for headings. Use - for lists. Use
for prose. Remove boilerplate, navigation, EEO, etc. Keep all substantive info.
We need to parse the job description.
Key sections:
- Job Description paragraph: "We are seeking a Workday Report Writer to design, develop, and maintain custom Workday reports and operational dashboards that provide meaningful insights for business leaders. The ideal candidate will have strong experience creating Advanced, Matrix, Composite, and custom reports, developing Calculated Fields, and building Discovery Boards to support HR, Payroll, Finance, and Operations."
That's about the role.
- Responsibilities: bullet list (multiple lines). We'll list each bullet.
- Essential Skills: list.
- Additional Skills & Qualifications: list.
- Work Environment: paragraph about onsite presence, flexibility, culture, etc.
- Job Type & Location: "This is a Permanent position based out of Bethesda, MD."
- Pay And Benefits: paragraph about pay range $100k-$150k/yr, mention competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package.
- Workplace Type: "This is a fully onsite position in Bethesda,MD."
- Application Deadline: "This position is anticipated to close on Sep 29, 2026."
- About Aston Carter: paragraph about company.
We need to include sections only if real content. So we can have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Essential Skills, Additional Skills & Qualifications, Work Environment, Job Type & Location, Pay And Benefits, Workplace Type, Application Deadline, About Aston Carter.
But we may combine some similar: Job Type & Location and Workplace Type maybe redundant; but we can keep both if they have distinct info. However Workplace Type repeats location; we could merge. But rule: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine Job Type & Location and Workplace Type into one section "Job Details". But headings must be from list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Actually the instruction: "use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It gives examples but not strict limited to those? It says e.g. So we can use those headings. Probably we should stick to those headings. So we need to map content to those headings.
We have:
- About the role: intro paragraph.
- Responsibilities: list.
- Requirements / Qualifications / Skills: we have Essential Skills, Additional Skills & Qualifications, Bachelor's degree, etc. Could combine into Requirements or Skills.
- Benefits: we have comprehensive benefits package mentioned.
- Pay: pay range.
- Schedule: work environment mentions flexibility regarding commute times and daily schedules (e.g., 10-6, 8-4). Also fully onsite. So schedule info.
We also have Job Type & Location (Permanent, Bethesda, MD). Could be part of About the role or separate but not in list. Could embed in About the role or maybe under Requirements? Probably we can include location in About the role paragraph.
Application Deadline: maybe not a standard heading; could be omitted? But we must preserve ALL substantive information; cannot drop. Could put under About the role as a note? Or maybe under a heading like "Additional Information". But not in allowed list. However instruction: "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., meaning those are examples, not exclusive. So we can add other headings if needed, but better to stick to those. However we need to preserve all info; we could include Application Deadline under About the role as a sentence.
About Aston Carter: could be under About the role or separate "About the company". Not in list but could be okay.
We need to avoid boilerplate like EEO etc. Remove those paragraphs.
Let's extract substantive content:
