First Place for Youth · Hattiesburg, MS · 1 mo ago
OTHRFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes: About First Place for Youth, Why Work At First Place For Youth, POSITION SUMMARY, DUTIES + RESPONSIBILITIES, Qualifications, Compensation details (Pay). Also maybe Benefits? There's a line "Comprehensive Benefits: We value the well-being..." That's a benefits description. So we need sections: About the role? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We should map content to these headings. We have: About First Place for Youth (organization description) maybe "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is generic; but we have "About First Place for Youth" which is about organization. Could treat as "About the role"? The instruction says use those headings as examples; we can use them if appropriate. We have content for: About the role? Not exactly; we have POSITION SUMMARY which could be "About the role". We have Responsibilities (DUTIES + RESPONSIBILITIES). We have Requirements/Qualifications (Qualifications). We have Benefits (Comprehensive Benefits). We have Pay (Compensation details). We have Skills? Not explicitly but could be part of Qualifications. We have Schedule? Not given. So we should include sections only when there is real specific content. So include: About the role (using POSITION SUMMARY), Responsibilities (DUTIES+RESPONSIBILITIES), Requirements (Qualifications), Benefits, Pay. Possibly also "About the organization"? Not in list but we could still include but instruction says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine organization description into About the role? Might be okay to have separate "About the organization" but not in list. Better to stick to given headings. Thus:

About the role

POSITION SUMMARY content...

Responsibilities

  • ... each duty as li

Requirements

  • ... qualifications

Benefits

Comprehensive Benefits paragraph...

Pay

Compensation details: 20.85-22.08 Hourly Wage...

We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate: EEO, etc. Also remove navigation, cookie, legal, duplicated lines, application instructions (like "To learn more... visit website", "We are unable to sponsor work visas", etc). Also remove "First Place will consider qualified applicants with a criminal history..." etc. Also remove "Local candidates preferred Pay will be determined based on Education and Experience." Actually that is part of Pay? It says Pay will be determined based on Education and Experience. That's vague; we should not include placeholder like "commensurate with experience". But we have actual pay range: 20.85-22.08 Hourly Wage. So we can include that. The line "Local candidates preferred" is not pay; maybe we can drop as it's not substantive? It's a preference but not required; could be considered metadata. Might drop. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include the duties list exactly as given, but we can break into li items. Must not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to copy each duty sentence as li. Let's extract duties from DUTIES + RESPONSIBILITIES section: Operations and Management - Develop and maintain an inventory of appropriate units for program participants by networking with landlords, renter's associations, property management businesses, and permanent housing providers in assigned regions. - Perform property and resident management duties for an assigned portfolio of master leased scattered sites within a specified region or county. - Oversee and coordinate move and relocation activities including ensuring all paperwork for a landlord is complete, scheduling of lease signings and move-in dates, coordinating the delivery of furniture, turning on utilities, copying keys, turning units, and other housing-related duties as needed. - Ensure properties are physically maintained and meet habitability and safety standards in accordance with program regulations and First Place guidelines. - Conduct move-in/out, annual and special inspections including lead paint assessments and fire extinguisher expiration.

Administration and Compliance - Review and track all master leases at inception and ongoing. Determine lease terms are correct and acceptable and follow First Place lease routing requirements.

Qualifications section: Let's extract: Qualifications: - Bachelor's degree preferred or a combination of education and experience that demonstrates a capacity to secure and manage housing in a supportive housing program serving former foster youth. - Two years of experience working in affordable housing, housing navigation, and/or residential property management settings. - A strong dedication to cultural competency that creates conditions that remove barriers and increase a sense of belonging. - Working knowledge of landlord-tenant, fair housing, and ADA laws with the ability to comprehend regulatory and legal agreements, contracts, and the housing industry. publications. (Seems weird: "publications." maybe a typo; we keep as is.) - Subsidized housing regulation experience desired. - Experience working with resident service providers preferred. - Working knowledge of work order systems and basic apartment maintenance. - Ability to organize and manage processes and facilitate schedules and logistics. - Ability to deliver services through the lens of trauma-informed care, positive youth development, cultural humility and responsiveness, and harm reduction. - Excellent customer service skills. - Capacity to work independently in the field, and a willingness to work collaboratively. - Must have a dependable car, a valid driver’s license, and proof of insurance. - Must be able to pass a Community Care Licensing background check. - Computer Skills-- Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications including MS Word, Excel, Access, PowerPoint, Project, Outlook, and Property Management or data tracking software.

We also have "Local candidates preferred" and "Pay will be determined based on Education and Experience." We'll drop those as not specific. Benefits: "Comprehensive Benefits: We value the well-being of our employees and offer a comprehensive benefits package. From health and wellness benefits to retirement plans, we ensure that our team members are taken care of so they can focus on their important work supporting foster youth." Pay: "Compensation details: 20.85-22.08 Hourly Wage PIfdbe101bb8c7-25448-41531259" The trailing weird string likely a garbage; we should keep the wage range and maybe drop the garbage. The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. The garbage looks like maybe a tracking code; it's not substantive? Might be part of the posting but not meaningful. Safer to keep exactly as appears? It says "Compensation details: 20.85-22.08 Hourly Wage PIfdbe101bb8c7-25448-41531259". That seems like a code appended; maybe it's an internal ID. It's not boilerplate; it's part of the line. I'd keep it as is. Now About the role: Use POSITION SUMMARY text: "First Place is seeking an energetic property management professional to assist with managing the day-to-day operations of housing for a diverse population of young adults. The selected candidate will work closely with the Program Manager to secure a well-managed and well-maintained portfolio of master leased scattered site units throughout the community.
