for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections where there is real specific content. No filler like "commensurate with experience". We must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc). The description includes: purpose, essential functions (list), knowledge, skills and abilities (list), minimum qualifications (education/experience, licenses), additional information (physical demands, work environment). Also benefits: "12 Scheduled Paid Holidays a Year Paid Vacation Time & Paid Sick Leave BCBS Health & Dental - Low Premiums Retirement Systems of Alabama". Also pay differential for CDL: "Employees that hold a Class A CDL will receive a $1.00 per hour pay differential. Employees that hold a Class B CDL will receive a $0.85 per hour pay differential." That's pay info. No explicit schedule given. So we can include Benefits and Pay sections. Possibly also About the role (purpose). Responsibilities (essential functions). Requirements (maybe minimum qualifications). Qualifications (maybe licenses?). Skills (knowledge, skills and abilities). We need to decide mapping.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail.
We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content.
Let's extract:
About the role: The purpose paragraph: "The purpose of this classification is to perform manual work functions associated with construction, repair, maintenance, landscaping, and grounds keeping of city streets/roads, drainage systems, parks, and recreation facilities."
That's prose.
Responsibilities: Essential Functions list (multiple bullet-like sentences). We'll turn each sentence into
- .
Requirements: Minimum Qualifications: Education and Experience: "High school diploma or equivalent; supplemented by five (5) months previous experience and/or training involving equipment operation, manual labor, road maintenance/construction, or landscaping/grounds keeping; or any equivalent combination of education, training, and experience which provides the requisite knowledge, skills, and abilities for this job." That's prose.
Licenses Or Certifications: "Valid State of Alabama driver’s license." Could be part of Requirements or Qualifications. We'll treat as Qualifications maybe.
Skills: Knowledge, Skills and Abilities list: multiple bullet points.
Benefits: "12 Scheduled Paid Holidays a Year Paid Vacation Time & Paid Sick Leave BCBS Health & Dental - Low Premiums Retirement Systems of Alabama". That's a list of benefits. Could be
- .
Pay: Pay differential info: "Employees that hold a Class A CDL will receive a $1.00 per hour pay differential. Employees that hold a Class B CDL will receive a $0.85 per hour pay differential." That's pay.
Schedule: No explicit schedule info, so we omit Schedule section.
Also Additional Information: Physical Demands and Work Environment. Could be part of Requirements? Might be considered as "Working Conditions" but not in allowed headings. We could incorporate into Responsibilities? Probably better to include as a separate section? Not allowed headings besides those listed. Could we put under Requirements? Might be okay to include as a
under Requirements or maybe under About the role? But we must preserve all substantive info. We could add a section "Working Conditions" but not allowed. The instruction: use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says use those for section headings, but does not forbid other headings? It says use for section headings (e.g. ...). Likely they expect only those headings. But we need to preserve all info; we can embed physical demands and work environment into Responsibilities or Requirements as prose. Probably best to add a paragraph under Requirements (or maybe under About the role) describing physical demands and work environment.
We must not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the exact sentences.
Let's extract physical demands paragraph: "The work is moderate work which requires exerting up to 50 pounds of force. Work requires the regular and, at times, sustained performance of moderately physically demanding work, typically involving some combination of climbing and balancing, stooping, kneeling, crouching, and crawling, and that may involve the lifting, carrying, pushing, and/or pulling of moderately heavy objects and materials. Some tasks require the ability to perceive and discriminate colors or shades of colors, sounds, depth, texture, and visual cues or signals. Some tasks require the ability to communicate orally."
Work environment: "Work is performed in an outdoor environment. Performance of essential functions may require exposure to adverse environmental conditions, such as dirt, dust, pollen, odors, wetness, humidity, rain, fumes, temperature and noise extremes, machinery, vibrations, electric currents, traffic hazards, toxic agents, disease, or pathogenic substances."
We'll include these as a
under Requirements or maybe under a separate section "Working Conditions" but not allowed. I'll add them as a
under Requirements after the education/experience paragraph.
Now Benefits: list items: "12 Scheduled Paid Holidays a Year", "Paid Vacation Time & Paid Sick Leave", "BCBS Health & Dental - Low Premiums", "Retirement Systems of Alabama". We'll make
- each.
Pay: two sentences; could be
- each or
. Since it's a list of pay differentials, we can use
.
Now Knowledge, Skills and Abilities: list of bullet points. We'll make - .
Now we need to decide headings: About the role (
About the role
), Responsibilities (Responsibilities
), Requirements (Requirements
), Qualifications (Qualifications
), Skills (Skills
), Benefits (Benefits
), Pay (Pay
). Possibly we could combine Requirements and Qualifications? But we have both education/experience and licenses. Could treat Requirements as education/experience, Qualifications as licenses. That's fine.
Now ensure we don't include empty sections.
Now produce HTML fragment.
