Work Experience and/or Education:
- High school diploma or equivalent preferred.
Working Conditions (list):
- Frequent walking and standing
- Frequent bending, stooping, and kneeling to run check out station, stock merchandise and unload trucks; which may also require the ability to push and/or pull rolltainers for stocking merchandise
- Frequent handling of merchandise and equipment such as handheld scanners, pricing guns, box cutters, merchandise containers, two-wheel dollies, U-boats (six-wheel carts), and rolltainers

- Relocation assistance is not available for this position. (But we should drop relocation assistance line as it's not substantive? It's a condition but maybe we can drop as it's not a duty/requirement? It's a condition but we could include in Working Conditions? However it's about relocation assistance not available; it's not a working condition. Probably drop as it's not substantive for the role. The instruction: remove boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Relocation assistance not available is maybe a condition but not boilerplate? It's a specific statement. Might keep? But we have no section for relocation; we could include in Working Conditions as a sentence. However the instruction says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." We could include Working Conditions section with the list (excluding relocation assistance). We'll keep the rest.
We need to decide headings: About the role (General Summary). Responsibilities (Duties). Requirements (maybe combine Knowledge and Skills + Work Experience/Education). Skills (Knowledge and Skills). But we cannot duplicate content. If we put both Requirements and Skills, we would duplicate Knowledge and Skills. Better to have one section for Requirements that includes both knowledge/skills and experience/education. Or we could have Skills section for knowledge/skills, and Requirements for work experience/education. But the heading list includes both Requirements and Qualifications and Skills. We need to decide which to use.
We have content for Knowledge and Skills (skills). We have content for Work Experience/Education (qualifications). So we could map:
- Skills: Knowledge and Skills bullet list.
- Qualifications: Work Experience and/or Education bullet list (high school diploma or equivalent preferred).
- Requirements: maybe combine? But we could also omit Requirements if we have Skills and Qualifications. However the instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Having both Skills and Qualifications may be thin but each has content. Could combine into one Requirements section that includes both. But then we would lose the distinction. The instruction says to use headings only when posting has real, specific content for it. It does not forbid combining. It says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So better to combine into one section, maybe "Requirements" that includes both knowledge/skills and experience/education. Then we don't need separate Skills or Qualifications sections.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements.

That's it.
Check: Did we miss any substantive info? The Working Conditions list we omitted. Should we include? The instruction says include a section only when posting has real, specific content for it. Working Conditions is specific content. But we don't have a heading for Working Conditions in the allowed list. The allowed headings list does not include Working Conditions. So we cannot create a heading not in list. We must only use those headings. So we cannot include Working Conditions as a separate heading. Could we fold Working Conditions into Requirements? Possibly but it's not a requirement; it's about physical demands. Could be considered part of Requirements (job qualifications). But the instruction says "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." The "e.g." suggests these are examples, not exclusive? It says "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." Likely they expect only those headings. So we should not add a Working Conditions heading. We could incorporate some of those conditions into Requirements as bullet points? But they are not requirements; they are working conditions. However we could treat them as part of Requirements (job qualifications) maybe acceptable. But we already have Requirements with knowledge/skills and education. Adding physical demands might be okay.
But we must preserve ALL substantive information. If we drop Working Conditions entirely, we lose that info. So we need to include it somewhere. Since we cannot create a new heading, we could add it as a paragraph under Requirements or maybe under Responsibilities? But it's not a duty. Could add as a
after Requirements heading before the list? Or incorporate as list items under Requirements? The instruction: "Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits". Working conditions is a list of conditions, not duties/requirements/benefits. But we could still treat as list under Requirements? Might be okay.
Better: Add a
after Requirements heading describing working conditions in prose, preserving the details. That would preserve all substantive info without creating a new heading.
Let's extract Working Conditions bullets and turn into prose sentences.
