for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings? It says use those as examples; but we should follow that list? It says "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." Likely they expect we use those headings when appropriate. We have content about company, team, responsibilities, qualifications, logistics (hybrid schedule, team size), pay, benefits. There's no explicit "About the role" but we could use "About the Team" maybe as "About the role"? But they said do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. "About the role" is okay. We have "About the Team" describing the team. Could map to "About the role". Or we could create a custom heading? The instruction says use those examples; but not strictly limited? Safer to stick to those headings. We have:
- About the role: could combine "About our Company" and "About the Team"? Might be too much. Maybe we create two sections: "About the Company" and "About the Team" but those aren't in the list. However the instruction says use those as examples, not exclusive. It might be okay to add other headings if needed. But they said "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." That suggests we should use those headings when we have corresponding content. If we have content that doesn't fit exactly, we could still use those headings but maybe adjust. For company description, we could put under "About the role"? Not ideal. Could create a section "About the Company" but that deviates from examples. Might be okay but risk.
Better to follow the spirit: include sections for which we have real content: About the role (we can describe the role/team), Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Also maybe "Skills" if we have skills listed (like AI tools, organization, communication). Could put under Qualifications or Skills. The qualifications list includes many skills; we could separate Skills section. But we have qualifications already; we could keep Qualifications and maybe not separate Skills.
We have logistics: hybrid schedule, team size, work authorization. That could go under Schedule (hybrid schedule) and maybe a short note about team size in a paragraph.
Pay: salary range.
Benefits: description of benefits.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, scam warning, note about job scams, equal employment opportunity, etc.
We must preserve all substantive information: that includes company description, team description, responsibilities bullet points, qualifications bullet points, logistics (hybrid schedule, team size, work auth), pay range, benefits description.
We must not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all bullet points as they are.
