Shifts Available: Day, rotating (day/evening combination) OR overnight. We also offer shift differential for hours between 6:00 pm and 6:00 am!"

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: bullet list (but not bullet in text). 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." Then 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).

Additional Requirements: repeats the "To facilitate proper crediting..." line again, then "REFERENCE/BACKGROUND CHECKS – Direct Care and Treatment will conduct reference checks to verify job-related credentials and criminal background check prior to appointment." Then "How To Apply" etc (application instructions) - we must remove. Then "Contact" etc - remove. Then "CERTAIN DISABLED VETERANS:" etc - maybe keep? It's about veteran preference; it's substantive? Might be considered EEO/boilerplate? It's specific legislation; but it's about hiring preference. Might be considered EEO-related; but it's not exactly boilerplate; it's a specific program. However instructions say remove EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. This is about disabled veterans preference; could be considered EEO-related. Safer to remove? The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate". This is EEO-related. So remove. Then "About Direct Care And Treatment" description: we can keep as "About the role" maybe? Actually "About Direct Care And Treatment" is agency description. Could be placed under "About the role" or a separate section like "About the agency". The instruction says use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can use About the role for agency description and role overview. Then "Benefits" section: there is a big list of benefits. So we should include Benefits heading with list. Pay: we have Salary Range: $24.54 - $31.43 / hourly. Also shift differential for hours between 6pm-6am. So we can include Pay section. Schedule: we have Work Shift/Work Hours, Days of Work, Travel Required (50%). So schedule section. Responsibilities: we have the paragraph describing duties. Requirements: maybe combine Minimum Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications? The instruction says use headings for Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could have Requirements (minimum qualifications) and Qualifications (preferred). Or we could combine. But we need to follow instruction: use those headings if content exists. We have content for Requirements (minimum qualifications) and Qualifications (preferred). Also Skills maybe we can extract from qualifications: clear communication skills, basic math and computer skills, etc. Could make Skills section. But we must not create sections with filler/placeholder text. All content must be substantive. Let's plan sections: -

About the role

: include agency description and role overview (the paragraphs about work you'll do, supporting individuals, etc). Also maybe mention location, intermittent, etc? But location could go in Schedule? We'll keep location maybe in About the role? Could also be in Schedule. But we can include location in About the role as part of description. -

Responsibilities

: bullet list of duties (assessing needs, developing plans, evaluating outcomes, responding therapeutically, etc). Also mention supporting individuals in short- and long-term housing program, etc. -

Requirements

: minimum qualifications list. -

Qualifications

: preferred qualifications list. -

Skills

: maybe combine clear communication skills, basic math and computer skills, etc. But those are already in Requirements. Could omit Skills to avoid duplication. However instruction says we can use Skills heading if we have content. We could extract skills like "Clear communication skills", "Basic math and computer skills", "Valid Driver's License", "Ability to perform physical/essential requirements". But those are already in Requirements. Might be redundant but okay. Safer to omit Skills section to avoid thin sections. -

Benefits

: list of benefits. -

Pay

: salary range and shift differential. -

Schedule

: work shift/hours, days of work, travel required (50%), shift details, etc. We must not include duplicated lines. Ensure we preserve all substantive info. Let's extract specifics. About the role: - 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. (This is generic but maybe still substantive; but it's repeated later. Might be considered boilerplate? It's about state employment values. Could keep but it's somewhat generic. However it's part of posting. We'll keep. - Direct Care and Treatment (DCT) is unable to provide sponsorship for work visas.
