Food Service Worker / Part-Time, Day Shift
for each section heading.
We must use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We must not invent or summarize away detail. Preserve all substantive information.
Thus we need to include all details from posting that are substantive, but we can combine similar info.
Let's extract:
About the role: Could be the introductory paragraph: "The work you'll do is more than just a job. At the State of Minnesota, employees play a critical role in developing policies, providing essential services, and working to improve the well-being and quality of life for all Minnesotans. The State of Minnesota is committed to equity and inclusion, and invests in employees by providing benefits, support resources, and training and development opportunities. It pays to consider a rewarding career with the Minnesota Veterans Home (MVH) in Bemidji! You may be eligible for a new hire bonus of $2,500! Earn a competitive wage and have a retirement plan, paid time off, and more!" That's about role and benefits. But we have separate Benefits section later. Might combine some.
But we need to avoid duplication. We'll keep About the role as a brief description of the job's purpose: maybe the first two sentences about role and state commitment. The new hire bonus and benefits could go to Benefits.
Responsibilities: list of duties: "perform routine food service tasks including food preparation, short order cooking, serving meals to residents, dishwashing and cleaning the food service areas while following established food service policies and procedures." Also maybe "perform simple cooking on a large scale", "plan and prepare small meals on a household scale", "perform cleaning and food service tasks", "read diet cards and follow instructions". Those are from Minimum Qualifications ability list. Actually those are abilities, but could be responsibilities. We'll include them.
Requirements: Minimum Qualifications: Knowledge of: Materials and methods used in preparing food; Care and use of cooking utensils and equipment; Food values and nutrition. Ability to: Perform simple cooking on a large scale; Plan and prepare small meals on a household scale; Perform cleaning and food service tasks; Read diet cards and follow instructions.
Preferred Qualifications: Food service-related experience, specifically with prepping, plating, and serving food; Knowledge of basic sanitation standards; ServSafe Food Certificate; Knowledge of International Dysphagia Diet Standardization Initiative (IDDSI).
Additional Requirements: A Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) background check may be conducted on the top finalist(s) for the position. When conducted, a finalist must pass the DHS background check. A Tuberculosis (Mantoux) screening (or chest x-ray) is required prior to employment. Employment reference checks will be conducted on finalists. This may include a review of documentation related to job performance and contact with the applicant's former employer(s).
Skills: maybe combine knowledge and abilities? But we already have Requirements and Qualifications sections. Could treat Skills as separate list of abilities? But we might not need Skills if we already have Requirements and Qualifications. However instructions: Use sections only when posting has real specific content. We have content for each: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (minimum qualifications), Qualifications (preferred), Skills (maybe knowledge/abilities?), Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We could map:
- About the role: introductory paragraph about purpose and state commitment (excluding bonus).
- Responsibilities: duties list.
- Requirements: minimum qualifications (knowledge and ability).
- Qualifications: preferred qualifications.
- Skills: maybe the specific skills like "food preparation, short order cooking, serving meals, dishwashing, cleaning, following policies". But that overlaps responsibilities. Could instead list "knowledge of materials and methods, care and use of utensils, food values, ability to perform simple cooking, plan meals, cleaning tasks, read diet cards". That's similar to requirements. Might be redundant. Perhaps we can omit Skills section if not needed. But we need to decide.
Better to follow typical structure: About the role (overview), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements (minimum qualifications), Qualifications (preferred), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Skills could be omitted if not distinct.
But the instruction says: Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It gives examples but not mandatory to include all. It says: IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. So we can omit Skills if no distinct content.
Thus we will include: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
Now we need to extract Benefits: The posting has a Benefits section later: "Benefits As an employee, you'll have access to one of the most affordable health insurance plans in Minnesota, along with other benefits to help you and your family be well. Your benefits may include: Paid vacation and sick leave 12 paid holidays each year Low-cost medical, dental, vision, and prescription drug plans Fertility care, including IVF Diabetes care Dental and orthodontic care for adults and children 6 weeks paid leave for parents of newborn or newly adopted children Pension plan that provides income when you retire (after working at least three years) Employer paid life insurance to provide support for your family in the event of death Short-term and long-term disability insurance that can provide income if you are unable to work due to illness or injury Tax-free expense accounts for health, dental, and dependent care Resources that provide support and promote physical, emotional, social, and financial well-being Support to help you reach your career goals: Training, classes, and professional development Federal Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program (Some positions may qualify for the Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program. For more information, visit the Federal Student Aid website at studentaid.gov) Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for work/life support: A voluntary confidential program that helps employees and their families with life challenges that may impact overall health, personal well-being, or job performance Common sources of stress can be addressed through the EAP: mental health, relationship challenges (personal and work), grief and loss, finances, and legal issues Daily Living/Convenience Services: Chore services, home repair, trip planning, child/elder care Programs, resources and benefits eligibility varies based on type of employment, agency, funding availability, union/collective bargaining agreement, location, and length of service with the State of Minnesota."
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to list each benefit as list items. Some are phrases like "Paid vacation and sick leave", "12 paid holidays each year", etc. We'll break them into list items.
Also note: "This position is not initially eligible for health and dental insurance benefits." That's a limitation; we should include that in Benefits section maybe as a note.
Also new hire bonus of $2,500 could be included in Benefits or Pay. Probably Benefits.
Pay: Salary Range: $20.87 - $25.88 / hourly.
Schedule: Work Shift/Work Hours: Day Shift / 6:00 a.m. - 2:30 p.m. Days of Work: Varies, including weekend rotation. Full/Part Time: Part-Time. The work schedule will include at least 32 hours per 2-week pay period and may include additional work hours, based on business needs. Travel Required: No (maybe not needed). Telework Eligible: No.
We'll include schedule details.
Now we need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like EEO, etc.
Now produce HTML fragment.
Structure:
About the role
... (the introductory paragraph about role and state commitment, maybe excluding bonus). We'll include: "The work you'll do is more than just a job. At the State of Minnesota, employees play a critical role in developing policies, providing essential services, and working to improve the well-being and quality of life for all Minnesotans. The State of Minnesota is committed to equity and inclusion, and invests in employees by providing benefits, support resources, and training and development opportunities. It pays to consider a rewarding career with the Minnesota Veterans Home (MVH) in Bemidji!" Then maybe separate bonus? Could include bonus in Benefits.
