Music Instructor Pool-Part-Time
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences.
We need to parse the posting.
Key info:
- Position Number: 2016631FT (maybe minor metadata)
- Location: Fullerton College
- Department: FC Fine Arts
- Percentage of Employment: Part-Time
- Months Of Employment (blank)
- Work Schedule: Varies (but we should not create Schedule section unless posting actually states them; "Varies" is vague; but we might include schedule info as part of prose? The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. "Varies" is a statement but it's vague; but it's still a statement. However they said never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD"). So "Varies" is considered placeholder; we should not create a Schedule section with just "Varies". So we should not include a Schedule heading.
- Job Description: includes Candidate should be available Monday-Thursday 7:50am until 2:00pm. That's schedule detail. So we can include schedule info under Responsibilities or maybe a separate section? The instruction says we can have sections like Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have schedule specifics (Monday-Thursday 7:50am-2:00pm). So we could include a Schedule section with that detail. However the earlier "Work Schedule: Varies" is placeholder; but we have more specific schedule in Job Description. So we can include Schedule section with that specific schedule.
- Primary Purpose: basically says duties as presented are representative and not restrictive; district reserves right to modify. That's generic; maybe we can incorporate into Responsibilities.
- Working Relationships Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities: (heading) but no content? Actually after that heading there is "Special Requirements". So maybe "Working Relationships Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities:" is a heading with no content; we should not create a section for it if no content.
- Special Requirements: about degree verification, transcripts, foreign degree evaluation. That's substantive.
- Minimum Qualifications: Master's in music OR Bachelor's in music AND Master's in humanities OR valid California teaching credential authorizing service in a community college in appropriate subject matter area. OR equivalent. Commitment to diversity statement.
- Desirable Qualifications: list of items.
- Working Conditions: Salary Range: $1606.01 - $1762.44 per lecture unit rate, $1606.01 - $1762.44 per lab parity unit rate, $1284.83 - $1409.87 per lab unit rate. Also Open Date, Close Date.
- Special Instructions Summary: includes recruitment active for one year, continuous recruitment, etc. Also instructions about documents, references, etc. Also NOCCCD will not sponsor visa. Reasonable accommodations contact.
- Non-discrimination statement: boilerplate; should be removed as EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate.
- To apply, visit: link; application instructions; should be removed.
- Copyright etc: remove.
We need to keep substantive info: schedule (Monday-Thursday 7:50am-2:00pm), special requirements, minimum qualifications, desirable qualifications, salary range (pay), maybe open/close dates (metadata). Also mention part-time, department, location maybe as minor metadata in a short
. Also mention percentage of employment part-time.
We need to avoid boilerplate: non-discrimination statement, application instructions, copyright, etc.
We need to decide sections.
Potential sections:
- About the role (maybe a brief prose summarizing position: part-time faculty in Fine Arts at Fullerton College, schedule Monday-Thursday 7:50am-2:00pm). Could be.
- Responsibilities: maybe list duties? The posting doesn't list specific duties beyond generic. It says "Primary Purpose Duties and responsibilities as presented are intended to be representative and not restrictive." No specific duties listed. So we might not have a Responsibilities section with substantive content. Could combine with About the role.
- Requirements: could be Minimum Qualifications.
- Qualifications: maybe Desirable Qualifications.
- Skills: maybe from Desirable Qualifications (e.g., advanced piano skills, effective oral/written communication, etc.) Could be separate Skills section.
- Benefits: none mentioned.
- Pay: Salary Range.
- Schedule: Monday-Thursday 7:50am-2:00pm.
We need to avoid creating sections with filler. So we need to ensure each section has real content.
Let's extract content:

at top: "Part-time faculty position in the FC Fine Arts department at Fullerton College."

Special Instructions Summary: This recruitment will remain active for a period of one year, from the position opening date. If there is no longer a need to fill, the position may be closed sooner, and applicants will be notified. This is a continuous recruitment to fill part-time, and temporary faculty assignments on an as-needed basis. When the need to fill arises, the department will refer to this pool of part-time faculty. Due to the high volume of applications received, we ask that you do not contact the department directly. They will review the information provided and contact you if you are selected for an interview. Possession of the minimum qualifications does not guarantee an interview. Also note that you must upload your resume and transcripts. Applications submitted without all of the required documents will not be considered. Evidence of degree conferred/awarded must be printed on a legible transcript. The minimum required number of references for this position is one (1). The candidate selected for employment will be required to provide the following: official transcripts and verification of experience prior to the first duty day, identification and employment eligibility as outlined in the Immigration Reform and Control Act, fingerprints and required medical certification pursuant to statue. NOCCCD will not sponsor any visa applications. Reasonable accommodations for applicants with disabilities may be requested by calling (714) 808-4810 at least three business days in advance of the scheduled examination/interview date.
We need to remove application instructions? The Special Instructions Summary includes instructions about not contacting department, uploading resume, transcripts, references, etc. That is arguably application instructions. The instruction says: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should remove application instructions. That includes the Special Instructions Summary? It seems like it's instructions for applicants. So we should remove that entire block. However we need to preserve substantive information; but the instruction says to remove application instructions. So we should not include that block. However some of that info might be considered substantive like "continuous recruitment", "pool of part-time faculty", "one year active". But those are still instructions about the recruitment process. Likely they want to remove them. Let's follow: remove application instructions. So we will not include Special Instructions Summary.
We also need to remove non-discrimination statement (EEO). Remove copyright, etc.
We need to keep schedule, special requirements, minimum qualifications, desirable qualifications, salary range (pay). Possibly also include location/department/part-time as a short paragraph.
We need to decide sections.
Potential sections:
- About the role: short paragraph describing part-time faculty position in FC Fine Arts at Fullerton College, schedule Monday-Thursday 7:50am-2:00pm.
- Requirements: Minimum Qualifications (maybe also Special Requirements? Could be separate). But we could have Requirements section covering both Special Requirements and Minimum Qualifications? Might be better to split: Requirements (special requirements) and Qualifications (minimum qualifications). Or we could have Requirements (minimum qualifications) and Skills (desirable qualifications). Let's see.
The instruction list includes sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to use headings
for those.
We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content.
We have:
- About the role: we can write a prose summarizing.
- Responsibilities: we have no specific duties listed; maybe we can skip.
- Requirements: could be Special Requirements (transcript verification, foreign degree eval). That's a requirement.
- Qualifications: Minimum Qualifications.
