Sales Center Manager
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We need to avoid repeating job title as heading (the page already shows it). No job title given explicitly but we can ignore.
We need to not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings.
We need to include a section only when posting has real specific content for it.
Thus sections: About the role? Could be the introductory paragraph about POOLCORP. That's more about company; but we can treat as About the role? Might be better as About the role (description of role and company). We'll include.
Responsibilities: from "What to Expect? The Sales Center Manager exercises complete responsibility..." We'll put that as responsibilities.
Requirements/Qualifications: maybe combine? The instruction lists both Requirements and Qualifications as separate possible headings. We need to decide based on content. The posting has "What You Will Need" which includes experience, management experience, skills, age, etc. That's qualifications. Could also include "Strong sales aptitude and ability to manage a team" etc. That's more skills. We could split: Requirements: experience, years, management, age, etc. Qualifications: maybe knowledge of product lines, computer skills, etc. But we can also just have one section Qualifications. However we need to follow instruction: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section? But we have separate headings allowed; we could use Qualifications for the detailed list, and maybe Requirements for the experience? But that might be thin.
Better to have: About the role (company overview), Responsibilities, Qualifications (includes experience, skills, knowledge), Benefits, Pay.
We'll not include Schedule.
Now we need to extract precise content.
Let's parse the posting:
Location line: "Location: SCP Distributors; Port Charlotte, FL - 183 1169 S. Tamiami Tri, Port Charlotte, Florida - 33953 Pay: $70,000 to $85,000 plus annual bonus opportunities, company vehicle, benefits and SO MUCH MORE!"
We need to keep location? The instruction says do NOT repeat the job title as a heading and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Location is minor metadata; we could include in a short
at top maybe. But we need to preserve ALL substantive information; location is substantive? It's location of job. Should we keep? Probably yes, as it's important. But we need to decide where to put it. Could be a
before sections. The instruction: "fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." Location is not exactly minor? It's location; but we could include as a short paragraph.
Pay: we have pay line.
Now the rest:

We need to format benefits as list.
Then: "What to Expect?

That's qualifications/requirements.
Then the boilerplate about drug testing, EEO, etc. We'll remove.
Now we need to format.
We'll start with a
for location and pay? Actually location and pay are in same line. Could separate: location
, pay
or include in Pay section.
Pay section: we need to include pay details: "$70,000 to $85,000 plus annual bonus opportunities, company vehicle, benefits and SO MUCH MORE!" Also note that benefits are described separately; but pay section can mention base salary range and bonus, company vehicle.
We'll make Pay section with
Pay
then $70,000 to $85,000 base salary, plus annual bonus opportunities, company vehicle.
But we need to preserve "benefits and SO MUCH MORE!" but we have separate Benefits section; we could mention that benefits are detailed elsewhere. However we should not invent; we can keep phrase "benefits and SO MUCH MORE!" but that's vague. Might be okay to include in Pay section as part of description. But we already have Benefits section; we could just say "plus annual bonus opportunities, company vehicle" and not mention benefits. However we need to preserve ALL substantive information; the phrase "benefits and SO MUCH MORE!" is substantive? It's vague but it's part of the posting. We could include it as part of Pay section: "$70,000 to $85,000 plus annual bonus opportunities, company vehicle, benefits and SO MUCH MORE!" That preserves the exact phrase.
Now Benefits section: we need to list each benefit as - .
