WARDEN
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info.
We need to parse the job description.
Key content:
- MDOC employs veterans etc. That's about the organization, maybe "About the role" or "About MDOC". Could be "About the role" includes description of department, veteran friendly employer, three positions available, facility options.
- Duties: list of duties: development and oversight; organizing and enforcing procedure and policy for security; assuring regular inspection of all buildings, grounds, security equipment, fire fighting equipment and maintenance equipment; responding to prisoner grievances at Step II; assuring appropriate security and program classification of prisoners, assuring standards of security, safety and humane treatment of prisoners as set forth in applicable administrative rules, developing and monitoring the implementation of operating procedures to carry out the requirement of department of policy directives; and interacting with the "external environment" (i.e., news media, representatives of the executive and legislative branches of state government, the judiciary, etc.). This position also directs implementation of the mission, the visions and goals of the department and the facility through an administrative structure of a Deputy Warden, Captains and other supervisory staff. He/she works with various labor organizations to resolve problems, conducts disciplinary conferences, and initiates disciplinary action as appropriate for rule violations or directs staff to take corrective action for performance problems. The Warden also oversees the expenditure of the facility budget, assuring the operation within the allotted allocations.
- Required Education And Experience: Education: Possession of a bachelor's degree in any major. Experience: Five years of professional experience including two years of experience as a professional manager or equivalent experience. Alternate Education And Experience: Education level typically acquired through completion of high school and five years of experience equivalent to a Corrections Shift Supervisor 13 or Corrections Security Inspector 13 may be substituted for the education and experience requirements.

All new employees will complete additional online training to successfully complete their non-custody new employee training. Employment in the state classified service demands a high degree of loyalty and imposes high ethical standards on employees to ensure the integrity of state government and maintain effective services. All employees must meet these ethical standards and all appointing authorities are obligated to enforce these ethical standards. As part of this effort all employees are required to report any possible conflict of interest, please review the information and be prepared to respond to questions related to the information in your application.

For Questions about this posting please refer to job posting # 4702-25-0019 AN and/or email at Nortona@michigan.gov. Accommodations If you require a reasonable accommodation to participate in the application or selection processes, please contact the ADA coordinator for the agency that posted this position vacancy.
We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. However, we need to preserve substantive info. The instructions about submitting via NEOGOV, transcripts, contact info, accommodations might be considered application instructions. The prompt says: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should remove application instructions like "Applications must be submitted through NEOGOV", "If you have questions...", "Accommodations...". Also remove "View the entire job specification here." etc. Also remove "Learn more about what makes MDOC a Gold-Level Veteran Friendly Employer here." Might be considered boilerplate? It's about veteran friendly employer, maybe relevant to "About the role". Could keep mention of veteran friendly employer as part of about. But the link "here" maybe not needed. We'll keep the statement: "MDOC is proud to employ nearly 1,500 veterans and actively serving military members across the department. The Department has many benefits and services available to support our military and veteran employees, spouses, and families." That's substantive about benefits for veterans. Keep.
Also "There are THREE (3) POSITIONS AVAILABLE. Please indicate each facility that you are interested in being considered for." That's about positions and facilities; keep.
"This position serves as the Warden at the either G. Robert Cotton Correctional Facility, Parnall Correctional Facility or Richard A. Handlon Correctional Facility." Keep.
Now we need to decide sections.
Potential sections:
- About the role: includes MDOC veteran friendly, three positions, facility options.
- Responsibilities: list of duties.
- Requirements: could combine Education and Experience, plus alternate, plus training requirements, ethical standards, background check, etc. Might be too much but we can split into Requirements and Qualifications? The instruction says use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Skills). We can choose which to include based on content.
We have education/experience requirements: that's Qualifications. Also we have additional requirements like training, ethical standards, background check: those could be Requirements.
Skills: not explicitly listed; maybe we can omit Skills if no specific skills.
Benefits: we have mention of benefits and services for military/veteran employees, but not explicit benefits like health insurance, retirement. The posting mentions "The Department has many benefits and services available to support our military and veteran employees, spouses, and families." That's vague but still a benefit mention. However we should not create a Benefits section if content is vague like "many benefits and services". The instruction: "never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. 'commensurate with experience', 'not specified', 'N/A', 'varies', 'TBD')". This is not exactly placeholder but vague. Might be okay to include Benefits with that sentence? Might be considered filler. Safer to omit Benefits section if not specific.
Pay: not mentioned.
Schedule: not mentioned.
Thus we may have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications.
We need to use for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must not repeat job title as heading.
We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail.
We need to ensure we include all substantive info from the posting, except removed boilerplate/application instructions.
Let's extract substantive info:
- MDOC employs nearly 1,500 veterans and actively serving military members across the department. The Department has many benefits and services available to support our military and veteran employees, spouses, and families. (Keep as about.)
- There are THREE (3) POSITIONS AVAILABLE. Please indicate each facility that you are interested in being considered for. (About.)
- This position serves as the Warden at the either G. Robert Cotton Correctional Facility, Parnall Correctional Facility or Richard A. Handlon Correctional Facility. (About.)
- Duties list: development and oversight; organizing and enforcing procedure and policy for security; assuring the regular inspection of all buildings, grounds, security equipment, fire fighting equipment and maintenance equipment; responding to prisoner grievances at Step II; assuring the appropriate security and program classification of prisoners, assuring standards of security, safety and humane treatment of prisoners as set forth in applicable administrative rules, developing and monitoring the implementation of operating procedures to carry out the requirement of department of policy directives; and interacting with the "external environment" (i.e., news media, representatives of the executive and legislative branches of state government, the judiciary, etc.).

All new employees will complete additional online training to successfully complete their non-custody new employee training.

We need to decide what to put in Requirements vs Qualifications.
Qualifications likely education/experience. Requirements could be training, ethical standards, background check.
We'll produce:
