Designer Brands · Columbus, OH · 3 wk ago
Full-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes "About Designer Brands" (company description) then "The Opportunity" then "What You'll Be Doing" (responsibilities) then "What You'll Need" (requirements/qualifications/skills) then "Perks and Benefits You’ll Enjoy!" (benefits) then "Hiring Range Notification" and "Job Details Pay Range $68000.00 - $78000.00 / hour". Also "Pay Transparency Company complies with Pay Transparency rules." We need to use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should only include sections that have real content. We have company description: "About Designer Brands". That could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is not present; we have "About Designer Brands". The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says we can use those headings, but we should not repeat job title as heading. We can use "About the role" heading for company overview? Might be okay. But we could also use "About Designer Brands" as heading? The examples are just examples; we can use those headings if appropriate. Probably better to map: "About Designer Brands" ->

About the role

(since it's about the role/company). Or we could keep the actual text as heading? The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid using other headings, but suggests using those. Safer to use those exact headings for sections we have. Thus sections: - About the role: contains the "About Designer Brands" paragraph(s). Also maybe "The Opportunity" could be part of About the role? But we can combine. - Responsibilities: "What You'll Be Doing" bullet list. - Requirements: maybe combine "What You'll Need" includes Experience Required, Education Required, Technical Knowledge & Skills, Analytical & Professional Skills, Communication & Collaboration. Could split into Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. But we have limited content; we can put all under Requirements or separate. We need to decide: The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine into: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (including experience, education, technical, analytical, communication), Benefits, Pay. We should not include Schedule as no schedule info. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details. We need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So for responsibilities list, we need to break into items. The responsibilities section has multiple bullet-like paragraphs each starting with a bold heading? Actually the text: "Execute Risk-Based Audits Conduct operational, financial, compliance, and internal control audits with limited supervision.Perform audit procedures including:Process walkthroughsRisk assessmentsControl testingData analysisEvidence evaluationDocumentation of audit resultsAssess the design and effectiveness of internal controls and identify opportunities for enhancement." That's a paragraph with no clear list but we can treat as a list? The instruction: Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. If not a list, we can use

      . The responsibilities have headings like "Execute Risk-Based Audits", "Analyze Data and Identify Insights", etc. Those could be considered list items. We'll make each as

    • . Similarly for requirements: we have sections: Experience Required, Education Required, Technical Knowledge & Skills, Analytical & Professional Skills, Communication & Collaboration. We'll make each as
    • under a
        . Benefits: "Perks and Benefits You’ll Enjoy!" includes bullet-like sentences: free virtual health care, robust family/fertility benefits, 401(k) w/ match, hybrid/remote work, training programs, professional development, education assistance, 30% off at DSW & DSW.com, discounts across family of brands. We'll list each as
      • . Pay: we have Pay Range $68000.00 - $78000.00 / hour. Also note "Hiring Range Notification" and "Pay Transparency Company complies with Pay Transparency rules." We'll include that in Pay section. We must not include boilerplate like cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. There's none. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not needed. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. None. We must output only HTML fragment. Let's craft:
