We need to output HTML fragment with headings for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections where there is real specific content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate, navigation, EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info.
We need to parse the posting.
Key sections:
- About the role: description of role, expectations. The posting includes: "What you can expect as a Lead Aircraft Maintenance Technician at West Star: As a Lead your main focus will be centered on leading a team of technicians to produce timely results that are of the highest quality and accuracy..." etc. Also "You Will Be ESSENTIAL To Many FUNCTIONS Including ..." That's responsibilities.
We need to separate sections: About the role (maybe overview), Responsibilities (list of duties), Requirements (education, experience), Qualifications (maybe licenses), Skills (initiative, responsibility, etc.), Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to decide what content belongs where.
Let's extract:
Overview/About the role: "We are committed to providing our employees with personal and professional growth opportunities while fostering a culture of respect and well-being with a small company feel. When you join our team we don’t think you should have to wait for your benefits to kick in. That’s why when you start, they start with you! This includes medical, dental, 401K match, time off accruals, weekly pay days and much more. We don’t want you to live to work, we want you to work and live." That's more about benefits/company culture. Could be About the role? Might be better as About the role: description of role and company.
But we also have "What you can expect as a Lead Aircraft Maintenance Technician at West Star: As a Lead your main focus will be centered on leading a team of technicians to produce timely results that are of the highest quality and accuracy. The most successful individuals will be highly analytical, inquiring and have a critical mind. This job requires imagination and strong problem solving skills, with a strong technical orientation. Getting the job done and getting it done right are the two, equal, drivers for this job. Effectively utilizing manpower and directing project flow will be your primary function."
That seems like About the role.
Then responsibilities: list under "You Will Be ESSENTIAL To Many FUNCTIONS Including ..." and bullet-like sentences.
Also "Perform general mechanical functions on aircraft and related systems..." etc.
Also "Work with customer in project management, pricing and customer support roles." etc.
Also "Any other job-related duties as assigned by supervisor or management."
Thus responsibilities list.
Requirements: Education: "Your Education A High school diploma or equivalent and Airframe and Powerplant License are required. A valid driver’s license approved for airline travel and/or a valid passport is ideal, but not mandatory. Aircraft specific factory training is preferred."
Experience: "Your Experience 8+ years in aviation maintenance preferred 4+ years in program specific airframes This position requires minimal supervision and will lead small groups in daily tasks These techs are subject matter experts and demonstrate a wide and comprehensive knowledge of the job"
Also maybe "Your Initiative", "Your Sense Of Responsibility" could be Skills or Requirements.
Skills: "We’re looking for a team player who is self-motivated and able to perform in a fast paced environment where working under specific deadlines and time constraints will be common." "Attend work every day as scheduled to include overtime and weekend assignments. Notify supervisor in advance of shift starting if unable to work. Must have reliable transportation to get to work each and every day. Must perform all work in accordance with Federal Aviation Administration guidelines. Follow all company and safety rules during performance of duties. Maintain customer oriented work habits. Direct the work and flow of multiple projects. Supervision of team members in daily operations and duties. Completion of work orders, FAA paperwork."
Also "Physical Requirements", "Mental Requirements", "Supervision", "Working Conditions", "Equipment Used". Those could be under Requirements or Qualifications.
But we need to follow headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to decide what goes where.
Probably:
- About the role: overview paragraph(s) describing role and company culture.
- Responsibilities: list of duties (the bullet-like sentences under "You Will Be ESSENTIAL To Many FUNCTIONS Including ..." plus the later list of tasks like "Perform general mechanical functions..." etc.)
- Requirements: education and experience (high school diploma, A&P license, driver's license, 8+ years experience, 4+ years program specific airframes, etc.)
- Qualifications: maybe licenses, certifications, specific training (Airframe and Powerplant License required, aircraft specific factory training preferred). Could also include "Valid driver’s license approved for airline travel and/or a valid passport is ideal, but not mandatory."
