Customer Service Guide | Public Benefits Specialist - Entry | Bilingual Required Englsih/Spanish
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections with real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate like EEO, legal, navigation, cookie, duplicated lines, application instructions. Must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits unless posting actually states them. The posting includes Salary Range $3,798 - $4,954 (monthly? non-PERS). So we have Pay info. Also Benefits: they list benefits: ODHS Employee Resource Group communities, Cost of Living Adjustments, Annual salary increases, Amazing benefits package, Possible eligibility for Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program. Also mention PERS increase. So Benefits section is appropriate. Schedule: they say "Work schedule is a tradition work week, Monday-Friday in the Hermiston, Oregon, office." So we have schedule info. So we can include Schedule section.
We need sections: About the role (maybe summary), Responsibilities (Summary Of Duties), Requirements (Minimum Qualifications), Qualifications (maybe Essential Attributes?), Skills (maybe from Essential Attributes), Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Use for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information. Must not invent or summarize away detail. Must not include boilerplate like EEO, equal opportunity, etc. Must remove duplicated lines, navigation, cookie, legal, EEO, scam-warning, application instructions (like "Please include detailed work and education history", "Attention all candidates! Clearly describe how you meet..." etc). Those are application instructions; we must remove them. Also remove "Opportunity awaits! Step into a role..." maybe that's part of About the role? It's substantive? It's more fluff but maybe keep as part of About the role. However we need to preserve all substantive information; fluff may be considered not substantive? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we should keep the descriptive paragraphs about role, mission, etc. But we must remove application instructions like "Attention all candidates! Clearly describe how you meet..." and "Please include detailed work and education history." Also remove "Note: Your resume and cover letter may be uploaded..." etc. Also remove "The use of outside resources such as Artificial Intelligence software..." etc. Also remove "The State of Oregon does not request or require your age..." etc. Also remove "Background Checks And Requirements" maybe that's substantive? It's about hiring process; maybe considered boilerplate? It's not about job duties. Might be considered not substantive for role description. The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." Background check info could be considered legal/boilerplate; but it's about hiring process. Might be considered boilerplate. Safer to remove it. Also "Additional background check information." Remove. Also "ODHS will use E-Verify..." etc. Remove. Also "May require a valid driver’s license..." maybe relevant to job? Could be considered requirement. Might keep as part of Requirements? It's a condition. Might keep as a bullet under Requirements? But it's not explicitly a qualification; it's a condition. Might keep as part of Requirements? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; but we can decide to keep it as part of Requirements if it's a condition. However it's more about hiring process. I'd lean to keep it as a note under Requirements maybe. But to be safe, I'd keep it as a bullet under Requirements (since it's a condition). However the instruction says remove application instructions; background check is not application instruction. It's a condition of employment. Might be considered substantive. I'd keep it.
Also "Opportunity awaits! Step into a role where your efforts directly empower Oregonians..." is fluff but maybe part of About the role. Keep.
Now we need to structure.
Let's extract sections:
About the role: Could include introductory paragraph: "The Oregon Department of Human Services is proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer..." but that's EEO boilerplate; we should remove EEO statements. However the first sentence about being proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer is EEO boilerplate; remove. The next sentences about Equity North Star, vision, encouraging applications from underrepresented groups: that's also EEO/diversity statement; likely boilerplate. Remove. So we may start after that: "Bilingual Required | English & Spanish To qualify for this position, you must be bilingual in English & Spanish. The job offer will be contingent upon passing a test evaluating your proficiency in the bilingual requirements for this position. Upon passing the test, you will receive 5% bilingual differential pay." That's about bilingual requirement and pay differential. Could be part of Requirements or Pay? It's about bilingual requirement and pay differential. Might be part of Requirements (language requirement) and Pay (differential). We'll handle.
Then "Opportunity awaits! Step into a role where your efforts directly empower Oregonians to rise above poverty, become a key player in the Oregon Eligibility Partnership and facilitate access to vital services that foster equity and well-being. As a Customer Service Guide (Public Benefits Specialist – Entry), you will work in our Hermiston office assisting Oregonians in-person. Hermiston is in rural Northeastern Oregon. Learn more about Hermiston: https://www.hermiston.gov/" That's About the role.
Then "Summary Of Duties As a Public Benefits Specialist - Entry, you will:" followed by bullet list (but in prose). We'll convert to
- .
