Digital Reporter
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. Preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Content: Intro paragraph: Easterseals Southern California transforms lives... The Digital Reporter is responsible for finding compelling stories... Reporter will create, write, edit, and deliver polished video content for digital platforms. This role requires a quick turnaround... Working closely with the Director of Digital Content and Story Producer... The ideal candidate will excel in producing live, scripted and branded content, with strong storytelling skills and a background in news, ensuring dynamic and accurate coverage... Then "Starting Pay Range: $29.33/hr. - $36.54/hr." Then "OVERVIEW OF POSITION: ..." repeats earlier. Then "Essential Function" list of duties (bulleted? Actually each line starts with a verb). We'll treat as list. Then "Education Bachelor’s degree or equivalent work experience in Journalism, Communications or related field." Then "Experience Minimum 3+ years’ experience in digital or news reporting.Experience reporting and shooting content. Must provide 5+ video samples of completed work.Preferred work experience in television or other digital news reporting." Then "Knowledge, Skills, Abilities" list. Then physical demands: Carrying/Lifting, Standing, Sitting, Walking, Repetitive Motion/Activity, Visual Acuity, Travel, Environmental Exposure. We need to map to sections: About the role (overview), Responsibilities (essential functions), Requirements (education + experience?), Qualifications (maybe knowledge/skills?), Skills (maybe separate), Benefits (none given), Pay (starting pay range), Schedule (none given). We should only include sections with real content. We have Pay: Starting Pay Range: $29.33/hr. - $36.54/hr. So include Pay section. Schedule: Not mentioned. So omit. Benefits: Not mentioned. Omit. About the role: we have overview paragraph(s). Could combine intro and overview. Provide a
. Responsibilities: essential function list. Requirements: education and experience? Usually requirements include education and experience. Could put both under Requirements. Qualifications: maybe knowledge, skills, abilities? But we also have Skills section. The instruction says we can have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide mapping. We have Knowledge, Skills, Abilities list. That could go under Skills (or Qualifications). Since we have both Qualifications and Skills sections, we could put Knowledge, Skills, Abilities under Skills. Qualifications could be education + experience? But we already used Requirements for education+experience. Could also put Qualifications for preferred experience etc. But we need to avoid thin sections. Let's think. We have: - Education: Bachelor's degree or equivalent work experience in Journalism, Communications or related field. - Experience: Minimum 3+ years’ experience in digital or news reporting. Experience reporting and shooting content. Must provide 5+ video samples of completed work. Preferred work experience in television or other digital news reporting. - Knowledge, Skills, Abilities: list of many items. We could combine Education and Experience into Requirements (makes sense). Then Knowledge, Skills, Abilities into Skills. Qualifications maybe we could omit if no distinct content besides what's already covered. But we need to include a section only when posting has real specific content for it. If we don't have distinct qualifications beyond those, we could omit Qualifications. However we might treat "Knowledge, Skills, Abilities" as Qualifications, and Skills as maybe something else? But we don't have separate skills list beyond that. So better to put Knowledge, Skills, Abilities under Skills, and omit Qualifications. Thus sections: - About the role (overview) - Responsibilities (essential functions) - Requirements (education + experience) - Skills (knowledge, skills, abilities) - Pay (starting pay range) We must not include empty sections. Now format: Use
for each section heading. Then content:
for prose,
- for lists. We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the lists. Let's extract About the role prose: Could combine the introductory paragraphs and overview. The posting has some repetition. We need to preserve all substantive info but not duplicate lines. We should avoid repeating same sentences. Let's read the text: "Easterseals Southern California transforms lives every day. For over a century, Easterseals has championed inclusion and independence—delivering essential services like early childhood programs, autism services, employment and independent living support to more than 29,000 people each year. Through advocacy and education, we break barriers and create opportunities for the one-in-four Americans with disabilities. The Digital Reporter is responsible for finding compelling stories about Easterseals participants and staff that inform and engage people in support of our mission for full disability inclusion, equity and access. Reporter will create, write, edit, and deliver polished video content for digital platforms. This role requires a quick turnaround to ensure timely content for social media, capturing and sharing stories and events as they unfold. Working closely with the Director of Digital Content and Story Producer, the Digital Reporter will handle duties typical of the news field, such as interviewing, visiting locations, and covering Easterseals events. The ideal candidate will excel in producing live, scripted and branded content, with strong storytelling skills and a background in news, ensuring dynamic and accurate coverage that resonates with our audience across social media and digital platforms." Then "OVERVIEW OF POSITION: TheDigital Reporter is responsible for finding compelling stories aboutEasterseals participants and staff that inform and engage people in support ofour mission for full disability inclusion, equity and access.

This role requires a quickturnaround to ensure timely content for social media, capturing and sharingstories and events as they unfold. Working closely with the Director of DigitalContent and Story Producer, the Digital Reporter will handle duties typical ofthe news field, such as interviewing, visiting locations, and coveringEasterseals events. The ideal candidate will excel in producing live, scripted,and branded content, with strong storytelling skills and a background in news,ensuring dynamic and accurate coverage that resonates with our audience acrosssocial media and digital platforms." That's essentially same as earlier. We should not repeat duplicate content. So we can write a concise About the role paragraph that captures the mission and role responsibilities without repeating sentences verbatim but preserving all info. However instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." That means we cannot omit details; we must keep all substantive info. But we can rephrase? It says do not invent or summarize away detail. Summarizing away detail would be removing details. So we need to keep all details, but we can maybe combine them without losing any detail. However if we combine, we might lose some nuance? But we can include all details by listing them. Perhaps better to keep the original paragraphs but remove duplicate lines. The duplicate is essentially the same content repeated. We can keep one copy. Thus About the role: include the first paragraph (Easterseals Southern California transforms lives... up to ... across social media and digital platforms.) That's substantive. The overview repeats same; we can omit it as duplicate. Thus About the role paragraph: "Easterseals Southern California transforms lives every day. For over a century, Easterseals has championed inclusion and independence—delivering essential services like early childhood programs, autism services, employment and independent living support to more than 29,000 people each year.

The ideal candidate will excel in producing live, scripted and branded content, with strong storytelling skills and a background in news, ensuring dynamic and accurate coverage that resonates with our audience across social media and digital platforms." That seems to capture all. Now Responsibilities: Essential Function list. Let's extract each line: - Write, edit, and produce breaking news stories with a focus on accuracy, clarity, and visual impact. - Create, shoot, and edit high-quality video content for digital platforms, including internal and external audiences. - Using an iPhone to film and record content in the field, ensuring high-quality footage that meets platform standards. - Operate independently as a one-person production team when necessary, handling filming, and editing. - Collaborate with the Director of Digital Content and Story Producer to transform creative ideas into engaging and informative video content. - Work closely with the Stories team to identify trending topics, breaking news, and story opportunities, regularly pitching ideas. - Conduct interviews, research stories, and craft narratives that resonate with a broad audience. - Attend and cover Easterseals events, producing timely video stories that align with the organization’s messaging and objectives. - Coordinate field reporting, videos, photos, and social media embeds into cohesive, visually compelling stories. - Manage a high volume of video production in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment, ensuring all content is delivered on time. - Use strong editorial judgment to ensure the accuracy and integrity of all content, following brand guidelines and ethical standards. - Manage feedback from stakeholders and team members, incorporating revisions and ensuring final videos meet quality standards.
