Direct Support Professional Senior (Intermittent/On-Call) - Behavior Modification Assistant
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections where there is real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc as headings; can fold minor metadata into short
or drop it. We need to preserve all substantive information, remove boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions). Also remove duplicated lines like "The work you'll do is more than just a job." appears twice; we should keep only once? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove duplicated lines. So we need to deduplicate repeated sentences. We need to include sections: About the role (maybe a brief description), Responsibilities, Requirements (minimum qualifications), Qualifications (preferred qualifications?), Skills (maybe combine?), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide what content goes where. Let's extract substantive info: Job details: - Working Title: Direct Support Professional Senior (Intermittent/On-Call) - Job Class: Behavior Modification Assistant - Agency: Direct Care and Treatment - Location: Coon Rapids - Telework Eligible: No - Full/Part Time: Intermittent - Regular/Temporary: Unlimited - Who May Apply: Open to all qualified job seekers - Date Posted: 09/24/2026 - Closing Date: 09/30/2026 - Hiring Agency/Seniority Unit: Direct Care and Treatment / IEM - DCT MSOCS IWT - Division/Unit: MSOCS FC Crestview - Work Shift/Work Hours: Days/Evenings/Overnights/Rotating Shift (ex: 7:00a.m. – 3:30 p.m.; 3:00 p.m. – 11:00 p.m.; hours may vary depending on the needs of the program) - Days of Work: Varies; may include weekends and holidays - Travel Required: Yes (50%, Transport and accompany individuals to medical appointments, community outings, recreational activities, and spiritual events) - Salary Range: $24.54 - $31.43 / hourly - Classified Status: Classified - Bargaining Unit/Union: 218 - Insufficient Work Time/Unrep - FLSA Status: Nonexempt - Designated in Connect 700 Program for Applicants with Disabilities: Yes Then descriptive paragraphs: "The work you'll do is more than just a job. At the State of Minnesota, employees play a critical role in developing policies, providing essential services, and working to improve the well-being and quality of life for all Minnesotans. The State of Minnesota is committed to equity and inclusion, and invests in employees by providing benefits, support resources, and training and development opportunities." Then repeated: "The work you'll do is more than just a job." We'll keep one. Then: "Direct Care and Treatment (DCT) is unable to provide sponsorship for work visas. Applicants must be eligible to work in the United States at the start of employment. DCT does not participate in E-Verify." Then: "This posting may be used to fill multiple permanent intermittent (on-call) Direct Care positions within DCT Community Based Services sites in Mounds View, MN. Shifts Available: Day, rotating (day/evening combination) OR overnight. We also offer shift differential for hours between 6:00 pm and 6:00 am!" Then responsibilities bullet list (in prose): "As a Direct Support Professional Senior, you will be responsible for supporting individuals who are in our short- and long-term housing program. These individuals may have intellectual disabilities, mental illness, brain injury, and other emotional, behavioral, medical complexities. In this position you will ensure the people we serve achieve their highest quality of life and personal growth! You will do this by Assisting in assessing individual's needs by performing direct care duties Developing and implementing residential and habilitation support plans with goals and methods. Evaluating and documenting out-comes, maintaining or modifying the plans and performing related work as required. Respond therapeutically using de-escalation strategies and positive behavior supports to individuals with challenging behaviors" Then: "With locations across Minnesota, it is likely we will have a vacancy near you, working at one home rather than multiple locations!" Then Minimum Qualifications heading and list: - Experience working with individuals with intellectual disabilities, mental illness, and/or co-occurring diagnosis. - Experience with verbal de-escalation strategies and working with individuals who exhibit aggressive behaviors. - Clear communication skills to understand and communicate complex services with community members, employers and teams. - Must be at least 18 years of age. - Basic math and computer skills. - Must possess and maintain a valid Driver's License. - Must be able to perform all physical/essential requirements with or without reasonable accommodation(s). Then Preferred Qualifications heading and list: - Our employees are dedicated to ensuring cultural responsiveness. Preferred candidates will have a variety of experiences working effectively with others from different backgrounds and cultures. - Experience collecting and summarizing data to document program delivery by observation, charting and measuring. - Formal training/certification/education in related field (CNA, PCA, Child Development, First Aide, CPR, etc.) - Certified Nursing Assistant experience working in a group home, nursing home, assisted living or similar setting. Then Additional Requirements (duplicate of Minimum Qualifications instructions about resume formatting). That's boilerplate/instructions; we can drop as it's application instruction? It says "To facilitate proper crediting, please ensure that your resume clearly describes your experience in the areas listed and indicates the beginning and ending month and year for each job held." That's application instruction; we should drop. Then REFERENCE/BACKGROUND CHECKS – Direct Care and Treatment will conduct reference checks to verify job-related credentials and criminal background check prior to appointment. That's substantive? It's about hiring process; maybe we can keep as part of Requirements? But it's more like process. The instruction says remove application instructions; reference/background checks maybe not application instruction but still part of hiring process. Might keep as a note under Requirements? However we need to avoid boilerplate. It's not boilerplate EEO; it's specific to this agency. Might keep as a short paragraph under Requirements. Then "How To Apply" etc - drop. Then Contact info etc - drop. Then "To receive consideration as a Connect 700 Program applicant..." - that's specific to Connect 700 program; maybe keep as part of Benefits? Actually it's about how to apply for Connect 700; it's application instruction; drop. Then "If you are an individual with a disability and need an ADA accommodation for an interview..." - drop (application instruction). Then "CERTAIN DISABLED VETERANS: ..." - that's specific policy; maybe keep as part of Requirements? It's about veteran preference; could be included under Requirements or a separate section? There's no specific heading for Veterans; we could include under Requirements as a note. Then "About Direct Care And Treatment" description: DCT operates a highly specialized behavioral health care system... That's substantive; could be part of About the role or a separate section? We have About the role heading; we can put that description there. Then "What do Minnesota's State employees have in common? ..." That's generic boilerplate about state employees; maybe drop as it's generic fluff. Then Benefits section: lots of benefits list. We need to keep Benefits heading and list. Then "Support To Help You Reach Your Career Goals" etc - that's also benefits/resources; could be part of Benefits or separate? We'll keep under Benefits. Then "Resources that provide support and promote physical, emotional, social, and financial well-being" etc - also benefits. Then "EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYERS" etc - that's EEO boilerplate; drop. Then "Applicants With Disabilities" etc - drop. Thus final HTML: sections:

