We need to include Benefits section only if posting has real specific content. It does have benefits list. So we include Benefits. Pay: Salary range with shift differential. So include Pay. Schedule: Work Shift/Work Hours: Evening Shift / 3:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m.; Days of Work: Varies, including weekends as assigned; The work schedule will include at least 16 hours per 2-week pay period and may include additional work hours based on business needs. So we can include Schedule. About the role: maybe a brief description: "As a Food Service Worker, you will 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 mention part-time evening shift, etc. Responsibilities: Could be the list of duties: food preparation, short order cooking, serving meals to residents, dishwashing, cleaning food service areas, following policies. Requirements: Minimum Qualifications (knowledge and ability). Could be separate. Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications. Skills: maybe combine? But we can include Skills if there is specific content like "Knowledge of basic sanitation standards; ServSafe Food Certificate; Knowledge of IDDSI". However those are under Preferred Qualifications. Could treat as Skills. We need to avoid duplication. Let's decide sections: - About the role: overview. - Responsibilities: list of duties. - Requirements: Minimum Qualifications (knowledge and ability). - Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications. - Skills: maybe not needed if covered; but we could include "Food service-related experience..." etc as Skills. But we already have Qualifications. Might be redundant. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could combine Preferred Qualifications into Qualifications, or have Skills separate if there is distinct skill list. Let's see: Preferred Qualifications includes experience, knowledge, certificate, IDDSI. Those are qualifications/skills. Could put them under Qualifications. Then we might not need Skills. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (Minimum Qualifications), Qualifications (Preferred), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. So headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to use

for each section heading. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting that are substantive, but we can condense into lists/prose while preserving meaning. Let's extract details: About the role: Could include: part-time evening shift Food Service Worker at Preston Veterans Home, Food & Nutrition Services; performing routine food service tasks; part-time, primarily evening shift; work schedule at least 16 hours per 2-week pay period, may include additional hours based on business needs; not initially eligible for employer contribution towards health and dental benefits; designated in Connect 700 Program for Applicants with Disabilities. But some of that may be more appropriate elsewhere. Let's keep About the role as a brief overview: The position is a part-time evening shift Food Service Worker at the Preston Veterans Home, Food & Nutrition Services, performing routine food service tasks. Responsibilities: list: food preparation, short order cooking, serving meals to residents, dishwashing, cleaning food service areas, following established food service policies and procedures.

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. Qualifications (Preferred): 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 (maybe could be under Requirements as well): DHS background check; TB screening; employment reference checks. Those are additional requirements; we could include them under Requirements as additional bullet points. Benefits: list as per posting. Pay: Salary range: $20.87 - $25.88 hourly plus $2.25/hour shift differential for all hours worked after 6:00pm and before 6:00am. Schedule: Evening Shift 3:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m.; Days of work: varies, including weekends as assigned; Work schedule includes at least 16 hours per 2-week pay period and may include additional work hours based on business needs. We also have location: Preston; Agency: Minnesota Department of Veterans Affairs; Division/Unit: Preston Veterans Home / Food & Nutrition Services; Telework Eligible: No; Full/Part Time: Part-Time; Regular/Temporary: Unlimited; Who May Apply: Open to all qualified job seekers; Date Posted/Closing Date maybe not needed as they are metadata; but we could include in About the role? The instruction says do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it. So we could include location, agency, etc in a short paragraph under About the role or maybe a separate "Details" but we don't have a heading for that. Could add a short

    after the heading with location, agency, etc. But we need to preserve all substantive information. So we should include location, agency, division, telework, full/part time, regular/temporary, who may apply. These are minor metadata but we need to preserve them. We can fold them into a short

    under About the role or maybe a separate section like "Position Details" but we don't have a heading for that; we could just include them in About the role paragraph. Let's craft About the role paragraph: Include agency, location, division, telework, full/part time, regular/temporary, who may apply, and brief role description. Now we need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like EEO, etc. We'll omit those. Now produce HTML. Structure:
