Instructional Designer / Content Development Lead- Suffolk, VA
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID etc.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from posting, but we can group them logically.
We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we need to strip out the EEO statement, the application window, accommodation instructions, etc. Also remove the "Serco is an equal opportunity employer..." etc. Also remove the "To review Serco benefits please visit: ..."? That's a link but maybe considered boilerplate? It's part of benefits description; but we might keep the benefits list but drop the URL? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The link to benefits might be considered navigation? It's a URL for more info; but it's not strictly boilerplate. However, we might keep it as part of benefits description? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; the URL is substantive? It's a reference; but maybe we can keep it as part of benefits description. However, the benefits section already lists benefits; the URL is extra. Might be okay to keep.
We also need to remove duplicated lines: there are repeated mentions of clearance etc. We should consolidate.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". So we avoid Pay and Schedule sections if no concrete data.
Thus sections we might include:
- About the role (summary paragraph)
- Responsibilities (list)
- Requirements (list: clearance, degree, experience, travel, on-site)
- Qualifications (maybe education, experience, JKO experience, etc.) but could overlap with Requirements. Might combine.
- Skills (maybe project management, scheduling, ability to handle multiple projects, etc.)
- Benefits (list)
We need to ensure we don't create thin sections. Let's see if we have enough content for each.
About the role: we can write a paragraph summarizing the role: leading instructional design and courseware development for JKO, supporting >2.5M users, linking government customer, internal/external teams, etc.
Responsibilities: we have many bullet points: scheduling/tracking production, reporting progress, serving as Content Development Lead supervising internal/external teams, working with Knowledge Services Chief, assisting with tracking projects, planning work via PM tools, understanding SOW limits, team composition, scheduling/assigning work, monitoring progress, delivering quality products, managing via task oriented terms, handling multiple projects at all IMI Levels including desktop and VCLASS.
Requirements: clearance (active Department of War Secret), Bachelor's degree in Multimedia Design or Instructional Design or related field, 8+ years experience, JKO experience and System Admin level access to JKO tool suites a plus, ability to travel up to 10%, must work on-site in Suffolk, VA.
Qualifications: maybe Master's degree desired, active clearance (again). Could combine.
Skills: ability to schedule and assign work, monitor progress, use project management tools, handle multiple projects, understand SOW, etc. Might overlap with responsibilities.
We could decide to have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits. That's four substantive sections. Avoid thin sections.
But the instruction says use headings from list; we can omit some if not needed. It's okay to not include all.
We must not repeat job title as heading. So we won't.
We need to output only HTML fragment.