- Skills: initiative, responsibility, teamwork, self-motivation, ability to work under deadlines, communication, etc. Also maybe "Physical Requirements" and "Mental Requirements" could be under Skills? But they are more like requirements. However we already have Requirements and Qualifications; maybe we put physical/mental under Requirements? But we need to avoid duplication.
Better: Use Requirements for education + experience; Qualifications for licenses/certifications; Skills for soft skills and abilities (team player, self-motivated, communication, problem solving, etc.). Physical and mental requirements could be under Requirements? But they'd be more like qualifications. However we have limited headings; we can put them under Requirements as well, but we need to avoid duplication.
Let's see the content: "Physical Requirements Lift at least 50 lbs. Routine walking, bending and squatting or sitting. Routing or repetitive physical motion with arms and hands. Basic personal computer operations. Mental Requirements Understanding and implementation of regulations and guidelines. Troubleshoot or evaluate system operation. Work with others in a professional manner. Coordinate projects. Team management skills. Supervision Will directly supervise multiple technicians. Will work under supervision of assigned Team Leader and Operations Manager. Work with other Team Leaders on multiple projects in a cooperative manner. Working Conditions The majority of work will be accomplished in a hangar environment which can include very hot or very cold temperatures Work outside during aircraft runs will occur. Varied positions in and around the aircraft. Equipment Used Personal hand tools supplied by the mechanic. Pneumatic, hydraulic and electrical equipment. Jacks, stands, lifts and other support devices. Tugs, power carts and other engine powered equipment. Personal computer and work order prints."
These are details about the job; could be placed under Requirements or Qualifications. Since we already have Requirements (education/experience) and Qualifications (licenses/training), maybe we put physical/mental under Requirements as well (makes sense). But we need to avoid making Requirements too long; but it's okay.
Skills: initiative, responsibility, team player, self-motivated, ability to work under deadlines, communication, problem solving, analytical, critical mind, imagination, strong problem solving skills, technical orientation, etc.
Benefits: The posting includes benefits info: "When you start, they start with you! This includes medical, dental, 401K match, time off accruals, weekly pay days and much more." Also later: "West Star Aviation’s Benefits Benefits Effective Day One for Eligible EmployeesMedical, Dental and Vision Coverage with Health Savings Account (HSA) and Flexible Spending Account (FSA) optionsLife Insurance, Disability Benefits & Supplemental Benefits401(k) Plan with Employee Contributions & Employer MatchPaid Company Holidays & Weekly Paid Time Off AccrualsFlexible Work Schedules include 5x8, 4x10 and 3x12Weekly Competitive & Industry Leading Pay means you are paid more oftenBonus Opportunity based on Company and Site PerformanceInternal Mobility & Career Advancement opportunities"
Also compensation: "Compensation & Benefit Information The following information is disclosed according to state specific requirements. If the position applied to is not in a state with these requirements, the following information may not apply. The hourly rate for this position generally ranges between $38-$48. Actual hourly rate will vary and may be above or below the range based on various factors including but not limited to location, experience and performance. Additional compensation in the form of a shift differential will be provided if the employee is assigned to an alternate shift. The range listed is just one component of the total compensation package. Other forms of compensation include a semi-annual discretionary bonus, 401(k) company match and employer contribution to a Health Savings Account (HSA)."
Thus Pay section: hourly rate $38-$48, shift differential, semi-annual discretionary bonus, 401k match, HSA contribution.
Schedule: The posting mentions "Weekly Competitive & Industry Leading Pay means you are paid more often" but not schedule. However benefits mention "Flexible Work Schedules include 5x8, 4x10 and 3x12". That's schedule info. Also "Weekly Paid Time Off Accruals". So schedule: flexible work schedules (5x8, 4x10, 3x12). Also maybe mention weekly pay days. But schedule heading should be about work schedule. We'll include flexible work schedules.
Now we need to output HTML with
