Full-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We need to parse the job posting. Overview: "The Department of Motor Vehicles seeks a highly organized professional with excellent attention to detail to join our Accounts Receivable Team as a Financial Specialist III. The ideal candidate will possess the ability to multi-task and to contribute and communicate effectively in a team environment, as well as the ability to work independently and accurately verifying daily revenue transactions against the bank statement. Primary duties consist of reconciling and posting transactions from various sources, scanning checks to be posted in the bank account and customer refund approvals. This position will need to remain current on all State policies and procedures and will be crossed trained to perform all responsibilities of the Accounts Receivable Unit. This position will have contact with multiple agencies, employees, and customers. Work experience with accounts receivables, VISION (the State's Oracle-based Accounting System) and strong Excel skills are preferred, but are willing to train the right candidate. This position is required to be in the office two days a week, to fulfill hands-on tasks. The office is located at the DMV at 120 State St. in Montpelier. Although the full salary range for this position is provided, new hires are typically made at the salary range minimum." Who May Apply: includes Job Requisition #55385, contact email, etc. We need to drop application instructions, boilerplate, EEO, etc. Also drop "Who May Apply" details like contact email, application instructions, fingerprinting, etc. Also drop "Environmental Factors". Also drop "Equal Opportunity Employer". Also drop "Total Compensation" maybe we can keep Benefits section. We need to preserve substantive info: overview description, duties, requirements (minimum qualifications), special requirements (VISION), benefits (total compensation description), schedule (office two days a week), pay (salary range mentioned but not specific numbers; they say "Although the full salary range for this position is provided, new hires are typically made at the salary range minimum." No actual numbers given, so we should not create Pay section because no specific salary info. The rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. For Schedule, they state "This position is required to be in the office two days a week, to fulfill hands-on tasks." That's specific schedule info, so we can include Schedule section. For Benefits, they have a paragraph describing total compensation package with list of benefits. That's substantive, so include Benefits section. For Pay, they don't give actual numbers, just mention salary range but not provided. So we should NOT include Pay section. Now sections: - About the role: could be overview paragraph describing role. Use

About the role

then

with overview text. - Responsibilities: list of duties: reconciling and posting transactions from various sources, scanning checks to be posted in the bank account, customer refund approvals, remain current on State policies and procedures, cross-trained to perform all responsibilities of the Accounts Receivable Unit, contact with multiple agencies, employees, customers. Also verifying daily revenue transactions against bank statement (mentioned earlier). We'll put as

  • ...
. - Requirements: maybe Minimum Qualifications (the list of OR conditions). That's a set of qualifications. Could be under Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction says use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which to use. We have minimum qualifications (education/experience). Could be under Requirements. Also Special Requirements (VISION experience maybe required). Could be under Skills? Actually VISION is a system experience, could be under Skills. But we have also "Work experience with accounts receivables, VISION ... and strong Excel skills are preferred, but are willing to train the right candidate." That's skills. So we can have Skills section for accounts receivable, VISION, Excel. We also have "Minimum Qualifications" which is a set of OR conditions. That's more like Requirements. So we can put Requirements heading with that list. We also have "Special Requirements For some positions experience working with the VISION system ... may be required." That's similar to skills but we already covered VISION as preferred. Might be redundant. We'll keep Skills section covering VISION, Excel, accounts receivable. We also have schedule: office two days a week. Benefits: list of benefits. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, application instructions, contact email, fingerprinting, etc. We must preserve all substantive info. Let's extract substantive info: Overview paragraph: "The Department of Motor Vehicles seeks a highly organized professional with excellent attention to detail to join our Accounts Receivable Team as a Financial Specialist III. The ideal candidate will possess the ability to multi-task and to contribute and communicate effectively in a team environment, as well as the ability to work independently and accurately verifying daily revenue transactions against the bank statement." We could also include "Primary duties consist of reconciling and posting transactions from various sources, scanning checks to be posted in the bank account and customer refund approvals. This position will need to remain current on all State policies and procedures and will be crossed trained to perform all responsibilities of the Accounts Receivable Unit. This position will have contact with multiple agencies, employees, and customers." That's more duties. We also have "Work experience with accounts receivables, VISION (the State's Oracle-based Accounting System) and strong Excel skills are preferred, but are willing to train the right candidate." Schedule: "This position is required to be in the office two days a week, to fulfill hands-on tasks. The office is located at the DMV at 120 State St. in Montpelier." Pay: "Although the full salary range for this position is provided, new hires are typically made at the salary range minimum." No numbers, so we skip Pay. Benefits: The total compensation paragraph: "As a State employee you are offered a great career opportunity, but it's more than a paycheck. The State's total compensation package features an outstanding set of employee benefits that are worth about 30% of your total compensation, including: 80% State paid medical premium and a dental plan at no cost for employees and their families Work/Life balance: 12 paid holidays each year and a generous leave plan State Paid Family and Medical Leave Insurance (FMLI) Two ways to save for your retirement: A State defined benefit pension plan and a deferred compensation 457(b) plan Tuition Reimbursement Flexible spending healthcare and childcare reimbursement accounts Low cost group life insurance Incentive-based Wellness Program Qualified Employer for Public Service Student Loan Forgiveness Program Want the specifics? Explore the Benefits of State Employment on our website." We need to keep that as Benefits section. Minimum Qualifications: list of OR conditions. Let's copy exactly: "Minimum Qualifications Two years or more of full-time college coursework in accounting, business administration, office administration or a related field AND one (1) year or more of experience in accounting, bookkeeping or technical level fiscal experience that involved the calculation, recording and maintenance of accounting or financial records. OR Associate's degree in accounting, business administration, office administration or a related field AND one (1) year or more of experience in accounting, bookkeeping or technical level fiscal experience that involved the calculation, recording and maintenance of accounting or financial records. OR Completion of a vocational/technical training program in business, office administration, financial support or related area AND two (2) years or more of experience in accounting, bookkeeping or technical level fiscal experience that involved the calculation, recording and maintenance of accounting or financial records. OR High School diploma or equivalent AND three (3) years or more of experience in accounting, bookkeeping or technical level fiscal experience that involved the calculation, recording and maintenance of accounting or financial records. OR One (1) year or more as a Financial Specialist II with the State of Vermont." We should format as
  • each OR condition as a list item? Could be each condition as separate bullet. We'll produce:

    Requirements

    • Two years or more of full-time college coursework in accounting, business administration, office administration or a related field AND one (1) year or more of experience in accounting, bookkeeping or technical level fiscal experience that involved the calculation, recording and maintenance of accounting or financial records.
    • Associate's degree in accounting, business administration, office administration or a related field AND one (1) year or more of experience in accounting, bookkeeping or technical level fiscal experience that involved the calculation, recording and maintenance of accounting or financial records.

    • One (1) year or more as a Financial Specialist II with the State of Vermont.
    Now Skills: "Work experience with accounts receivables, VISION (the State's Oracle-based Accounting System) and strong Excel skills are preferred, but are willing to train the right candidate." We can also include "ability to multi-task, contribute and communicate effectively in a team environment, work independently and accurately verifying daily revenue transactions against the bank statement." That's more like abilities but could be under Skills as well. However we already have overview covering that. We'll keep Skills focusing on technical skills: accounts receivable, VISION, Excel. We'll produce:

    Skills

    • Experience with accounts receivable
    • Experience with VISION (State's Oracle-based Accounting System)
    • Strong Excel skills
    But we might also include "ability to multi-task, contribute and communicate effectively in a team environment, work independently and accurately verifying daily revenue transactions against the bank statement." Could be under Skills as well, but we can keep them in About the role or Responsibilities. We'll keep them in About the role. Now Responsibilities: we need to list duties. From overview: "Primary duties consist of reconciling and posting transactions from various sources, scanning checks to be posted in the bank account and customer refund approvals. This position will need to remain current on all State policies and procedures and will be crossed trained to perform all responsibilities of the Accounts Receivable Unit. This position will have contact with multiple agencies, employees, and customers." Also earlier: "ability to work independently and accurately verifying daily revenue transactions against the bank statement." We'll create list: - Reconciling and posting transactions from various sources - Scanning checks to be posted in the bank account - Customer refund approvals - Remaining current on all State policies and procedures - Cross-trained to perform all responsibilities of the Accounts Receivable Unit - Contact with multiple agencies, employees, and customers - Verifying daily revenue transactions against the bank statement Now About the role: we can combine overview paragraph plus maybe location? Location could be under Schedule? Actually location is part of schedule/location. We could include location in About the role or Schedule. Since schedule section is about days in office, we could add location there. But we can also put location in About the role. However we should not duplicate. Let's put location in Schedule section along with two days a week. Schedule section: "This position is required to be in the office two days a week, to fulfill hands-on tasks. The office is located at the DMV at 120 State St. in Montpelier." We'll put that as

    under Schedule. Now Benefits section: we need to format as

    • for list of benefits. The paragraph includes colon then list separated by line breaks. We'll extract each benefit: - 80% State paid medical premium and a dental plan at no
