Fiscal Specialist 2 - C99067

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes Job Summary, then About Eastern Washington University, Tribal Land Acknowledgement (should be removed as boilerplate? It's not EEO but maybe considered boilerplate? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Tribal Land Acknowledgement is not EEO but maybe considered part of university description; but it's not required. However we need to preserve substantive information. The Tribal Land Acknowledgement is substantive about university values; but maybe we keep as part of About Eastern Washington University? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." We can combine About Eastern Washington University and Tribal Land Acknowledgement into one "About the organization" section? But headings allowed: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must use those headings only if content exists. We have Pay (salary range) and Schedule (work schedule). Benefits (benefits package). Responsibilities (duties). Requirements (required qualifications). Qualifications (preferred qualifications). Skills maybe from required qualifications (Advanced MS Excel and Word skills). Could put under Skills. About the role maybe from Job Summary. Let's map: - About the role: Job Summary paragraph. - Responsibilities: Proposed Job Duties & Responsibilities (the detailed breakdown). - Requirements: Required Qualifications. - Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications. - Skills: maybe Advanced MS Excel and Word skills (but that's already in Required Qualifications). Could still include Skills section with that. - Benefits: benefits package description. - Pay: salary range. - Schedule: work schedule Monday-Friday 8-5. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. We must not include boilerplate like Equal Opportunity Statement, Conditions Of Employment, etc. Remove those. We must preserve all substantive information: job summary, responsibilities, required qualifications, preferred qualifications, skills, benefits, pay, schedule, location? Location is given but not a heading; we can include location in a short paragraph maybe under About the role? Or we could add a short p with location and FLSA etc? The instruction: fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. So we can include location and FLSA etc in a short p after the heading? But we shouldn't create extra headings. We'll just include a

after the heading maybe containing location and FLSA etc. However we must not repeat job title. We'll include a short paragraph with location, FLSA status, work schedule type, term of appointment maybe. But we already have Schedule section for schedule details; we could put location and FLSA in a short p under About the role. Let's craft:

About the role

Location: Cheney. FLSA Status: Non-Exempt. Term of Appointment: 12 Months.

[Job Summary text]

Then Responsibilities:

Responsibilities

• ... each duty as separate li? The responsibilities are long with percentages. We could break into bullet points summarizing each duty but must preserve ALL substantive information; we cannot summarize away detail. We need to keep the detail. Could we keep the percentages and details inside each li? Yes we can include the full text as li items. That preserves detail. We need to not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the exact duty descriptions. The posting has percentages and multiple sentences. We'll put each percentage block as a li. Similarly for Requirements:

  Requirements

  • High school diploma or GED.
  • Two years of experience at a level equivalent to Fiscal Specialist 1 AND 15 quarter hours or 10 semester hours of college-level accounting or bookkeeping.
  • Equivalent education/experience will substitute for all minimum qualifications.
  • Advanced MS Excel and Word skills.
  • Demonstrated ability to apply a responsive and flexible approach that is supportive to the needs of, including universal access, of our students, faculty, staff and the public
  Qualifications (Preferred):

  Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree
  • Previous experience in Higher Education
  Skills: maybe we could put Advanced MS Excel and Word skills here, but it's already in Requirements. Could still include but might duplicate. Better to not duplicate. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we omit Skills section and keep Advanced MS Excel under Requirements. But we need to include Skills heading only if posting has real specific content for it. The posting does mention Advanced MS Excel and Word skills as a required qualification; that could be considered Skills. But we already have it under Requirements. To avoid duplication, we could move it to Skills and remove from Requirements? But Requirements should contain all required qualifications. Better to keep it under Requirements and not have Skills section. So we will not output Skills section. Benefits:

  Benefits

  In addition to salary, the university offers a comprehensive benefits package including health insurance, life and disability insurance and retirement. In addition, EWU offers generous vacation and sick leave accruals, 13 paid holidays per year and fringe benefits, such as tuition waiver for employees and eligible family members, discounted EWU sports tickets, full access to our campus workout facilities at a minimum fee and free transportation through STA buses.

  Pay:

  Pay

  Schedule:

  Schedule

  Work Schedule: Monday - Friday, 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.

  We also have Work Schedule Type Regular and Term Of Appointment 12 Months; we included term in About the role p. We must not include application instructions, special instructions, etc. We must not include boilerplate like Equal Opportunity Statement, Conditions Of Employment, etc. We must not include the Tribal Land Acknowledgement? It's not boilerplate but maybe considered part of About Eastern Washington University. However we already have About the role; we could add an About the organization section but not in allowed headings. The allowed headings list does not include About the organization. So we cannot add a heading not in list. So we must omit that info or incorporate into About the role? The About the role heading is for role description, not organization. But we could include a brief sentence about the university in About the role paragraph? Might be okay but could be considered stray. However the instruction: "Use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., implying those are examples but we should use those headings. It doesn't forbid other headings, but says use those for section headings. Likely we should stick to those. So we should not add a heading for About Eastern Washington University. We could incorporate a brief sentence about the university in About the role paragraph? Might be okay but could be considered adding unrelated info. However the instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information". The university description is substantive. If we omit it, we lose info. So we need to include it somewhere. Perhaps we can add a short paragraph after About the role without a heading, as minor metadata? But it's not minor; it's a description. Could we put it under About the role as part of the same section? The About the role section could include both role summary and organization overview. That would preserve info. So we can add a paragraph about the university after the job summary within the same About the role section. Thus About the role will contain: location/FLA/term p, job summary p, and a paragraph about Eastern Washington University. Let's craft that. Now ensure we don't include any boilerplate like "Equal Opportunity Statement", "Conditions Of Employment", etc. Check for duplicated lines: none. Now produce HTML fragment. Let's write:
