Instructional Lab Assistant - Auto Collision (Part Time)
for section headings (e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). They gave examples but we can use appropriate headings based on content. Likely headings: About the role (maybe combine Job Goal and General Job Summary), Responsibilities (Duties/Responsibilities), Requirements (Minimum Qualifications plus Licenses etc), Skills (maybe Universal Core Competencies?), Schedule (the schedule), Why Kirkwood (maybe as a section about the institution). Also Performance Expectations could be part of Requirements or separate? Could be a separate section like Expectations. But they said prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine Performance Expectations into Requirements or Responsibilities. However we have many sections; we need to decide.
We must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include all details but can group.
Potential sections:
- About the role (Job Goal + General Job Summary)
- Responsibilities (Duties/Responsibilities)
- Requirements (Minimum Qualifications + Licenses, Certifications, Or Registrations Required + Preferred Qualifications...)
- Core Competencies (Universal Core Competencies) maybe as Skills.
- Schedule (the schedule details)
- Why Kirkwood (description)
Performance Expectations could be merged into Requirements or Responsibilities. Physical Activities could be part of Requirements (maybe as a subsection). But we need to preserve that info; we can include it under Requirements as a list.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc.
We must use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
Thus for each section we need to decide if content is prose or list.
Let's extract content.
Job Goal: "To advance the college’s mission, vision, principles, values and strategic initiatives through activities that promote innovative, quality, clinical experiences that promote student clinical competence and maintain/improve community partnerships."
