PROGRAM AIDE
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. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Preserve all substantive info. Include a section only when posting has real specific content. Avoid filler like "commensurate with experience", etc. Do not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them.
Let's parse the posting.
Content:
- Intro: Community Bridges envisions... (mission statement). Could be "About the role"? Actually it's about organization. Could be "About the role" or maybe "About the organization". The instruction says use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can include "About the role" heading with the mission statement and position description.
- Position Description: Under supervision of the Program Manager, the Program Aide prepares and provides activities for families with children of various ages. The Program Aide also performs other related duties as needed.
- Duties & Responsibilities: list bullet points.
- Professional Conduct: bullet points.
- Job descriptions are intended to be illustrative only... (maybe not needed? It's boilerplate? Might be considered generic but maybe keep? It's not a list of duties; it's a statement about job description. Might be considered boilerplate but it's part of description. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. This is not exactly those, but it's generic. Might be okay to keep? It's not a list; it's a statement. Could be considered filler but it's substantive? It says job descriptions are illustrative only; not restrictive. Might be considered generic but still part of posting. I'd keep it as a paragraph under Responsibilities maybe.
- We screen all applicants, require background checks... Drug-Free Work Place. This is maybe boilerplate but it's about hiring process. Might be considered application instructions? It's about screening. Might be considered boilerplate but not exactly EEO. Might be safe to keep? The instruction says remove application instructions. This is about screening, background checks, drug-free workplace. Might be considered part of qualifications? Could be placed under Qualifications? But it's more about hiring process. Could be omitted as boilerplate? I'd lean to omit because it's not directly about role responsibilities/qualifications. However it's substantive info about requirements (background check). The Qualifications section later includes "Must pass a criminal background check and maintain a clean record." So that duplicates. So we can omit the earlier statement.
- Union: The Program Aide position is represented by the SEIU bargaining unit. This is a detail about union representation. Could be a section? Not in list of headings but could be included under "About the role" or maybe a separate heading? Not in prescribed list but we could include as a paragraph under About the role. It's substantive.
- Other Job Details: This is a FLSA non-exempt position. The position is eligible for a $.20 on-call differential and a $.40 per hour bilingual differential after passing a test administered by the Human Resources Department. On-site attendance during scheduled work hours is required of this position.
This includes Pay differential info (on-call differential, bilingual differential). So we have pay info: $.20 on-call differential, $.40 per hour bilingual differential after test. Also FLSA non-exempt. So we should create a Pay section with that info. Also schedule? It mentions on-site attendance during scheduled work hours required. No specific schedule details. So we should not create a Schedule section unless posting actually states them. It does not give specific schedule, just says on-site attendance required. That's not enough to create a Schedule section (would be filler). So omit Schedule.
- Qualifications: EMPLOYMENT STANDARDS: Knowledge Of Methods and techniques of early childhood education; Child development and family life education; Child health and first aid. Ability To Supervise children up to the age of 18; Direct classroom activities; Work cooperatively with other staff, volunteers, parents and representatives of community organizations and agencies. Minimum Qualifications Must have a combination of education and experience that provides the skills, knowledge and abilities listed. A typical way to obtain these qualifications would be to have obtained units in Early Childhood Education and/or have work or personal experience that demonstrates an interest in and ability to work with children. Bi-lingual English/Spanish preferred. Must be willing to work at various times and days, including some nights and weekends. Must possess physical stamina to stand for long periods of time and sufficient strength to lift up to 50 lbs. Must pass a criminal background check and maintain a clean record.
We need to separate into Requirements, Qualifications, Skills maybe. The instruction says use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to decide what goes where.
We have:
- About the role: mission statement + position description + union maybe.
- Responsibilities: duties & responsibilities + professional conduct + maybe the illustrative statement.
- Requirements: maybe the "Minimum Qualifications" items like education/experience, bilingual preferred, willingness to work various times, physical stamina, background check.
- Qualifications: maybe the "EMPLOYMENT STANDARDS" knowledge and ability lists.
- Skills: maybe not explicitly listed; could combine with Qualifications or Requirements. But we could create a Skills section if we have specific skills listed. The knowledge and ability lists could be considered skills. But we already have Qualifications for knowledge/abilities. Could treat Requirements as minimum qualifications (education/experience, etc.) and Qualifications as knowledge/abilities. Skills maybe not needed.
- Benefits: not mentioned besides differentials? Those are pay differentials, not benefits. No health, retirement, etc. So we should not create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It does not. So omit Benefits.
