Intervention Specialist
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have content: About The Team (description). Could map to "About the role"? Actually "About the Team" is about the team, not role. Could treat as "About the role"? The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can choose appropriate headings based on content. We have: About The Team (description of school). Could be "About the role"? Might be better to use "About the role" for description of role and team. But we also have "About the Opportunity:" which describes role responsibilities. Then "Responsibilities of the Intervention Specialist include ..." list. Then "About You:" list of qualifications/requirements. Then "About Us" description of organization. Then benefits and compensation details. We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. No Job ID. We must remove boilerplate: EEO etc. Remove that entire section. We need to include Pay section because salary range given. Also Benefits section because benefits listed. Schedule? Not mentioned, so omit. We need sections: About the role (maybe combine About The Team and About the Opportunity?), Responsibilities, Requirements (or Qualifications), Skills, Benefits, Pay. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have specific content. Let's extract: About The Team: description of school, mission, bilingual west, etc. About the Opportunity: The Intervention Specialist supports the educational and behavioral goals... (some prose). Could be part of About the role. Responsibilities: list bullet points after "Responsibilities of the Intervention Specialist include to-". Actually the list includes many items separated by line breaks. We'll convert each to
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It implies we can use those headings; not strictly limited to those but likely they expect those. We'll stick to those.
Thus we can have:
About the role
(combining About The Team and About the Opportunity)
Responsibilities
Qualifications
(mandatory)
Skills
(preferred)
Benefits
Pay
We must not include Schedule.
Now extract content precisely.
