Lieutenant
for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Also remove duplicated lines, application instructions, cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. Also remove "Note: This job will be posted through..." etc. Also remove "Current Washington County Employees: Please apply through the employee portal..." etc. Also remove "Job Type Regular Pay Range $128,055.48 - $163,392.84 Salary Department Sheriff's Office FLSA Exemption Status Exempt". Actually Pay Range is substantive: we need a Pay section if posting actually states them. Yes they gave Pay Range. So we should include a Pay section with that range. Also maybe Benefits? The posting mentions "award-winning benefits and wellness program" but not specific benefits. That's vague; we should not create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It says "offer an award-winning benefits and wellness program". That's not specific; we should not create Benefits section because it's not specific details. Similarly Schedule: not given. So we omit Benefits and Schedule.
We need sections: About the role (maybe "About The Opportunity" corresponds). Responsibilities (the bullet list of activities). Requirements (maybe "Minimum Qualifications" and "Additional Requirements"). Qualifications (maybe "Ideal Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities (KSAs)"? Actually KSAs are skills/abilities. Could treat as Skills. But we have separate Skills section. The posting includes "Skills" heading earlier: "Skills The Washington County's Sheriff's Office is currently looking for skilled law enforcement professionals..." That's a skills section. Also there is "Ideal Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities (KSAs)" which is more like abilities. Could combine into Skills section. We'll follow instruction: Use headings as given: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to map content.
- About the role: The "About The Opportunity" paragraph describing vision and role. Also maybe "As a Lieutenant, you will lead..." That's responsibilities. But we can put the vision paragraph under About the role.
- Responsibilities: The list of activities: investigations, patrol, jail operations and administration, criminal records, internal services, and a variety of general administrative leadership roles. Also "Incumbents perform a variety of technical tasks relative to assigned area of responsibility." Also leading, plan, organize, manage etc. We'll capture.
- Requirements: Minimum Qualifications (education/experience) plus Additional Requirements (pistol course, driver's license, background check, DPSST certificates). Also maybe "This position is not represented by a Union. This position is part of the Management Administrative Personnel System (MAPPS)." That's more about role but could be in Requirements? Might be considered qualifications. We'll include in Requirements.
- Qualifications: Could be the "Ideal Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities (KSAs)"? But we have Skills separate. Maybe Qualifications could be the "Ideal Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities (KSAs)" as they are qualifications. However the instruction says use Qualifications heading for qualifications. We'll put the KSAs list there.
- Skills: The earlier "Skills" paragraph: "The Washington County's Sheriff's Office is currently looking for skilled law enforcement professionals that can effectively lead a variety of Sheriff's Office (SO) operations and unit/division activities. Ideal candidates will have proven administrative skills that can also manage complex projects to successful completion. Must have the ability to navigate interpersonal relationships with individuals and groups that have competing interests. Finally, candidates must be skilled at managing personnel issues effectively and in a way that demonstrates SO core values: Do your best;Do the right thing; and Treat others the way you want to be treated." That's skills.
- Pay: The Pay Range.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc.
We must remove boilerplate like "Note: This job will be posted through..." etc. Also remove "Current Washington County Employees..." etc. Also remove "Job Type Regular Pay Range ..."? Actually we need Pay Range, but we should extract the pay range and put in Pay section; we can discard the surrounding text like "Job Type Regular Pay Range $128,055.48 - $163,392.84 Salary Department Sheriff's Office FLSA Exemption Status Exempt". We'll keep only the pay range.
Also remove "About The Department/Division" maybe we could incorporate into About the role? It's substantive description of department. Could be part of About the role. We'll include that paragraph under About the role.
Also remove "Supplemental Information Apply Online! Application deadline..." etc. That's application instructions; remove.
Also remove "Information Session:" etc. That's application instructions; remove.
Also remove "Minimum Qualification Review:" etc. That's process; remove.
Also remove "Mandatory Lieutenant Candidate Orientation" etc. That's process; remove.
Also remove "Mandatory Lieutenant Assessment Center" etc. Remove.
Also remove "Selection Process You can review our standard selection process here." Remove.
Also remove "Our Commitment To You" etc. That's boilerplate EEO; remove.
Also remove "Veterans' Preference", "Accommodation Under The Americans With Disabilities Act", "Status Of Your Application", "Notice: Washington County is currently undergoing..." etc. Remove.
Also remove "Questions? Recruiter Laura Aranda Email Address Laura_Aranda@washingtoncountyor.gov". That's contact info; maybe considered application instruction; remove.
Thus final HTML includes sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Pay.
We need to use for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the exact details from the posting, but we can format as lists.