- Pay: we have differential info. Also FLSA non-exempt. So Pay section.
- Schedule: not specific, omit.
Now we need to output HTML fragment with
headings and appropriate - for lists,
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information. Do not invent or summarize away detail.
Let's extract each piece.
About the role:
- Community Bridges envisions a thriving community where every person has the opportunity to unleash their full potential. Our family of ten programs delivers essential services, provides equitable access to resources, and advocates for health and dignity across every stage of life.
- Position Description: Under supervision of the Program Manager, the Program Aide prepares and provides activities for families with children of various ages. The Program Aide also performs other related duties as needed.
- Union: The Program Aide position is represented by the SEIU bargaining unit.
We could combine into a
or multiple
. Probably one paragraph for mission, second for position description, third for union.
Responsibilities:
We have Duties & Responsibilities list:
- Provides guidance to small groups of children in the areas of self-concept, sensory awareness, problem solving, concept formation and muscle development.
- As directed, prepares and plans activities appropriate to the developmental needs and expressed interest of children.
- Assists with supervision of small groups of children whose parents are participating in a discussion or education group.
- Communicates information about children in care to the child’s parent or guardian; initiates communication at arrival and exit to establish important information pertinent to the child’s care.
- Maintains an environment that fosters healthy emotional, social, cognitive and physical growth.
- Supervises snacks and meals.
- Cleans and maintains childcare equipment, such as toys, art materials, kitchen areas, storage areas, and rooms.
- Provides for the health and safety of the children.
- Assists with general clean up and for the opening/closing of the sites.
Professional Conduct list:
- Maintains professional competence through participation in in-service and early childhood education.
- Communicates effectively and respectfully with parents, volunteers and other staff at the Center, including persons from different racial, cultural and ethnic groups and from different backgrounds and lifestyles.
- Abides by child abuse reporting laws.
- Attends program and agency meetings and training's as required.
- Maintains confidentiality as it relates to clients, personnel, the agency and all records.
Also the statement: "Job descriptions are intended to be illustrative only; they are not designed to be restrictive or to define each and every assigned duty and responsibility. In an organization of this nature, each employee is expected to perform such duties as necessary to fulfill the stated goals of the agency." This is more generic but could be included as a paragraph after lists.
We'll include that as a
.
Requirements:
Minimum Qualifications:
- Must have a combination of education and experience that provides the skills, knowledge and abilities listed.
- A typical way to obtain these qualifications would be to have obtained units in Early Childhood Education and/or have work or personal experience that demonstrates an interest in and ability to work with children.
- Bi-lingual English/Spanish preferred.
- Must be willing to work at various times and days, including some nights and weekends.
- Must possess physical stamina to stand for long periods of time and sufficient strength to lift up to 50 lbs.
- Must pass a criminal background check and maintain a clean record.
We could also include "Must be willing to work at various times and days, including some nights and weekends." That's a requirement.
Qualifications (EMPLOYMENT STANDARDS):
Knowledge Of:
- Methods and techniques of early childhood education;
- Child development and family life education;
- Child health and first aid.
Ability To:
- Supervise children up to the age of 18;
- Direct classroom activities;
- Work cooperatively with other staff, volunteers, parents and representatives of community organizations and agencies.
We could format as two
under a heading Qualifications, or separate headings for Knowledge and Ability? But instruction only allows those headings. We can put both lists under Qualifications heading, maybe with introducing each.
Skills: Not explicitly separate; we could omit Skills section.
Pay:
- The position is FLSA non-exempt.
- The position is eligible for a $.20 on-call differential and a $.40 per hour bilingual differential after passing a test administered by the Human Resources Department.
We could also mention on-site attendance during scheduled work hours is required (but that's schedule). Since we aren't making Schedule section, we could include that in Pay or About the role? Probably better to include in Pay as a note about schedule requirement? But it's not pay. Could be included in About the role or Responsibilities? It's about work location. Might be considered "Other Job Details". Since we don't have a heading for Other Job Details, we could incorporate into Pay section as a note about schedule requirement? But that might be misleading. Perhaps we can create a separate heading "Schedule" only if we have specific schedule info. We don't. So we could omit that detail? But we must preserve ALL substantive information. So we need to include that statement somewhere. Where could we put it? Could be under About the role as a sentence: "On-site attendance during scheduled work hours is required of this position." That seems appropriate.
Thus About the role paragraph can include that sentence.
Alternatively, we could create a "Work Details" heading but not allowed. So we put it in About the role.
Now Benefits: none.
Now we need to ensure we don't create sections with filler. We'll have:
