Police Cadet (Contract)

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections with real specific content. No job title heading. Remove boilerplate, EEO, etc. Keep substantive info. Let's parse the posting. Key info: - Part-time Police Cadets Contract employee. - Opportunity to learn about law enforcement, experience challenges and rewards, exposure to rules, regulations, etc. - Must be available to work min 16-20 hrs per week, max 32 hrs per week, nights, weekends, holidays. - High School Diploma or GED. - Non-traditional high schoolers encouraged (homeschoolers, alternative education). - Ages 17-25 years old. (Individuals 16 may apply but must be 17 at time of offer.) - Recent college graduate OR currently enrolled in accredited college/university taking min 12 semester/18 quarter units toward earning a criminal justice degree, or an associate degree or higher, while maintaining min 2.0 GPA by age 21. - Police cadet may be sent to Mid-Michigan Police Academy as a Police Officer Recruit Sponsorship upon completion of degree program (based on departmental needs and timing). - U.S. Citizenship at time of appointment. - Possess a valid Michigan Driver's License with satisfactory driving record. - Possess good moral character as determined by background investigation. - Successfully pass criminal history record check and comprehensive background investigation. - Must meet physical and psychological standards as determined through testing, assessment, evaluation. - Must maintain a program employment status in good standing. Responsibilities: - Deal with public respectfully and courteously. - Learn, understand and apply applicable police department rules, regulations, instructions, laws, ordinances, policies, practices, and methods. - Operates computer to access law enforcement records, enter reports, and compose messages. - Conducts criminal, non-criminal, and accident investigations. - Investigates complaints by making inquiries, taking and recording information. - Participate in crime prevention activities such as neighborhood watch meetings, school and community group presentations and Police Department building tours. - Maintain records and retrieves information including computer usage. - Perform other related duties and responsibilities not requiring Police Officer powers. - Answer phone calls/work at the public police counter. - Complete all departmental mandated trainings. - Other duties as assigned. Application instructions: we need to remove application instructions (like attach resume, etc.) and contact info? The instruction says remove application instructions. So we should drop the "Application Special Instructions" block, contact email/phone, etc. Also remove EEO statements, accommodation, links, etc. Also remove the questionnaire list (01-07). Also remove "No benefits are available for TEA or Seasonal type employment". So we have no explicit benefits, pay, schedule info beyond hours. The posting mentions hours: min 16-20 hrs per week, max 32 hrs per week, nights, weekends, holidays. That's schedule info. So we can include a Schedule section with that detail. Pay: not mentioned. Benefits: not mentioned (they say no benefits for TEA or Seasonal type employment, but that's not a benefit; it's a statement that no benefits are available. According to rule: never create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It states "No benefits are available for TEA or Seasonal type employment". That is a statement about benefits (none). Should we include Benefits section? The rule: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state something about benefits (that none are available). That is stating them (i.e., stating that no benefits are available). So we could include a Benefits section with that statement. However, they also say "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Might be okay to include Benefits with that statement. But we need to ensure we don't include filler like "not specified". This is specific: "No benefits are available for TEA or Seasonal type employment". That's substantive. Pay: not mentioned at all, so omit Pay section. Schedule: we have hours info. Now sections: About the role (intro paragraph), Responsibilities (list), Requirements (maybe combine qualifications?), Qualifications (education, citizenship, driver's license, background, etc.), Skills (maybe not explicitly listed; we could omit if not present). The posting includes skills like dealing with public, computer operation, investigations, etc. Those are responsibilities. Could also be under Skills but we can keep them under Responsibilities. We'll follow typical sections: About the role (intro), Responsibilities (list), Requirements (maybe list of eligibility: age, education, citizenship, driver's license, background, physical/psych standards, GPA, etc.), Qualifications (maybe education specifics like criminal justice degree, GPA, etc.) but we can combine. To avoid thin sections, we can have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (covering all eligibility and qualifications). Or we could have About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications (education/credentials), Requirements (availability, schedule). But we need to avoid many thin sections. Let's decide: About the role (intro), Responsibilities (list), Requirements (list covering age, education, citizenship, driver's license, background, physical/psych, GPA, schedule). That seems comprehensive. We must not repeat job title as heading. So start with

About the role

then

... intro paragraph. Then

Responsibilities

• ... each duty. Then

  Requirements

  • ... each requirement. We need to preserve all substantive info. Let's extract. Intro paragraph: "The City of Lansing's Police Department is excited to announce openings for enthusiastic part-time Police Cadets Contract employee that are interested in joining their professional team. This great opportunity is designed for people interested in learning about, participating and experiencing various aspects of law enforcement and police work. Participants will have the opportunity to experience the challenges and rewards of a police career, giving them exposure to learn, understand and apply applicable police department rules, regulations, instructions, laws, ordinances, policies, practices and methods all of which are a nice introduction into a police officer profession." We can combine into a paragraph. Now Responsibilities list items: - Deal with the public in a respectful and courteous manner. - Learn, understand and apply applicable police department rules, regulations, instructions, laws, ordinances, policies, practices, and methods. - Operates computer to access law enforcement records, enter reports, and compose messages. - Conducts criminal, non-criminal, and accident investigations. - Investigates complaints by making inquiries, taking and recording information. - Participate in crime prevention activities such as neighborhood watch meetings, school and community group presentations and Police Department building tours. - Maintain records and retrieves information including computer usage. - Perform other related duties and responsibilities not requiring Police Officer powers. - Answer phone calls/work at the public police counter. - Complete all departmental mandated trainings. - Other duties as assigned. Now Requirements list: - Must be available to work a minimum of sixteen (16) to twenty (20) hours per week with a maximum of thirty-two (32) hours per week and be available to work nights, weekends and holidays. - High School Diploma or GED. - Non-traditional high schoolers encouraged to apply (homeschoolers, alternative education etc.). - Ages 17-25 years old. (Individuals 16 years of age may apply but MUST be 17 years of age at the time of offer.) - Recent college graduate OR currently enrolled in or attending an accredited college/university taking a minimum of 12 semester/18 quarter units toward earning a criminal justice degree, or an associate degree or higher, while maintaining a minimum of 2.0 GPA by age 21. - The police cadet may be sent to the Mid-Michigan Police Academy as a Police Officer Recruit Sponsorship upon completion of degree program (based on departmental needs and timing). - U.S. Citizenship at time of appointment. - Possess a valid Michigan Driver's License with a satisfactory driving record. - Possess good moral character as determined by a favorable, comprehensive, and extensive background investigation. - Successfully pass a criminal history record check and comprehensive background investigation. - Must meet physical and psychological standards as determined through testing, assessment and evaluation. - Must maintain a program employment status in good standing. Also maybe include "No benefits are available for TEA or Seasonal type employment" as Benefits section. Let's decide to include Benefits section with that statement. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits. We should not include Pay or Schedule separately because schedule is covered in Requirements (hours). But we could also have Schedule section separate. However, we already have schedule info in Requirements; we could move it to its own Schedule section to avoid mixing. The rule: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. If we split schedule out, we add another section. Might be okay but we can keep within Requirements. But we need to ensure we don't miss any schedule specifics: "Must be available to work a minimum of sixteen (16) to twenty (20) hours per week with a maximum of thirty-two (32) hours per week and be available to work nights, weekends and holidays." That's schedule. Now Benefits: "No benefits are available for TEA or Seasonal type employment". That's a statement. Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no markdown fences. Let's craft. Check for any duplicated lines: we should not repeat. Now produce:
