Pay
For the state of New Jersey only, the pay range is $20.00 to $22.00, depending upon qualifications, experience and other considerations permitted by law.
We should not include Schedule. Check for any boilerplate: We removed EEO statements etc. Also removed "Additional Information Physical Demands:" etc. Those are substantive? They are physical demands and working environment. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Should we include a section for Physical Demands? Not in the list of allowed headings. The allowed headings are only those enumerated. So we cannot create a section for Physical Demands. Should we drop that info? The instruction says "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." But we cannot create a heading not allowed. However we could fold that info into an existing section like Requirements or Skills? It's not exactly a requirement but could be placed under Requirements maybe as a list? But the spec says use those headings only for those categories. It didn't forbid adding other headings, but says "Usefor section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It gives examples but not exclusive? It says "use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." Likely they expect only those headings. And "IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text". So we should not create a section for Physical Demands because it's not in the list. But we must preserve ALL substantive information. However the physical demands info is substantive. If we cannot add a heading, maybe we can incorporate into Requirements or Skills as a list? But it's not really a requirement or skill; it's about physical demands. Could be placed under Requirements as "Physical Demands:" but that would be a subheading not allowed? Might be okay to include as a
within Requirements? The spec says use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we could add a
under Requirements describing physical demands. That would preserve info without a new heading. Let's do that: after the Requirements list, add a
with the physical demands and working environment details. Similarly, we could add any other info like "Additional Information Physical Demands:" etc. We'll incorporate as a paragraph under Requirements. Let's extract the physical demands and working environment text: Physical Demands: Sit: Must be able to remain in a stationary position - Frequently – 21% to 50% Walk: Must be able to move about inside/outside office or work location - Constantly – at least 51% Use hands to finger, handle, or feel: Operates a computer and other office machinery - Constantly – at least 51% Stoop, kneel, crouch, or crawl: Must be able to crouch down to stock shelves, pick up boxes, or position oneself to maintain computers in the lab/under desks/in server closet - Constantly – at least 51% Climb or balance: Must be able to ascend/descend on a ladder, forklift, pallet jack, or other warehouse equipment - Occasionally – up to 20% Talk, hear, taste, smell: Must be able to use

with. - Schedule: Not mentioned. No schedule info. So we should not include Schedule section. Also we might include a short paragraph for metadata like location? The location is given in first line: "Warshauer Electric Supply team in Woodbury, NJ!" Could be part of About the role or separate? The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Location is minor metadata; we could include a short
before sections? But we need to preserve all substantive information. Location is substantive? It's location of job. Could be included in About the role paragraph. We already have summary; we could add location there. The summary currently doesn't mention location. We could incorporate location into About the role paragraph: "We are looking for a Counter Sales Representative to join our Warshauer Electric Supply team in Woodbury, NJ! Summary: ..." That's already present in the posting. So we can keep that as is. We must not repeat the job title as a heading. The job title is Counter Sales Representative. We should not make a heading for it. We'll not. We must output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's construct:
