Actually "About MNsure" is about agency; could be part of "About the role"? Might be considered boilerplate? It's substantive about agency but not about role. The instruction says we should include sections only when posting has real specific content for it. Could include a short paragraph about MNsure under maybe "About the role" or separate? The headings list includes "About the role". We could put the description of MNsure under "About the role". However the instruction says do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we can include a short paragraph with metadata like location, telework, schedule, etc. Possibly under a heading like "About the role" we can include description of role and agency. We need sections: maybe "Responsibilities", "Minimum Qualifications", "Preferred Qualifications", "Benefits", "Pay", "Schedule". Also maybe "Telework" could be part of Schedule? But schedule is separate: Work Hours, Days of Work, etc. We have schedule info: Work Hours: 8:00am - 4:30pm, Days of Work: Monday - Friday, Travel Required: No. Also telework details. So we can put schedule info under a
Schedule
with- items.
Pay: Salary Range given. So we can have
Pay
withmaybe. Benefits: there is a Benefits section with list of benefits. So we include that. Responsibilities: the bullet list of duties. Requirements: maybe combine Minimum Qualifications and Additional Requirements? The instruction says use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can have "Requirements" for minimum qualifications, "Preferred Qualifications" maybe as separate heading? The list includes Qualifications as a heading; we could have "Qualifications" for minimum, and maybe "Preferred Qualifications" as a subheading? But we only allowed headings from list; we could still use
Qualifications
for minimum, and maybe anotherPreferred Qualifications
though not in list but could be okay? The instruction says usefor section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It gives examples but not exhaustive; we can use other headings if needed? It says "use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." Likely they expect only those headings. But we could still include "Preferred Qualifications" under Qualifications as part of same section? Might be better to have "Qualifications" covering both minimum and preferred, with sub-bullets labeled. However we need to preserve all substantive information; we can include both minimum and preferred under Qualifications with headings inside? But we cannot add extra headings beyond
. Could use
with bold? But better to keep as
Qualifications
and then within that have two- lists: one for Minimum Qualifications, one for Preferred Qualifications, each preceded by a
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits.
For Qualifications, we have two lists; we can wrap each in
- .
We'll need to include the Additional Requirements about resume formatting; that is a requirement but not a qualification; could be placed under Requirements heading? But we don't have Requirements heading; we could put under Qualifications as a note.
But the instruction says use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we could have a
- Three (3) years of administrative experience performing executive-level or advanced administrative support, including:
- Executive support — managing complex calendars, meetings, logistics, and confidential information.
- Professional communication — drafting, editing, and preparing clear, accurate correspondence and meeting minutes.
Requirements
for Additional Requirements (resume formatting) and maybe also include Minimum Qualifications there? However Minimum Qualifications are definitely qualifications. Might be better to have Requirements for minimum qualifications and Qualifications for preferred? But ambiguous. Given the examples, they likely expect Requirements for mandatory qualifications, Qualifications for preferred or skills. But we can decide. Let's allocate: -Requirements
: Minimum Qualifications (3 years experience, bullet list). -Qualifications
: Preferred Qualifications (2 years experience, bullet list) plus Additional Requirements (resume formatting) maybe as a note. -Skills
: maybe we could list specific skills like spreadsheet, word processing, etc. But those are already in Minimum Qualifications. Could combine. But to avoid thin sections, maybe we just have Requirements (minimum) and Qualifications (preferred + additional). Skills could be omitted. But we need to include all substantive info; we can include skills within Qualifications. Let's do:Requirements
Minimum qualifications:
describing. Similarly, Skills could be separate but we have skills listed in qualifications (spreadsheet, word processing). Could combine. We also have "About the role" could include description of role and agency. We need to strip boilerplate: EEO, equal opportunity, scam warning, application instructions, contact info, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. Let's craft HTML. Structure:
About the role
Executive Assistant providing high-level administrative, scheduling, communication, and organizational support to the MNsure Executive Team. Serves as a key liaison between MNsure leadership and internal/external partners, ensuring smooth operations, timely communication, and effective coordination across the agency. Also supports MNsure’s Board of Directors by preparing materials, attending meetings, and taking accurate minutes. MNsure is Minnesota's official health insurance marketplace created through the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.
Maybe include location, telework, etc in About the role? Could but we have Schedule section. Better to put location/telework in About the role? But schedule section will cover work hours and days; telework details could be in Schedule as well. Let's decide: About the role: description of role and agency. Responsibilities: bullet list of duties. Qualifications: include Minimum and Preferred. Benefits: list. Pay: salary range. Schedule: work hours, days, travel, telework details. We need to ensure we don't include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. Now craft. We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits.
For Qualifications, we have two lists; we can wrap each in
