Estimator II

McGough · Raleigh, NC · 3 wk ago
Full-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections only for sections with real content. The posting includes: Description (intro), then ESTIMATOR II heading (job title). We should not repeat job title as heading. We need sections: About the role? The description includes company intro. Could treat as "About the role" maybe. But we need to follow headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include only those sections that have real specific content. Let's parse content: - About the role: The description paragraph about McGough and role overview. Could be considered About the role. We'll include that. - Responsibilities: There's a big block "Responsibilities And Tasks" with many bullet-like sentences. We'll extract those as list items. - Requirements: There's "Qualifications Required" and "Preferred". Those are qualifications. Could be Requirements section. We'll include required qualifications. - Qualifications: Might be separate from Requirements? Usually qualifications are similar. But we can combine? The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have both Requirements and Qualifications if content distinct. The posting has "Qualifications Required" and "Preferred". Also "Skills" separate. So we can put required qualifications under Requirements, preferred under Qualifications? Or we could put all under Qualifications. But we need to follow instruction: include a section only when posting has real specific content for it. We have content for Requirements (required bachelor's degree, 5 years experience, etc.) and also Qualifications (preferred experience, professional designations, ability to navigate REVIT/AutoCAD). So we can have both. - Skills: There's a "Skills" block with many bullet-like statements. So include Skills. - Benefits, Pay, Schedule: The posting mentions "Office And Travel Occasional travel to jobsites is required, an average of 10% travel time is anticipated.Hybrid office attendance." That's about schedule/travel but not explicit benefits/pay/schedule. No explicit pay, benefits, schedule details besides travel/hybrid. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It does mention travel and hybrid office attendance, which could be considered schedule? It says "Office And Travel Occasional travel to jobsites is required, an average of 10% travel time is anticipated.Hybrid office attendance." That's about work arrangement/travel. Could be considered Schedule? But schedule usually refers to work hours/shift. Not clearly stated. Safer to not include Schedule, Benefits, Pay sections because no explicit content. Thus we will output sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to use

for each section heading. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate etc. We need to extract content precisely. Let's parse sections: About the role: The introductory paragraph before ESTIMATOR II: "McGough is a respected partner that brings six generations of experience to high profile, unique and complex construction projects. We take great pride in our people and their extraordinary expertise in planning, development, construction and facility management. McGough employee tenure reflects the commitment and pride we share in our work. Ask anyone who knows us - the caliber of our people sets us apart." That's about the company. Could be About the role. We'll put that as

    . Responsibilities: The block after "Responsibilities And Tasks". It includes many sentences. We'll turn each sentence into

  • . Need to ensure we capture all. Let's copy the responsibilities text: "MEP Cost Estimates Utilize Estimating Tools to develop a comprehensive MEP cost estimate. Perform take-off under direction of Senior Estimator/Director of Estimating/Director of Operations with existing conditions/temp provisions, substructure—single sided forms, deep foundations, structure concrete, system connections, masonry evaluation of labor riskDevelop and manage MEP bid instructions, bid cards and sub-contractor scope documents to avoid gaps in Sub-Contractor scopesEstimate Templates by modifying estimate template for project requirements and understand the value analysis log and generate items.Pricing: understand cost history evaluation, general understanding of unit prices, self-perform pricing, general conditions including weather and hoisting, estimate development, CD/DD estimates, SD/DD estimates, conceptual estimates.

The text is dense without punctuation. We'll need to infer sentences by capital letters and typical phrasing. Could break at each capital letter start after a period? But there are missing periods. We'll try to split by clear phrases. Better approach: Keep as one paragraph? But instruction: Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should make list items. We can split by major sections indicated by capitalized headings within responsibilities: "MEP Cost Estimates", "Communication with Project Team", "Pursuit and Business Development", "McGough Self-Performed Work", "Scheduling", "Other Duties As Assigned". We'll make each heading as a list item maybe with sub-items? But we can't nest lists? Could just make each heading as a list item and then the following sentences as sub-items? Might be too complex. Simplify: We'll create a
        with each sentence as
      • . We'll need to insert periods where missing. But we must not invent content. Adding periods is okay as punctuation not content. We'll just split by clear delimiters: after each phrase that ends with a lowercase letter then next capital letter indicates new sentence. We'll do our best. Let's manually split: 1. MEP Cost Estimates Utilize Estimating Tools to develop a comprehensive MEP cost estimate. 2. Perform take-off under direction of Senior Estimator/Director of Estimating/Director of Operations with existing conditions/temp provisions, substructure—single sided forms, deep foundations, structure concrete, system connections, masonry evaluation of labor risk 3.
