Warehouse Associate
DSG Supply · Rapid City, SD · 1 mo ago
Full-time
We need to output HTML fragment with 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. Must preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate.
We need to parse the posting.
Key info:
- DSG seeking a Warehouse Associate in Rapid City, SD location.
- Full time, hourly position, work typically performed between 7 am and 5 pm, Monday through Friday, but may vary on occasion according to business needs.
- Responsibilities: list of duties (order pulling, shipping & receiving, putting product away, handling and preparing product for shipment, maintaining safe clean environment, etc.) plus the "A Typical Day in the Life..." list.
- Requirements/Qualifications: "A Successful Warehouse Associate Typically Has:" list: Basic product and warehouse or delivery knowledge (1-3 years experience), attention to detail, organizational skills, ability to prioritize tasks, safety training on material handling and forklift driving, strong interpersonal, customer service, communication skills, physical ability to lift up to 60 lbs regularly, up to 100 lbs occasionally, prior computer knowledge/experience/skills.
- Benefits: "At DSG, We Offer Benefits Built for You:" includes ESOP, training/development, competitive compensation packages based on experience and potential, generous PTO and EML, comprehensive benefits package (medical, dental, vision, life insurance, short- and long-term disability, HSA with employer contribution), family planning and childcare savings (paid parental leave, adoption assistance, infertility assistance, Dependent Care FSA), retirement savings (401(k) with employer match and ESOP), discount on DSG-supplied products, paid volunteer hours in addition to PTO.
- Pay: The posting includes a paragraph at top: "Factors that may be used to determine your actual salary include your job specific skills, education, training, job location, number of years of experience related to this role and comparison to other employees already in this role." That's about pay determination. No specific salary figure. Should we include Pay section? The instruction: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." The posting does state factors that may be used to determine salary, so we can include Pay section with that content. It's not a specific number but it's substantive. So include Pay.
- Schedule: The posting states work typically performed between 7 am and 5 pm, Monday through Friday, but may vary on occasion according to business needs. That's schedule info. So include Schedule.
- About the role: Could be a brief paragraph describing role: "DSG is seeking a Warehouse Associate in our Rapid City, SD location. In this full time, hourly position..." plus maybe the mission statement. We'll include About the role.
We must not repeat job title as heading. So headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
But we need to decide which sections to combine. The posting includes both Requirements and Qualifications and Skills. Could separate them: Requirements (maybe experience, physical ability), Qualifications (knowledge, training), Skills (attention to detail, organizational, interpersonal, computer). However we must not create thin sections; prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. We could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section? But the instruction says use headings for those categories if content exists. We have content for each. Could we merge Requirements and Qualifications into a single "Requirements" section? Might be okay but we risk missing nuance. However we can create separate sections if they have substantive content. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we should avoid creating many sections with little content. Let's see the amount:
- Responsibilities: fairly long list.
- Requirements/Qualifications/Skills: each has several bullet points. Could combine into one "Requirements" section that includes all: experience, knowledge, physical ability, safety training, interpersonal skills, computer skills, attention to detail, organizational skills, ability to prioritize, lifting ability. That would be substantive.
- Benefits: substantive.
- Pay: substantive (factors).
- Schedule: substantive (hours).
- About the role: substantive (description, location, mission).
Thus we could have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. That's 6 sections. That seems reasonable.
We must not include Skills as separate if merged.
Now we need to format:
About the role
then...
