We need to remove boilerplate: EEO, legal, terms, privacy, application instructions, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. Keep substantive info: role description, impact, responsibilities, qualifications, skills, work location, travel, relocation, compensation range, benefits mention, company vehicle requirement, safety/EHS, employee agreement maybe? The employee agreement is maybe not boilerplate? It's about confidentiality etc. Might be considered boilerplate? It's specific to 3M but still legal. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The employee agreement about confidentiality and trade secrets might be considered legal boilerplate; but it's part of the job description? Might be considered legal. Safer to remove it. Also remove "Learn more about 3M’s creative solutions..." etc. Remove "Chat with Max..." etc. Remove "Good Faith Posting Date Range..." maybe not needed? It's metadata but could be considered minor; but instruction says do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we could include a short paragraph for posting date range? Might be considered minor metadata; we could drop it. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we likely want sections: About the role (intro + impact), Responsibilities (list of duties), Requirements/Qualifications (minimum qualifications), Skills (additional qualifications), Work location/Travel/Relocation (maybe as a section "Work Details" but not in list of allowed headings; we have only specific headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can use those. We need to map content. - About the role: intro paragraph + impact description. - Responsibilities: list of duties from "The Impact You’ll Make..." (the bullet-like sentences) plus maybe "Company Vehicle" requirement? Actually company vehicle is a requirement not responsibility. Also "Responsibilities of this position include that corporate policies, procedures and security standards are complied with while performing assigned duties." plus safety/EHS culture. Those are responsibilities. - Requirements: minimum qualifications: Bachelor's degree or higher, 2 years sales experience, current valid driver's license. - Qualifications: maybe same as Requirements? The spec distinguishes Requirements and Qualifications; but we can treat Requirements as minimum, Qualifications as preferred? However we have both headings allowed. We could put minimum under Requirements, and additional qualifications under Qualifications. Or we could combine. But we need to avoid thin sections. Let's see: we have minimum qualifications (3 items). Additional qualifications that could help you succeed: list of items (experience articulating value propositions, understanding manufacturing, experience developing/managing key accounts, product demo experience, strong track record collaboration, bilingual English/Spanish). That's substantive. - Skills: maybe we could put skills under Skills heading: but we already have additional qualifications; maybe we treat those as Skills. Could also put language skills under Skills. But we have both Qualifications and Skills headings allowed; we need to decide. Better: Use Requirements for minimum qualifications (degree, experience, driver's license). Use Qualifications for additional qualifications that could help you succeed (value proposition, manufacturing, key accounts, product demo, collaboration, bilingual). Use Skills maybe for something else? Could put "Strong track record of collaboration and cross-functional teamwork" as skill but it's already in qualifications. Could leave Skills empty? Not allowed to emit heading with filler. So we should not include Skills if no specific content distinct. Could combine additional qualifications under Qualifications and skip Skills. - Benefits: we have mention of benefits programs, but not specific list; we have "3M offers many programs to help you live your best life – both physically and financially." plus list of benefit types (Medical, Dental & Vision, Health Savings Accounts, Health Care & Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts, Disability Benefits, Life Insurance, Voluntary Benefits, Paid Absences and Retirement Benefits, etc.). That's substantive enough for Benefits section. - Pay: we have compensation range $90,361 - $110,442 base plus variable incentive pay. That's specific. So Pay section. - Schedule: we have work location remote Indianapolis, overnight travel up to 20%, relocation assistance may be authorized. That's not exactly schedule but could be considered Schedule? The instruction says use Schedule heading for schedule info. We have travel percentage; maybe we can treat as Schedule. Or we could drop Schedule if not explicit schedule like shift times. But we have travel percentage; maybe we can include under Schedule. However we also have work location; maybe we can include under About the role? But we have a separate heading for Schedule allowed. Let's include Schedule with travel and relocation. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details: e.g., "Meeting or exceeding designated sales quota in your defined sales territory", "Partnering with local channel teams to execute growth initiatives, strategies, and programs", "Developing end-user customers and application processes to drive growth of the Industrial Adhesives & Tapes portfolios", "Providing key market and customer insights to Industrial Adhesives & Tapes Division portfolio managers, marketing, application engineers and leadership", "Collaborating with 3M’s End-User Key Accounts Team to drive growth, through key end-user customers", "Effectively and consistently managing your opportunity pipeline, while conducting strategic planning for new opportunities and regular business reviews for key markets and end-user customers in the region." Also "Company Vehicle This position requires driving a company vehicle, which will require pre-employment and ongoing review of motor vehicle history for candidates who are offered and hired for this position
