Senior Designer
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. No job title heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Portfolio Required**" line? It's a note but maybe part of content? It's not a heading; we can keep as paragraph? It says "Portfolio Required** This position is a hybrid in-office role..." So we need to preserve substantive info: hybrid in-office role details, location, schedule (Monday-Thursday in office, Friday WFH). Also visa sponsorship note. Also "Who We Are" paragraph. Then "The Role" description. Then "What You’ll Do" list. Then "What You’ll Need" list. Then "Benefits & Perks" list. Also "Assistance For Individuals With Disabilities" maybe not needed? It's EEO boilerplate; we should remove. Also "About Wayfair Inc." maybe considered boilerplate? It's generic company description; could be considered boilerplate but maybe we keep as "About the role"? Actually "About Wayfair Inc." is generic; we could drop as boilerplate. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. "About Wayfair Inc." is not explicitly listed but could be considered boilerplate? Might be okay to keep as "About the role"? However they said prefer few substantive sections. We could combine "Who We Are" and "The Role" into About the role? Actually "About the role" heading likely corresponds to description of role and team. We'll create sections:
- About the role: combine "Who We Are" and "The Role" paragraphs (maybe also hybrid schedule). We'll include schedule details there.
- Responsibilities: from "What You’ll Do" list.
- Requirements: from "What You’ll Need" list (maybe split into Requirements and Qualifications? But we can just have Requirements). They said use headings for sections like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could separate: Requirements (experience, education), Qualifications (maybe degree?), Skills (proficiency, abilities). But we have limited time; better to follow instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real specific content for it. We have content for Requirements (experience, degree), Skills (software proficiency, abilities), Benefits (list). Pay and Schedule: we have schedule (hybrid) but not pay. So we can include Schedule section with hybrid details. Pay: not specified, so omit.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits, Schedule.
We need to use for each heading. Use - for lists. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all bullet points exactly as given (maybe rephrase? but must preserve detail). We'll copy bullet points verbatim.
Let's extract:
Hybrid schedule: "This position is a hybrid in-office role that works out of our Boston HQ (Monday-Thursday will be working in office and Friday is work from home). This is not a virtual / remote position."
Visa sponsorship: "At this time, Wayfair will not sponsor applicants for this position for the following work visas: F1-OPT, STEM OPT EAD, H-1B, H-1B1, E-3, O-1, J-1, or TN."
Who We Are paragraph: "The Wayfair Experiential Retail team creates the signage and in-store experiences that bring all of Wayfair’s home brands to life, including Wayfair, AllModern, Joss & Main, Birch Lane, and Perigold. We work closely with retail, brand, copy, visual communications, and customer experience teams to create clear, engaging, and on-brand environments for customers."
The Role paragraph: "As a Senior Designer on the Experiential Retail team, you will focus primarily on bringing Perigold’s elevated brand identity into physical retail spaces. You will create signage, wayfinding, environmental graphics, and other in-store applications that help define the Perigold customer experience. Perigold is seeking a self-starting, detail-oriented Designer with strong design judgment, a high level of craftsmanship, and the ability to produce a large volume of polished work efficiently. The ideal candidate will have an online portfolio demonstrating strong typography, layout, visual design, and production skills."
