County Extension Director
for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not repeat job title. Must preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; fold minor metadata into short
or drop it. We need to extract substantive info: Position Overview, Essential Job Duties, Responsibilities, Requirements and Preferences, Department Required Skills, Preferred Years Experience..., Required License Or Certification, Recruitment Details (Anticipated Hiring Range Minimum $50,000 commensurate with education and experience), Work Schedule (8:00 am - 5:00 pm, evenings and weekends as required), Benefits listed earlier: Paid time off, Paid tuition, Health Insurance, Flexible Scheduling, Retirement Savings, Supplemental Benefits Programs, WolfPerks! Also mention "You Belong Here!" maybe not needed. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience" etc. For Pay, we have Anticipated Hiring Range Minimum $50,000 commensurate with education and experience. That's actual content: minimum $50,000. So we can include Pay section with that detail. For Schedule we have work schedule. Benefits we have list. We must not include sections that are empty or placeholder. We need to decide which headings to use: About the role (maybe Position Overview), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have content for About the role: Position Overview paragraph. Responsibilities: list of duties (Essential Job Duties, Other Duties, etc). We'll combine. Requirements: maybe Minimum Experience/Education. Qualifications: maybe Preferred Years Experience, Skills, Training, Education. Skills: Department Required Skills (list). Benefits: list. Pay: Anticipated Hiring Range Minimum $50,000. Schedule: Work Schedule. We must not repeat duplicated lines. Ensure we preserve all substantive info.

But we will later have Benefits section separate; we might still include overview but not repeat benefits list. We'll keep overview as prose.

Preferred: "Administrative and supervisory experience, including experience with human resource development, fiscal resource management, and external relations." Department Required Skills: list: "exceptional communication, managerial and leadership skills. Excellent public relations skills and the ability to connect the local program needs with N.C.

No List Any Other Medical/drug Tests Required" Recruitment Details: "Anticipated Hiring Range Minimum $50,000 commensurate with education and experience" Work Schedule: "8:00 am - 5:00 pm, evenings and weekends as required" Benefits list earlier: "Paid time offPaid tuitionHealth InsuranceFlexible SchedulingRetirement SavingsSupplemental Benefits ProgramsWolfPerks!" Also maybe "You Belong Here!" but that's more tagline. We need to format Benefits as
- items. The list currently is concatenated without spaces: "Paid time offPaid tuitionHealth InsuranceFlexible SchedulingRetirement SavingsSupplemental Benefits ProgramsWolfPerks!" We need to split: Paid time off, Paid tuition, Health Insurance, Flexible Scheduling, Retirement Savings, Supplemental Benefits Programs, WolfPerks! We'll output each as li.
Now we need to avoid duplication: The overview already mentioned some benefits; but we can keep overview and still have Benefits section; it's okay as long as not duplicate exact same sentences. Overlap is okay but we should avoid repeating the list verbatim in overview. The overview currently includes "Some of our benefits include: Paid time offPaid tuitionHealth InsuranceFlexible SchedulingRetirement SavingsSupplemental Benefits ProgramsWolfPerks!" That's basically the list. To avoid duplication, we could remove that sentence from overview, but we must preserve ALL substantive information. If we remove that sentence, we lose the benefit list from overview. However we will have a Benefits section that includes the list, preserving the info. The overview sentence is substantive but we can rephrase overview to not include the list, but we must preserve the info somewhere else. Since we will have Benefits section with the list, we can omit the list from overview and still preserve the info. The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." Removing the list from overview but putting it in Benefits section preserves it, not summarizing away. It's okay.
Thus we will edit overview to exclude the benefits list sentence. We'll keep the rest.
Now we need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like EEO, etc. We'll cut those.
Now construct HTML.
We'll start with
About the role
thenoverview (without benefits list). Then maybe
Responsibilities
then- ... combine essential duties and other duties into list items. Could be many items; we can break into logical items. We need to preserve all substantive info; we can create list items for each duty/responsibility. Let's extract duties: From Essential Job Duties paragraph: - Provide leadership for and coordinate the efforts of the county Extension staff in developing an effective total county Extension educational program in cooperation with North Carolina A&T State University’s Cooperative Extension Program. - Provide visionary leadership for a comprehensive Extension program to meet the needs of all segments of the population. - Serve as the County Extension administrative leader with responsibilities for administration, public policy issues, and community/leadership development. - Maintain an effective advisory leadership system representative of all program areas. - Provide leadership and expertise in coordinating/securing resource development for all program areas. - Market Extension programs and impacts. - Maintain a strong, collaborative relationship in assisting the staff in delivering educational programs with county government input and support. - Network and collaborate with agencies and organizations, county departments, schools, town officials, area
