Talent Acquisition & Safety Coordinator
for section headings, - for lists,
for prose. Don't repeat job title. Don't include Job ID. Remove boilerplate. Only include sections with real content.
Let me structure this:
- About the role: The first paragraph describes the role.
- Responsibilities: I'll group the five areas under one Responsibilities heading with sub-lists or separate lists. Since they're distinct areas, I could make them sub-sections but the rule says use h3 for section headings like Responsibilities, Requirements, etc. I think I'll make "Responsibilities" as h3 and then use lists for each area, maybe with bold labels or separate lists. But the rule says use ul li for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. I could make a list where each item is a responsibility area with sub-items? But HTML doesn't have nested lists in the spec? Actually you can nest ul inside li. That might be okay. But the instruction: "Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits". I think I'll create a list for each major responsibility area, each as a separate ul with a heading? But headings should be h3 only for main sections. Could use strong inside li for the area name. Or I could make each area a separate h3? The rule says use h3 for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So Responsibilities is one section. I'll put all responsibilities under one h3, then use ul with li for each bullet point. The posting has bullet points under each area. I'll combine them into one big list? But they are grouped. I'll keep the grouping by using a list where each item starts with the area name in bold, then sub-bullets? But nested lists are allowed. I'll do nested ul.
Better: For each responsibility area, create a
with a - that contains the area name and a nested
of duties. But the rule says use ul li for any list. That's fine.
Alternatively, I could make each area a separate h3? But the example headings include Responsibilities as one. I'll keep Responsibilities as one h3, then use a list of the five areas with sub-lists.
Let me write the HTML.
Also, Pay section: include because it's stated. Benefits: include. Education, Experience, License/Certification, Work Location: these are like requirements. Could fold into Qualifications. The posting has "Required Qualifications" and "Preferred Qualifications" and then separate lines for Education, Experience, License/Certification, Work Location. I'll include them under Qualifications or separate sections? The rule says use h3 for section headings like Qualifications. I'll make "Qualifications" as h3 with two subsections: Required and Preferred. Then maybe "Education", "Experience", "License/Certification", "Work Location" are part of required qualifications. Actually the posting lists them separately after Benefits. They seem like metadata. I'll include them as a short paragraph or list under Qualifications. But the rule: "fold minor metadata into a short or drop it." These are not minor; they are specific requirements. I'll include them as a list under Qualifications.