for prose. For lists use- . We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting. Let's extract details: About the role: - DSG is seeking a Warehouse Associate in our Rapid City, SD location. - In this full time, hourly position, work is typically performed between the hours of 7 am and 5 pm, Monday through Friday, but may vary on occasion according to business needs. (Actually schedule info; but we might put schedule in its own section; but we can still mention location and full-time hourly.) - As a Warehouse Associate, you will be responsible for all aspects of warehouse operations, including but not limited to: order pulling, shipping & receiving, putting product away, handling and preparing product for shipment, and maintaining a safe, clean and orderly work environment. - At DSG, we are dedicated to building futures one job at a time. Starting with yours. As an ESOP, we are a community of peers, first and foremost. And we focus on cultivating an environment of respect, teamwork and growth. Where your career path is rich with possibilities. Where every success is shared. And where every challenge is overcome together. For more than a century, we’ve delivered more than supplies, we’ve offered true partnership and valuable solutions. By continuing to empower the future of our vendors and customers, we will empower a future of ongoing success for all of us. We could keep that as prose. Responsibilities: The list from "A Typical Day in the Life of a Warehouse Associate at DSG:" plus earlier bullet list. Need to combine without duplication. Let's list all duties: From earlier: order pulling, shipping & receiving, putting product away, handling and preparing product for shipment, maintaining a safe, clean and orderly work environment. From Typical Day list: - Accurately pull material from location to fill each order - Pack, label and put filled orders in proper locations for delivery - Operate gas and electric forklifts and riders - Operates wire measuring / cutting machine, cuts proper wire to proper length, mark tags with new wire amounts and fills racks when needed - Operate pipe machine, cuts pipe to proper length and depth - Sweep and mop floors, clean and dust shelves, sorts and dumps trash in appropriate bins - Maintains proficiency in computerized systems and other technologies as required - Handle calls for warehouse when needed - Use computer and/or RF scanner to check on status, availability and location of product - Notify inventory control about shortages or overages in inventory - Load delivery trucks as needed - Assist in Receiving as workload permits - Inspect trucks before delivery to ensure that they are in good working order and will pass road inspection, such as checking tires, lights, brakes, gas, oil, etc.; report any vehicle problems and/or set appointments to get problems fixed - Frequently communicate with fellow employee owners regarding how product should be loaded and to learn of any problems or concerns - Perform any other duties as assigned We should include all these as
- items. Ensure no duplication: order pulling appears both as generic and as "Accurately pull material from location to fill each order". We can keep both but maybe it's duplicate. To preserve all substantive info, we could keep both but it's redundant. Better to combine? The instruction: do not invent or summarize away detail. Duplication is okay? It says remove duplicated lines. So we should remove duplicated lines. So we need to deduplicate. Let's identify duplicates: - "order pulling" vs "Accurately pull material from location to fill each order" essentially same. We'll keep one phrasing maybe the more detailed. - "shipping & receiving" vs "Assist in Receiving as workload permits" and "Load delivery trucks as needed" etc. Not exact duplicates. - "putting product away" vs maybe covered by "put filled orders in proper locations for delivery" and "fills racks when needed". Not exact duplicate. - "handling and preparing product for shipment" vs "Pack, label and put filled orders in proper locations for delivery" similar. - "maintaining a safe, clean and orderly work environment" vs "Sweep and mop floors, clean and dust shelves, sorts and dumps trash in appropriate bins". Not duplicate. Thus we can create a unified list, using the detailed items from Typical Day plus the earlier generic ones if they add something not covered. Let's compile final list: 1. Accurately pull material from location to fill each order 2. Pack, label and put filled orders in proper locations for delivery 3. Operate gas and electric forklifts and riders 4. Operate wire measuring / cutting machine, cuts proper wire to proper length, mark tags with new wire amounts and fills racks when needed 5. Operate pipe machine, cuts pipe to proper length and depth 6. Sweep and mop floors, clean and dust shelves, sorts and dumps trash in appropriate bins 7. Maintain proficiency in computerized systems and other technologies as required 8. Handle calls for warehouse when needed 9. Use computer and/or RF scanner to check on status, availability and location of product 10. Notify inventory control about shortages or overages in inventory 11. Load delivery trucks as needed 12. Assist in Receiving as workload permits 13. Inspect trucks before delivery to ensure that they are in good working order and will pass road inspection (checking tires, lights, brakes, gas, oil, etc.); report any vehicle problems and/or set appointments to get problems fixed 14. Frequently communicate with fellow employee owners regarding how product should be loaded and to learn of any problems or concerns 15. Perform any other duties as assigned Additionally, we might add "maintaining a safe, clean and orderly work environment" as separate item (though covered by sweeping etc). But we can keep it as a general statement. We could also include "order pulling, shipping & receiving, putting product away, handling and preparing product for shipment" as a summary but we already have detailed tasks. To avoid losing info, we could keep a brief sentence before list: "Responsibilities include all aspects of warehouse operations, including but not limited to: order pulling, shipping & receiving, putting product away, handling and preparing product for shipment, and maintaining a safe, clean and orderly work environment." Then the detailed list. That preserves both. Now Requirements section: combine experience, knowledge, physical ability, safety training, interpersonal skills, computer skills, attention to detail, organizational skills, ability to prioritize, lifting ability. Let's list: - Basic product and warehouse or delivery knowledge that would normally be acquired in one to three years of applicable experience. - Attention to detail. - Organizational skills and an ability to prioritize tasks. - Safety training on material handling and forklift driving. - Strong interpersonal, customer service, and communication skills. - The physical ability to lift up to 60 lbs. on a regular basis, and up to 100 lbs. on an occasional basis. - Prior computer knowledge, experience and skills.