maybe combine communication, basic math/computer, etc? But we already have those in Requirements. Could create Skills section for things like "Clear communication skills", "Basic math and computer skills", "Valid Driver's License". However we already have them in Requirements; better to keep Requirements only and not duplicate. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we combine Requirements and Preferred Qualifications into one Requirements section? But we have headings list; we can include both if they have content. We'll keep both.Benefits

We need to avoid repeating info. Also include location? Could be part of About the role? Not required but could be included as metadata in a short p. The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a shortor drop it. So we can include a short paragraph with location, job class, agency, etc. But we already have About the role; we could add a short p after heading with location etc. However we must not repeat job title as heading; we can include it in paragraph. Let's craft About the role paragraph: Include working title, agency, location, job class, maybe brief description of DCT. We need to preserve all substantive information; we must not lose location, job class, agency, etc. So we will include them in About the role paragraph. Let's draft:

Telework: Not eligible. Position type: Intermittent (on‑call).

We need to avoid duplicated sentences: we included DCT description and state commitment; that's fine. Now Responsibilities: extract bullet points from the paragraph: "Assisting in assessing individual's needs by performing direct care duties", "Developing and implementing residential and habilitation support plans with goals and methods.", "Evaluating and documenting outcomes, maintaining or modifying the plans and performing related work as required.", "Respond therapeutically using de‑escalation strategies and positive behavior supports to individuals with challenging
