We need to remove boilerplate: EEO statements, legal, cookie/navigation, application instructions, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. Also remove "I have read and received a copy..." etc. Also remove "Other Duties – This job description is not designed..." maybe considered boilerplate? It's part of job description but maybe not essential? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The "Other Duties" is not exactly boilerplate but could be considered generic. However it's part of job description; but we can keep if it's substantive? It says "This job description is not designed to cover or contain a comprehensive listing..." That's generic filler. Likely we should drop it as it's not specific. Also the AAP/EEO statement is boilerplate; drop.
We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. Let's identify sections:
- About the role / Summary/Objective: we have Summary/Objective - Perform repair and maintenance... So we can have About the role
with a paragraph.
- Responsibilities: Essential Functions list many duties. So we can have Responsibilities
with - items.
- Requirements/Qualifications: Qualifications - High School Diploma or equivalency preferred. Two years of experience preferred in the following areas: small appliance repair, HVAC, residential wiring, plumbing, carpentry. Valid New York State Driver’s License with acceptable driving history to be able to drive agency vehicles. Work Authorization/Security Clearance – Authorized to work in the United States. Also maybe "Maintain a valid and acceptable NYS Driver’s License." That's repeated. We'll combine.
We could have
Qualifications
with .
- Skills: Competencies – Analytical Reasoning Attention to Detail Problem Solving Teamwork Technical Competence Good Customer Service. Also maybe "Supervisory Responsibility – N/A" we can ignore as N/A. So we can have Skills
with list.
- Benefits: Not mentioned. No specific benefits. So we should not create Benefits section.
- Pay: Not mentioned. So no Pay section.
- Schedule: Position Type/Expected Hours of Work – 40 hours/week; flexible to the needs of the Agency. Schedule to be determined by Supervisor. Also later: Incumbent will be required to respond to emergencies after regular working hours and on weekends, must be willing to work an irregular schedule, which may include weekends, holidays, evenings, and/or varying shifts. So we have schedule info. We can create Schedule
with paragraph.
- Travel: Travel - Travel to and from all properties owned or operated by the agency with Maintenance vehicle provided. Respond to On-call call outs when on duty. Could be part of Responsibilities or a separate section? Not in allowed headings list but we could put under Responsibilities. Since only allowed headings are those listed, we should not create extra headings. So incorporate travel into Responsibilities.
- Work Environment: Not in allowed headings; could be part of Responsibilities or maybe we could create a section? Not allowed. So we incorporate into Responsibilities as a bullet.
- Physical Demands: also incorporate into Responsibilities.
Thus we will produce sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Schedule.
Check if any content for Benefits, Pay: none, so omit.
Now we need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. We must keep details like "40 hours/week; flexible to the needs of the Agency. Schedule to be determined by Supervisor." Also "Incumbent will be required to respond to emergencies after regular working hours and on weekends, must be willing to work an irregular schedule, which may include weekends, holidays, evenings, and/or varying shifts." Also "Travel to and from all properties owned or operated by the agency with Maintenance vehicle provided. Respond to On-call call outs when on duty." Also "Work is performed in both an indoor and outdoor environment. Exposure to dangerous machinery, extreme weather conditions, excessive noise, and wildlife. May be required to climb ladders, work in trenches and in confined spaces." Also physical demands details.
We need to ensure we don't drop any of those. We'll embed them in Responsibilities bullets.
Now we need to format: Use for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
Thus for each section we can have heading then either a paragraph or list.
We must not repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it). So we don't add a heading for job title.
We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — none present.
Now produce HTML fragment.
Let's craft content.
