Senior People & Culture Generalist
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. Preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Include a section only when posting has real, specific content for it. Avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Do not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. Benefits are stated: "Benefits: AV offers an excellent benefits package including medical, dental vision, 401K with company matching, a 9/80 work schedule and a paid holiday shutdown." So we can include Benefits section. Pay not mentioned, so omit. Schedule: they mention "9/80 work schedule" which is a schedule detail; but schedule is part of benefits? It could be considered schedule. However they said only create Schedule section if posting actually states them. The posting mentions "a 9/80 work schedule". That's a schedule detail. Could be included under Benefits or separate Schedule. Since they said prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones, we could incorporate schedule into Benefits or maybe a separate Schedule section if we think it's substantive. But they said only create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It does state a schedule (9/80). So we could create a Schedule section with that detail. However they also said "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Might be better to include schedule within Benefits as it's a benefit. But they explicitly list Benefits, Pay, Schedule as possible headings. Since schedule is mentioned, we could create a Schedule section. But we also have Benefits section already. Could we combine? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe combine schedule into Benefits to avoid thin schedule section. However they said "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state schedule, so we could create Schedule section, but that would be thin (just one line). Might be considered thin. Better to incorporate schedule into Benefits or maybe under Responsibilities? Not appropriate. I'd include Benefits section that includes medical, dental, vision, 401K with company matching, a 9/80 work schedule, paid holiday shutdown. That covers schedule.
Now we need sections: About the role (summary), Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe Basic Qualifications), Qualifications (Other Qualifications & Desired Competencies), Skills (maybe we can embed skills in qualifications). But we need to decide which sections to include based on content.
We have:
- Summary: "Worker Type Contractor Summary Job Description The People & Culture Generalist, Sr. will provide support in the areas of Human Resource compliance, engagement, performance management, process improvement projects, and employee relations. The People & Culture Generalist primary responsibility is to assist in the development and implementation of P&C policies, programs, and initiatives to meet the needs of the organization and its employees. The P&C Generalist is responsible for assisting the P&C Business Partner team with a variety of HR duties across all AeroVironment locations. In this position, the People & Culture Generalist will use their HR functional expertise to align critical human resources principles with business objectives. Position is hybrid in Simi Valley, CA or Herndon, VA."
We can make an "About the role" section with that prose.
- Responsibilities: a big list of duties. We'll put under
Responsibilities
with - each duty.
- Requirements: Basic Qualifications (Required Skills & Experience). We'll put under
Requirements
(or Qualifications?). The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we have both Requirements and Qualifications. We could put Basic Qualifications under Requirements, and Other Qualifications & Desired Competencies under Qualifications. Skills maybe we can extract from qualifications (e.g., proficiency in Microsoft OS, Excel, PowerPoint, Word). Could put under Skills. But we might avoid thin sections. However we have enough content for Skills: "Demonstrated proficiency in Microsoft Operating Systems, Excel, PowerPoint, and Word". Also "Demonstrated excellence in verbal and written communication". That's a skill. So we could make a Skills section.
But we need to avoid duplication. The Basic Qualifications already includes many items: Bachelor's degree, 5+ years experience, knowledge of HR areas, understanding of employment laws, communication excellence, collaborative style, resourceful mindset, attention to detail, manage multiple projects, proficiency in MS Office. Those could be considered Requirements. The Other Qualifications & Desired Competencies includes prior HCM system experience (Workday preferred), experience with multiple large program implementations, ability to work across functions, fast-paced environment, initiative, ownership, learning from mistakes, teamwork. Those could be Qualifications.
Skills could be things like communication, collaboration, MS Office proficiency. But that overlaps. Perhaps better to not create Skills section and instead put those under Requirements or Qualifications. Since we have both Requirements and Qualifications headings available, we can use them.
Thus:
- About the role (summary)
- Responsibilities (list)
- Requirements (Basic Qualifications)
- Qualifications (Other Qualifications & Desired Competencies)
- Benefits (benefits package including schedule)
We should not include Pay or Schedule separate.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO statements, legal, ITAR details? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we need to strip out EEO statements, ITAR details, "Who We Are", "What We Do", etc. Also remove "Principals only need apply. NO agencies please." That's application instruction. Remove "For more information about our company benefit offerings please visit: http://www.avinc.com/myavbenefits." That's application instruction? It's a link for more info; could be considered boilerplate; we should remove. Also remove "We also encourage you to review our company website at http://www.avinc.com to learn more about us." Remove.
