Workday Financials Functional Analyst (Financial & Procurement) - Hybrid
for each heading. Only include sections that have real specific content. Need to parse the posting.
We have Role Summary (intro) but not a heading. The page already shows job title; we should not repeat job title as heading. We need to include sections based on content.
We have "About The Role" bullet list of duties. That can be Responsibilities? Actually "About The Role" is description of role. Could map to "About the role" heading. Then responsibilities maybe separate? The bullet list includes many duties; we can treat as Responsibilities.
We have "About You" which includes qualifications, requirements, skills. We need to split into Requirements, Qualifications, Skills perhaps. But we must not create thin sections; prefer few substantive sections. Could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one? But spec says use headings for those categories if content exists. We have content for Requirements (experience, knowledge, degree, certification). Also Skills (communication, interpersonal, research, prioritization, etc.). Could separate.
We have Company Benefits And Perks with list: Bonus Program, 401k Retirement, Medical, Dental, Vision, Basic Life, Short Term Disability and Long-Term Disability Coverage, Paid Parental Leave, Support and Community Involvement, 14 Paid Company Holidays, Unlimited Paid Time Off for Exempt Employees, 96 Hours of Sick Time and 120 Hours of Vacation for Non-Exempt Employees Accrued Each Year. Also diversity statement but that's boilerplate EEO; we should remove EEO boilerplate. The diversity statement is EEO; we should remove. Also "Company Overview" maybe not needed as a section; but could be part of About the role? Probably not needed; it's company overview but not required heading. We can omit.
Pay Range: we have specific numbers: USD $93,370.00/Yr. - USD $153,400.00/Yr. So we can include Pay section.
Schedule: The posting mentions Hybrid position, expectation to be in office according to team needs, work from home when not on-site, only considering candidates within commutable distance to Hub locations, no relocation assistance. That's schedule info (hybrid). So we can include Schedule section.
We must not include boilerplate like cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Remove "Job Applicant Privacy Notice" etc.
We must not repeat job title as heading. So no heading for Workday Financials Functional Analyst.
We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; none present.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep details like specific modules, tasks, etc.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We need to decide which content goes under which heading.
Let's outline:
- About the role: maybe a brief prose summary from Role Summary? The Role Summary paragraph: "Do you enjoy providing end user support, crafting and maintaining dashboards and revenue reports, and doing in-depth issue research and testing? Are you interested in being part of a mission-driven company willing to invest in its people and infrastructure? If yes, this might be the role for you! The Workday Financials Functional Analyst (Financial & Procurement) is part of the team that owns administering, maintaining, and optimizing the Workday systems and processes across multiple teams: Accounting, Finance, and Procurement. You will provide internal support and perform configuration and maintenance updates for Financial Management (FIN), Financial Planning (PLNF), Projects (PRJT), Expenses (EXP), Procurement (PRO), Accounting Center (ACC) and Strategic Sourcing (SRCEXP). Your collaboration and interpersonal skills will be key to your success. This is a Hybrid position. We value in-office collaboration and meaningful interactions, so expect that you will be able to be in the office according to team needs. When you are not working on-site, you will be working from your home office. We are only considering candidates within a commutable distance to one of the Hub locations and are not offering relocation assistance at this time."
But note that Hybrid position details also belong to Schedule section. However we could keep some prose under About the role and then Schedule separate.
We must not repeat job title as heading; but we can mention it in prose.
Thus About the role heading
About the role
with containing the Role Summary paragraph (maybe trimmed to not include hybrid details? but we can keep hybrid details? Might be better to keep hybrid details in Schedule section. But we can keep some generic description.
Let's extract core role description: "Do you enjoy providing end user support, crafting and maintaining dashboards and revenue reports, and doing in-depth issue research and testing? Are you interested in being part of a mission-driven company willing to invest in its people and infrastructure? If yes, this might be the role for you! The Workday Financials Functional Analyst (Financial & Procurement) is part of the team that owns administering, maintaining, and optimizing the Workday systems and processes across multiple teams: Accounting, Finance, and Procurement.

Your collaboration and interpersonal skills will be key to your success."
That seems good.
Then Responsibilities: we have bullet list under "About The Role" (the second heading). Actually the posting has "Position Details About The Role" then a list of duties. Those are responsibilities. So we can put those under

We need to decide headings. Could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one? But spec says use headings for those categories if content exists. We have both. Could split: Requirements (experience, knowledge, degree, certification) and Skills (communication, interpersonal, research, prioritization, teamwork, learning, etc.). Qualifications maybe similar to Requirements; but we can treat Requirements as the mandatory/experience/education/certification, and Qualifications as preferred? However the spec says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe we combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section called "Requirements" that includes both mandatory and preferred. Then Skills separate.
Thus:
Requirements
with - for each item that is about experience, knowledge, degree, certification, familiarity, troubleshooting, support/training, etc. But many of those are also skills. However we can put all About You bullets under Requirements, except the interpersonal/communication etc maybe under Skills.
But we need to avoid thin sections; we can have two sections: Requirements and Skills.
