CMA, Certified Medication Aide - PT Evenings
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to decide which sections are present.
We have:
- Job Summary (description of duties) -> could be Responsibilities.
- Qualifications (list of qualifications).
- Benefits (described).
- Pay: Salary Range: $18.50 - $28.00.
- Schedule: Shift: Evening, Job Schedule: Part time, Weekly Hours: 20.00.
- Possibly "About the role": The initial paragraph about organization could be considered About the role? Might be better as "About the role" summarizing the role? But we have a Job Summary already. The instruction says do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. Use headings for sections only when posting has real, specific content.
We have content for:
- Responsibilities (Job Summary details)
- Qualifications (list)
- Benefits (described)
- Pay (Salary Range)
- Schedule (Shift, Job Schedule, Weekly Hours)
We could also have "About the role" maybe not needed because we have Job Summary. But we could include "About the role" as a brief description of organization? However the instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We could combine About the role and Responsibilities? But they want headings exactly as examples; we can choose which to include.
We have substantive content for Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. That's five sections. That's okay.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, accommodation, drug free workplace, etc. Remove those.
We must preserve all substantive information: need to keep details like facility, location, address, shift, schedule, weekly hours, salary range, job summary details, qualifications details, benefits details.
We need to format using for each section heading, then content:
for prose,
- for lists.
We need to decide what goes in each section.
Responsibilities: The Job Summary paragraph plus bullet list of duties? The job summary includes many duties in prose. Could break into
- for each duty. But we can also keep as prose. The instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So if we have a list, we should use ul. The job summary includes many duties separated by commas and semicolons; we could turn them into list items. But we need to preserve all substantive information; we can convert to list.
Qualifications: list of qualifications (high school graduate preferred, minimum age, prior experience, continuing education, certifications per state). Could be list.
Benefits: list of benefits (health insurance, dental, vision, life, 401(k), work/life balance, generous time off). Could be list.
Pay: just salary range; could be
. Schedule: shift, job schedule, weekly hours; could be
or list. Also need to include facility, location, address? Where to put? Could be in About the role? But we don't have About the role section. Could add a short
under Responsibilities? Or maybe include in a brief intro paragraph before sections? The instruction: Output ONLY the HTML fragment. We can include a leading
for the organizational description? Not required to be under a heading. The instruction says use
for section headings; we can have other
outside headings. It didn't forbid that. So we can start with a
containing the "Careers With Purpose..." paragraph and facility/location/address. Then headings for sections. We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; we can drop them. We must remove boilerplate: EEO, accommodation request, drug free workplace, etc. We must not include application instructions. Let's extract substantive content: Opening paragraph: "Careers With Purpose Join our not-for-profit organization that has provided over 100 years of housing and services to seniors with a commitment to quality care and service in a Christian environment." Then facility details: "Facility: Gss Ne Hastings Perkins Pav Location: Hastings, NE Address: 300 S 1st Ave, Hastings, NE 68901, USA Shift: Evening Job Schedule: Part time Weekly Hours: 20.00 Salary Range: $18.50 - $28.00" We could separate shift/schedule/hours/pay into respective sections later.

then maybe- ... each duty as separate li. But we have a long paragraph; we could break into multiple li items.
