Middle School ELA Teacher, 7th Grade

About the role

. However we need to avoid repeating "Role and Responsibilities" as heading; we already have About the role heading. We'll keep that sentence. But we also have a separate Responsibilities section later with many bullet-like sentences. We'll create

Responsibilities

• items. We also have Qualifications and Education Requirements: we can make

  Qualifications

  (or Qualifications and Education Requirements). Use heading Qualifications. We have Preferred Skills:

  Skills

  . We have Additional Notes (Working Conditions etc.) maybe we can treat as

  Working Conditions

  or

  Additional Notes

  . The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. It doesn't list Working Conditions, but we can still include a section if posting has real specific content for it, but we should prefer headings from list? It says "use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." The e.g. suggests those are examples, not exclusive. But later: "IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text". So we can add other headings if needed, but better to stick to those examples. However we have content about working conditions; we could fold into Responsibilities or Qualifications? Not really. Could be part of Responsibilities? Not exactly. Could be part of Qualifications? Not. Could be part of Benefits? Not. Could be part of Schedule? Not. Could be part of About the role? Not. We could create a section "Working Conditions" as heading, even though not in examples, but the instruction says use h3 for section headings (e.g. ...). It doesn't forbid other headings. Safer to include it as a section with heading "Working Conditions". We'll do that. Also we have "Schedule" info: standard workweek, may work evenings, weekends, etc. We'll create