Let's extract content.
About the role: Combine "About The Opportunity" paragraph and "About The Department/Division" paragraph.
About The Opportunity: "We envision Washington County as the safest urban county in Oregon by building strong community partnerships, providing excellent customer service, practicing prudent fiscal operations, and embracing excellence."
About The Department/Division: "The Washington County Sheriff's Office (WCSO) is a full-service law enforcement agency located in Hillsboro, Oregon, serving the county's urban and rural residents. WCSO enhances public safety by fostering professionalism, compassion, and trust within its team and the communities it serves. WCSO is the primary first responder for unincorporated residents, offering services from routine patrol and crime investigation to specialized teams. The WCSO also operates the county’s only jail and provides contract services to cities within the county."
We'll combine into one or two paragraphs. Use
for prose.
Responsibilities: The bullet list: "As a Lieutenant, you will lead, plan, organize, and manage a variety of law enforcement operations and unit/division activities within the Washington County Sheriff's Office. These activities include: investigations, patrol, jail operations and administration, criminal records, internal services, and a variety of general administrative leadership roles. Incumbents perform a variety of technical tasks relative to assigned area of responsibility."
We can make a
with items: lead, plan, organize, manage a variety of law enforcement operations and unit/division activities; investigations; patrol; jail operations and administration; criminal records; internal services; general administrative leadership roles; perform technical tasks relative to assigned area of responsibility. But we need to preserve detail; we can keep the sentence as a list item? Better to break into list items each duty. However we must not invent or summarize away detail. If we break the sentence into multiple items, we might be summarizing. Safer to keep the prose as a and then a
for the list of activities. The instruction: Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should list the duties as items. The duties are: lead, plan, organize, manage a variety of law enforcement operations and unit/division activities; investigations; patrol; jail operations and administration; criminal records; internal services; general administrative leadership roles; perform technical tasks relative to assigned area of responsibility. That seems okay.
But the phrase "lead, plan, organize, and manage a variety of law enforcement operations and unit/division activities" is a duty; we can keep as one item.
We'll produce:
- Lead, plan, organize, and manage a variety of law enforcement operations and unit/division activities.
- Investigations
- Patrol
- Jail operations and administration
- Criminal records
- Internal services
- General administrative leadership roles
- Perform technical tasks relative to assigned area of responsibility
That preserves details.
Requirements: Combine Minimum Qualifications and Additional Requirements and maybe the union/MAPPS statement.
Minimum Qualifications text: "Education and Experience: Possession of a Master's Degree in police science or a related field and at least six (6) years of work experience in law enforcement, of which three (3) years of this work must be in direct supervision of certified law enforcement professionals; OR Bachelor's Degree in police science or a related field and at least eight (8) years of work experience in law enforcement, of which three (3) years of this work must be in direct supervision of and administration of personnel functions for certified law enforcement professionals; OR Associate's Degree in police science or a related field and at least ten (10) years of work experience in law enforcement, of which three (3) years of this work must be in direct supervision of and administration of personnel functions for certified law enforcement professionals; OR Twelve (12) years of work experience in law enforcement, of which three (3) years of this work must be in direct supervision of and administration of personnel functions for certified law enforcement professionals."
Additional Requirements: "Must have or be able to obtain a passing score on practical pistol course. Must possess a driver's license valid in the State of Oregon and have an acceptable driving record. Must be able to pass an extensive background check. Must possess an advanced certificate from the Oregon Department of Public Safety Standards and Training (DPSST) or meet published DPSST requirements for advanced certification at time of appointment. Must possess a supervisory certificate from the Oregon Department of Public Safety Standards and Training (DPSST) or meet published DPSST requirements for supervisory certification at time of appointment."
Also statement: "This position is not represented by a Union. This position is part of the Management Administrative Personnel System (MAPPS). To review the MAPPS policy, use this link. To review the county personnel rules and regulations visit HERE." The links are boilerplate; we can keep the statement but drop the links? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The links to MAPPS policy and county personnel rules are likely navigation; we can drop them but keep the statement about MAPPS and union. We'll keep: "This position is not represented by a Union. This position is part of the Management Administrative Personnel System (MAPPS)." We'll drop the "To review..." sentences.
We'll format Requirements as a with items for each bullet.
We need to preserve the exact wording; we can keep the OR statements as separate items? Might be better to keep as a single paragraph? But instruction says use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should list each requirement as an item. However the Minimum Qualifications is a complex set of alternatives; we could list each option as a separate item. That preserves detail.
Thus items:
- Possession of a Master's Degree in police science or a related field and at least six (6) years of work experience in law enforcement, of which three (
