Saint Louis Zoo · St Louis, MO · 1 mo ago
ManufacturingPart-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: Use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content.
We have:
- Position Summary (maybe "About the role"? The summary: "The Horticulturist will assist in the general maintenance and installation of the landscape throughout the Saint Louis Zoo. As an active member of Facilities & Planning, this position will support the Zoo’s mission and advocate the Zoo’s core values and three keys." That's about the role.
- Responsibilities: list of duties.
- Qualifications: includes education, experience, etc.
- Knowledge and experience... could be considered "Requirements" or "Qualifications". The posting has "Qualifications" heading then bullet list. Also "Knowledge and experience..." etc. Could treat as "Qualifications". Also "Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite..." etc. Could be "Skills". Also "Physical Requirements" and "Work Environment". Those could be separate sections? The instruction says use headings for specific categories: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can map:
- About the role: Position Summary.
- Responsibilities: list.
- Requirements: maybe "Physical Requirements" and "Work Environment"? Or "Requirements" could include physical requirements and work environment. But we also have "Qualifications" (education, experience). And "Skills" (Microsoft Office, etc). We need to decide.
We have content:
- Qualifications: High school diploma or equivalent required. Horticultural certification or undergraduate degree preferred. Equivalent experience may be considered in lieu of a degree or certificate.
- Knowledge and experience in general maintenance of turf, trees, shrubs, perennials, and ornamental grasses. Experience with operating equipment such as riding mowers and skid loaders preferred. Basic record keeping. Commitment to high standards. Good attendance record and work ethic. Versatility, flexibility, and a willingness to work within constantly changing priorities with enthusiasm. Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite; especially Outlook, Word, Excel and PowerPoint. Possession or the ability to obtain a Missouri Class E Driver’s License is required for residents of Missouri. All successful candidates for this position will be required to undergo a criminal background check and a drug test. As this is a safety-sensitive role, a negative drug test result is mandatory. The drug test screens for five substances, including marijuana.
- Physical Requirements: Must be able to push, pull, bend, squat, stoop, and twist many times a day. Must be able to safely lift, carry and load 50 pounds. Physical capacity to endure exposure to inclement weather, dust, heavy machinery, restraint devices and hazardous chemicals. Use of proper PPE may be required.
- Work Environment: This position will work primarily outside with some in shop. Significant exposure to weather is possible.
- About the Saint Louis Zoo: description.
- About St. Louis, Mo: description.
We need to remove boilerplate like EEO etc. Not present.
We need to include sections only if real specific content.
We have:
- About the role: we have Position Summary (maybe also include About the Saint Louis Zoo and About St. Louis? Those are more about organization/location, not role. Could be considered "About the role"? Probably not. The instruction says use heading "About the role" for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities...). So we should put the position summary under About the role. The zoo description and city description could be considered extra but not required headings; we could omit them as they are not under defined headings. However we must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. If we omit those paragraphs, we lose substantive info about zoo and city. But we could incorporate them into About the role? The instruction says "About the role" heading; we could include the zoo description and city description under that heading as part of role context. That would preserve info. However the heading "About the role" is meant for role description; but we can include extra info there. It's not prohibited. The important is not to create headings without real content. So we can have About the role with the summary plus zoo description and city description.
- Responsibilities: list.
- Requirements: maybe combine Physical Requirements and Work Environment? Or we could have separate sections: Requirements (physical) and maybe "Work Environment" not a standard heading; but we could put under Requirements as well. The instruction says we can use only those headings; we cannot create new headings like "Physical Requirements" or "Work Environment". So we must fit them under existing headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to decide where each piece fits.
Qualifications: education, certification, experience, driver's license, background check, drug test.
Skills: proficiency in Microsoft Office, record keeping, etc.
Requirements: physical requirements and work environment.
Benefits: Not mentioned except "Part-Time/Medical Benefit Eligible". That indicates medical benefits eligibility. So we have benefit info: medical benefit eligible. That's substantive. So we can create Benefits section with that.
Pay: Not mentioned. So omit.
Schedule: Part-Time mentioned. Could be schedule: Part-Time. That's schedule info. So we can create Schedule section with Part-Time.
Thus we will have sections:
- About the role (includes position summary, zoo description, city description)
- Responsibilities (list)
- Qualifications (education, certification, experience, driver's license, background check, drug test)
- Skills (Microsoft Office proficiency, record keeping, etc.)
- Requirements (physical requirements, work environment)
- Benefits (medical benefit eligible)
- Schedule (part-time)
We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID.
We must output only HTML fragment.
