STORE MANAGER CANDIDATE - 21 and older only - INDIANAPOLIS IN
for each. Use - for lists. Use
for prose.
We must not repeat job title. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: EEO, navigation, legal, etc. Also remove "About Us" etc? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The "About Us" section seems like company overview; not required but could be considered boilerplate? It's not about the job specifics; but it's not EEO. Might be considered extra but not prohibited. However we should preserve substantive information about the job. The "About Us" and "Company Overview" are generic; could be considered boilerplate. Safer to omit them. Also note "Note: This position requires some travel with limited overnight stays" is substantive; include maybe under Responsibilities or a separate section? Could be under Responsibilities as a bullet.
We need sections: About the role (General Summary), Responsibilities (Duties And Essential Job Functions), Requirements (Job Qualifications? Actually Qualifications includes Knowledge and Skills, Work Experience/Education, Competencies). Could combine into Requirements and Qualifications? The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Skills). So we can have multiple sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. But we must avoid thin sections. Better to combine similar content.
We have: General Summary -> About the role.
Duties -> Responsibilities.
Job Qualifications includes Knowledge and Skills, Work Experience/Education, Competencies. Could split into Requirements (maybe experience/education) and Qualifications (knowledge/skills) and Skills (competencies). But we have limited distinct content.
We could do: About the role (p), Responsibilities (ul), Requirements (p for education/experience), Qualifications (ul for knowledge/skills), Skills (ul for competencies). Benefits, Pay, Schedule not present -> omit.
Let's extract specifics.
General Summary: "The Store Manager Candidate supports the Store Manager in the effective implementation of all store processes including employee supervision, staffing, inventory management, stocking and receiving, paperwork, and store needs. This position is utilized to foster interactive development of an external candidate for the Store Manager role and is to be held for a limited period."
That's prose.
Responsibilities list: many bullet-like sentences separated by periods. We'll convert each to
- .

Now Requirements: Work Experience and/or Education: "High school diploma or equivalent strongly preferred. One year of experience in a retail environment preferred for external candidates".

Working Conditions and PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS: Could be a section? Not in allowed headings list but we could put under Responsibilities or a separate section like "Working Conditions". Not in list but we could omit or put under Responsibilities as extra bullet. The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says e.g., not exclusive. But better to stick to those. We could incorporate physical requirements into Responsibilities as a bullet.
Let's add bullet: "Frequent walking and standing; frequent bending, stooping and kneeling to run check out station, stock merchandise and unload trucks; frequent handling of merchandise and equipment such as hand-held scanners pricing guns, box cutters, merchandise containers and carts, two-wheel dollies, and U-boats (six-wheel carts); frequent and proper lifting of up to 40 pounds; occasional lifting of up to 55 pounds; occasional climbing (using ladder); occasional driving/providing own transportation to make bank deposits, attend management meetings and to other Dollar General stores; fast-paced environment; moderate noise level; occasionally exposed to outside weather conditions."
