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate like EEO, etc. Must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Must include Pay and Benefits if present. Schedule? Not mentioned; no schedule info, so omit Schedule. Also maybe "Work Location" is metadata; could fold into short p. We need to parse content: The posting includes: - Work Location: Michigan - Job Type Full time - Description: "God has called InterVarsity..." etc. This is about the role. So we can put under

About the role

with paragraphs. - Essential Commitments/Responsibilities: includes many bullet-like paragraphs. We need to turn into
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. The responsibilities are long prose but can be broken into list items for each bullet? The instruction: Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

      for prose. So we need to decide if responsibilities are a list; they appear as paragraphs with headings like "Spiritual Growth", "Campus Leadership", etc. Could treat each major heading as a list item? But they are not explicit list. However we can still wrap each responsibility paragraph in

    • inside a
        . Probably better to treat the whole responsibilities as a
          with each major duty as
        • . We'll extract each bullet-like sentence. But we must preserve ALL substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the content but can reformat. We'll create sections:

          About the role

          ... (the introductory paragraph about mission, Grand Rapids CSM, campuses, momentum, specialization opportunities).

          Responsibilities

          • Spiritual Growth: Pursue maturity as a disciple of Jesus Christ ... (the whole paragraph under Spiritual Growth).
          • Campus Leadership: Communicate and model InterVarsity’s vision ... (the whole paragraph under Campus Leadership).
          • Organizational Collaboration: Work with a network ... (the whole paragraph under Organizational Collaboration).
          • Ministry Partnership Development: Develop a team of partners ... (the whole paragraph under Ministry Partnership Development).
          • Accomplish All Other Assigned Tasks As Appropriate.
          But we need to ensure we don't lose details like "Under the direction of the Area Director, may supervise Ministry Interns..." etc. Those are inside Campus Leadership paragraph; we keep them. Next, Qualifications: There's a section "QUALIFICATIONS (common to all levels of CSM)" with bullet points. We'll put under

          Qualifications

          with
          • each. Also there is "Work Environment/Physical Requirements" which could be under Requirements? The instruction: Use

            for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we could treat "Work Environment/Physical Requirements" as Requirements. We'll put under

            Requirements

            with

            prose (or maybe

              if list). It's a paragraph describing work environment; we can put as

              . Skills: There's a list of skills under Qualifications? Actually Qualifications includes "Strong interpersonal skills... Excellent verbal and written communication skills... Demonstrated problem solving skills Familiarity with word processing, presentation, email, and spreadsheet software". Those could be considered Skills. But we already have Qualifications section; we could split: Qualifications for education/affiliation, Skills for abilities. However instruction says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. We could combine skills into Qualifications or Requirements. But we have separate headings allowed; we need to include only if real specific content. We have specific content for skills; we could make a Skills section. But we already have Qualifications covering education and statements; we could also have Skills. That's okay; not too many sections. We'll create:

              Skills

              • Strong interpersonal skills (including ability to minister to diverse ethnic communities and faculty)
              • Excellent verbal and written communication skills
              • Demonstrated problem solving skills
              • Familiarity with word processing, presentation, email, and spreadsheet software
              Pay: There's a Pay Range and description. We'll put under

              Pay

              with

              containing the range and explanation. Benefits: There's a Benefits paragraph with list. We'll put under

              Benefits

              with
              • each benefit. Schedule: Not present, omit. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, equal opportunity, etc. Remove that. Also remove "Work Location: Michigan Job Type Full time" maybe fold into short p under About the role or separate metadata. We'll include a short p at start:

                Work Location: Michigan. Job Type: Full time.

                under About the role? But we already have About the role prose; we can add that as a separate p before the mission description. We must not repeat job title as heading; we aren't. Now produce HTML fragment. Let's craft content precisely. About the role paragraph: Combine mission description and location. Original: "Work Location: Michigan Job Type Full time God has called InterVarsity to plant and to build witnessing communities of students and faculty who follow Jesus on college and university campuses. Through these groups, we believe ever- increasing numbers of students and faculty from all ethnic groups and areas of the campus will be transformed by the Gospel. We expect to see campuses increasingly become places where people, ideas, and structures flourish to the glory of God. We confidently anticipate that our InterVarsity alumni will become change agents across the country and around the world. We pursue this calling by discerning and actively participating in what God is already doing on campus. This is the essence of being a Campus Staff Minister (CSM). The Grand Rapids CSM will work with students and faculty at campuses such as Grand Valley State University, Davenport University, and Grand Rapids Community College. Several of these ministries, especially at Grand Valley State University and Davenport University, have been experiencing significant momentum and growth in the past 3 years - we are looking for someone who can help take the ministry to the next level. Additionally, if desired, there are opportunities to specialize in Greek, Athletes, and ethnic-specific ministries as well." We'll put that as

                ...

