Actually those seem to be steps of hiring process with associated pay after certain years? It lists steps and pay scale per years. We'll keep as a list.
- Hiring Process Steps: The same list maybe includes steps. Actually the list includes both steps and pay. Could combine? But we need separate sections only if real specific content. We have both steps and pay scale; maybe we can have a "Hiring Process" section listing steps (Application Submitted, Panel Interview, CVSA, Background Investigation, Conditional Offer, PRADCO Assessment, Second Interview with Jail Director/Jail Tour, Drug Screen and Medical Exam, Final Interview with Sheriff Balzer). And a "Pay Scale" section listing the pay per years (or per step). However the posting lumps them together. We'll separate: Hiring Process Steps (list of steps) and Pay Scale (list of pay per years). Ensure we don't invent.