Then "Minimum Qualifications To qualify for this position, you must be bilingual in Spanish and English. ANDTwo years of experience working in a reception area or call center either interviewing to obtain information or providing customer service. This experience must have involved a high volume of work (e.g., data entry, assuring information on applications is complete and accurate, completing necessary documents, etc.); ORAn associate degree in Behavioral Science, Social Science or a closely related field AND six months of experience working in a busy reception area or call center either interviewing to obtain information or providing customer service; ORAn equivalent combination of education, training, and experience relative to the class concept."
Then "Essential Attributes We are looking for candidates with:" followed by bullet list.
Then "Attention all candidates! Clearly describe how you meet the minimum qualifications and essential attributes in your application materials...." That's application instruction; remove.
Then "Please include detailed work and education history. Please make sure your application materials, resume and job history are clearly outlined as this information will be used to determine your starting salary range." Remove.
Then "Note: Your resume and cover letter may be uploaded in the Resume/CV field on the online application." Remove.
Then "The use of outside resources such as Artificial Intelligence software during applicant skill assessments, examinations, and/or interviews is prohibited unless otherwise stated by the hiring agency. Unauthorized use of outside resources during the hiring process will result in disqualification." Remove.
Then "The State of Oregon does not request or require your age, date of birth, attendance or graduation dates from an educational institution during the application process." Remove.
Then "Working Conditions Work schedule is a tradition work week, Monday-Friday in the Hermiston, Oregon, office.Experience working directly with the public, including individuals who may be experiencing homelessness and may arrive in unclean or unsanitary conditions, as well as supporting and calmly de‑escalating customers experiencing emotional or financial stress.Experience high volume of computer work, using various computer programs in a fast-paced team environment.Priorities and procedures may change daily and require the ability to be flexible in application of procedures. This position is in the Self Sufficiency store front office."
We can extract schedule: "Work schedule is a tradition work week, Monday-Friday in the Hermiston, Oregon, office." Also other working conditions could be part of About the role or Responsibilities? Might be part of Working Conditions but we only have Schedule section; we could include other conditions in About the role or Responsibilities? But we should not create sections unless we have real specific content. We have schedule info; we can put that in Schedule section. The other conditions (experience working with public, high volume computer work, flexibility) could be part of Responsibilities or Requirements? They are more about working conditions; maybe we can include them in About the role as part of description. But we must preserve all substantive info; we could add a paragraph under About the role describing working conditions. However the instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could fold those into About the role or Responsibilities. Let's put them in About the role after the location description.
Then "Background Checks And Requirements If selected as a finalist, we will conduct a criminal history and background check. Adverse criminal history or background checks may lead to disqualification. Additional background check information.The Oregon Department of Human Services does not offer visa sponsorship. Within three days of hire, you will be required to complete the US Department of Homeland Security’s I-9 form confirming authorization to work in the United States. ODHS will use E-Verify to confirm that you are authorized to work in the United States.May require a valid driver’s license or other acceptable method of transportation."
We could keep the driver's license requirement as part of Requirements (maybe under Minimum Qualifications). The rest is boilerplate; we can remove.
Then "Benefits ODHS Employee Resource Group communities that promote shared learning.Cost of Living Adjustments.Annual salary increases (until you reach the top of the listed salary range).Amazing benefits package.Possible eligibility for the Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program."
Then "Employment Preference Veterans’ And Oregon National Guard Preference Eligible Veterans and Oregon National Guard servicemembers (current and former) who meet the qualifications of the position will be awarded candidate preference. For more information, please visit Veterans Resources." This is a preference; could be part of Benefits or Requirements? It's a preference; maybe we can include in Benefits as a bullet? But it's not a benefit per se; it's a hiring preference. Might be considered part of Requirements? It's not a qualification; it's a preference. Might be considered boilerplate? Not exactly. Could be omitted as it's not core job description. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; but this is about employment preference; maybe it's substantive. However it's not about the role itself. Might be considered part of Benefits? I'd lean to keep it as a bullet under Benefits? But it's not a benefit; it's a preference. Could be part of "About the role"? Not really. Safer to keep it as a bullet under Benefits? Might be misrepresenting. Perhaps we can include a section "Employment Preference" but we only have allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. No separate heading for Veterans preference. So we could fold it into Benefits as a bullet: "Veterans’ and Oregon National Guard preference eligible". That seems okay.
Then "General Information This is a permanent, full-time position and is represented by the Service Employees International Union (SEIU). The salary range listed is the non-PERS monthly salary range. If you are already a participating PERS member or once you become PERS eligible, the salary range will increase by 6.95%.This recruitment may be used to fill future vacancies in the same classification." This includes salary range info (already covered) and union info. Could be part of About the role or Pay. We'll keep union info maybe in About the role.