                maybe split into two p's: one for location/job type, another for mission. Now Responsibilities: We need to capture all details under Spiritual Growth, Campus Leadership, Organizational Collaboration, Ministry Partnership Development, and "Accomplish All Other Assigned Tasks As Appropriate." Let's extract each: Spiritual Growth paragraph: "You Pursue Maturity As a Disciple Of Jesus Christ So That Your Life And Work Increasingly Reflects a Growing Love For God, God’s Word, God’s People Of Every Ethnicity And Culture, And God’s Purposes In The World. To Do This, You Will Pursue a vibrant relationship with the triune God through engagement with Scripture, prayer, and worship, both individually and in community Develop self-leadership (growing in self-awareness, self-management, relational integrity, and resiliency) Embrace Scriptural standards for behavior and attitudes" We'll keep as one string. Campus Leadership paragraph: "You communicate and model InterVarsity’s vision to see students and faculty transformed, campuses renewed and world changers developed Create a culture of humble dependence on God and bold expectation in God’s intention to start new witnessing communities throughout the campus and on new campuses Model – in person and through programs – InterVarsity’s vision and Core Values, including a biblically-defined commitment to engage every ethnic and social group on campus Lead students and faculty – individually and collectively – through Scripture, prayer, teaching, and discipleship experiences, so that they articulate and align their ministry activities around this vision Set annual goals through prayer, research and reflection with your teams (students, faculty, and staff) for qualitative and quantitative growth, including conversions and leadership development You create, develop, align and leverage ministry plans, programs, teams, and structures to close the gap between current reality and the aspirational goals. Build leadership teams who trust and partner well with you and who demonstrate spiritual vitality, relational health, and mission alignment Develop and execute plans to achieve annual goals, evaluating and modifying the plan as needed throughout the year Increase momentum for the vision by aligning programs, structures, conferences and teams around the goals Mobilize students and faculty to engage their relational networks with the gospel and to start new missional communities Under the direction of the Area Director, may supervise Ministry Interns and Campus Ministry Interns as delegated You intentionally gather, invite, and develop diverse groups of students and faculty so that they not only encounter and follow Jesus as Savior and Lord but also advance the mission on campus as participants and leaders. Create ways for faculty and students to encounter and follow Jesus through Scripture, worship, prayer, mission experiences, conferences, etc. Equip students and faculty so that they think strategically about campus engagement and so that they proclaim – in word, deed, and power – the good news of Jesus, regularly inviting students and faculty to follow him as Savior and Lord Disciple students and faculty by equipping them to hear the Word, respond actively, and debrief and interpret the experience so that they grow in Christlikeness, reflect our Core Values, and develop ministry skills Invite, coach, and equip students and faculty to become increasingly effective participants and leaders, including starting new witnessing communities on campuses" That's huge; we keep as is. Organizational Collaboration paragraph: "You work with a network of other local, area, regional, and national InterVarsity staff and volunteers so that our work reflects Biblical standards of excellence, integrity, and partnership. Partner with and respond positively to the direction and coaching of your supervisors and national leaders Contribute to collaborative and productive team meetings and relationships Affiliate chapters under your care and submit Graduating Student Forms in order to increase our partnership with current students and alumni Use national ministry resources and tools, as requested, including recruiting and/or participating in local, regional, or national conferences as required Complete reporting, planning and review requirements in a timely way so that you and your supervisors can assess and improve your work as a CSM Comply with all InterVarsity policies and procedures" Ministry Partnership Development paragraph: "You will develop a team of partners – churches and individuals (including alumni and community members) – who will resource the ministry financially, in prayer, or volunteer service that advances the mission. Raise 100% of the financial budget assigned by your supervisor Communicate regularly with your ministry partners, nurturing the relationship through visits, phone calls, emails and regular prayer letters Develop on-going, long-lasting partnership with alumni and volunteers Comply with all Ministry Partnership Policies Identify and invest in advocates who will build networks of volunteers and donors on InterVarsity’s behalf Accomplish All Other Assigned Tasks As Appropriate" Note "Accomplish All Other Assigned Tasks As Appropriate" appears at end of both Campus Leadership and Ministry Partnership Development? Actually appears at end of Ministry Partnership Development paragraph. We'll include as separate li maybe. We'll create li for each major heading. Now Qualifications section: "QUALIFICATIONS (common to all levels of CSM) Annually affirm InterVarsity’s Statement of Agreement (Doctrinal Basis and Purpose Statement). Abide by InterVarsity’s Code of Conduct. Believe and behave consonantly with InterVarsity’s Human Sexuality Theological Paper. Affirm and behave consonantly with InterVarsity’s “Women in Ministry Statement of Affirmation” Bachelor’s degree required for CSMs assigned to a four-year campus. A minimum of an Associate’s degree required for CSMs assigned to a two-year campus or a community college" We'll make li each.