Also remove "Worker Type Contractor Summary Job Description" maybe keep as part of summary? The phrase "Worker Type Contractor Summary Job Description" seems like metadata; we can drop it. Keep the substantive description after.
Also remove "Position is hybrid in Simi Valley, CA or Herndon, VA." Keep that in About the role.
Also remove "Special Requirements U.S. Citizen, U.S. Permanent Resident (Green Card holder) or asylee/refugee status as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3) required." That's a requirement (citizenship). It's substantive; we should keep it under Requirements or Qualifications? It's a special requirement. Could be part of Requirements. We'll keep.
Also remove "Clearance Level No Clearance" maybe not needed.
Also remove "AeroVironment considers several factors..." that's fluff; maybe remove as boilerplate? It's generic; could be considered boilerplate. Safer to remove.
Also remove "ITAR Requirement ..." that's legal; remove.
Also remove "Please understand that any job offer that requires approval of an export license will be conditional..." remove.
Also remove "A “U.S. person” according to the ITAR definition..." remove.
Also remove "Some positions will require current U.S. Citizenship due to contract requirements." remove.
Also remove "Benefits: AV offers an excellent benefits package including medical, dental vision, 401K with company matching, a 9/80 work schedule and a paid holiday shutdown." Keep that.
Also remove "For more information about our company benefit offerings please visit: http://www.avinc.com/myavbenefits." remove.
Also remove "We also encourage you to review our company website at http://www.avinc.com to learn more about us." remove.
Also remove "Principals only need apply. NO agencies please." remove.
Also remove "Who We Are ..." remove.
Also remove "What We Do ..." remove.
Also remove "We are proud to be an EEO/AA Equal Opportunity Employer, including disability/veterans." remove.
Also remove "AeroVironment, Inc. is an Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) employer and welcomes all qualified applicants." remove.
Also remove "Qualified applicants will receive fair and impartial consideration without regard to race, sex, color, religion, national origin, age, disability, protected veteran status, genetic data, sexual orientation, gender identity or other legally protected status." remove.
Also remove "ITAR U.S. Citizen, U.S. Permanent Resident (Green Card holder), asylee/refugee status as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3) or a person approved for an export license from the appropriate governing agency." remove.
Now we need to preserve all substantive information: responsibilities list, basic qualifications, other qualifications, benefits, location hybrid, special requirement citizenship.
Let's extract responsibilities list from the text:
"Position Responsibilities Develops partnerships across the People & Culture team to deliver value-added service to leaders and employees that reflect P&C and company objectivesPeople & Culture Support: Provide general P&C support to employees and managers, such as answering P&C related inquiries/tickets, supporting P&C team with addressing employee concerns, and providing guidance on P&C policies and procedures.Partners with P&C Business Partners to provide day-to-day guidance to leaders in the form of coaching, counseling, career development, basic employment law compliance, and disciplinary actionsAssists employees with day-to-day P&C inquiries; works with internal P&C Centers of Excellence to ensure employee questions are answered thoroughly and timely; completes full circle follow up to employee.Assists in the development and execution of P&C policies and procedures; provides guidance and interpretation to leaders and employeesSuggests new policies and procedures for improving the employee experience, company culture, and the efficiency of the P&C departmentSupports P&C by maintaining compliance with federal, state, and local employment laws and regulations; recommends best practices and supports in the review of policies and practices to maintain compliancePerforms administrative P&C processes by completing various business processes in Workday to support the employee lifecycle (e.g. talent acquisition, separations, promotions, etc); maintains paper and online employee recordsManages/supports the employee separation exit process, including exit meetings, processing separations in Workday, separation paperwork and proper documentation for both contingent and non-contingent workersManages and/or supports global employee programs and events (e.g. Corporate Social Responsibility program, Employee Culture Club) as neededContinuously strives to identify, formulate, and execute process improvements and efficiencies Manages and/or supports the implementation of approved P&C and business strategiesManages and/or supports specific P&C projects as neededAct as an AV employer brand ambassador to both internal and external candidates and stakeholdersOther duties as assigned"
We need to split into sensible bullet points. The text runs together; we can parse by sentences. Let's create bullet points:
- Develops partnerships across the People & Culture team to deliver value-added service to leaders and employees that reflect P&C and company objectives.
- People & Culture Support: Provide general P&C support to employees and managers, such as answering P&C related inquiries/tickets, supporting P&C team with addressing employee concerns, and providing guidance on P&C policies and procedures.
