Youth Engagement Specialist I - Maui
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We need to decide which sections to include based on content. We have: - About Liliʻuokalani Trust (description of organization). Could map to "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is typical heading for role description. But we have "Job Purpose". Could treat as "About the role". Or we could have separate sections: "About the organization" maybe not in list but we can use "About the role" for job purpose and responsibilities? The instruction says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should stick to those headings if we have content. We have: - Job Purpose: description of role purpose. Could go under "About the role". Could also be part of responsibilities. - Essential Responsibilities: multiple bullet points grouped under categories: Youth Engagement & Community Building, Program Facilitation, Enrollment & Administrative Support, Team & Community Contribution. That's responsibilities. - Practice Expectations: list of expectations (works well within structure, etc.) Could be part of responsibilities or maybe "Skills"? Might be considered "Skills" or "Qualifications"? Probably "Skills". - Qualifications: bullet list of education, experience, etc. - Key Required Competencies: list of competencies (Collaboration, Ethical Practice, Communication, Cultural Competence, Relationship Management, Interpersonal Skills, Relationship Building and Emotional Intelligence, Culture Competence). That's more like skills/competencies. - Organization Competencies: list of values etc. Might be part of "Skills" or "Qualifications"? Could be considered "Skills" as well. - Mental and Physical Demands: ability to lift 25 lbs, etc. Could be part of "Qualifications" or "Requirements". Might be "Requirements". - Terms and Conditions of Employment: includes policies, job title, reports to, FLSA status, aligned executive, Kipuka, department. This is metadata; we should fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we could include a short
for things like Reports To, FLSA Status, Department, etc. But we should not create a heading for them. - EEO statement: remove boilerplate. Thus we need to produce sections: About the role (Job Purpose), Responsibilities (Essential Responsibilities + Practice Expectations maybe), Requirements (Qualifications + Mental and Physical Demands?), Skills (Key Required Competencies + Organization Competencies?), Benefits/Pay/Schedule: none present, so omit. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all bullet points etc. We need to use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Thus for each section we will have heading
then content: either
for prose paragraphs, or
- for lists.
We need to decide how to split content.
Option: About the role: include Job Purpose paragraph.
Responsibilities: include the Essential Responsibilities (with subheadings? but we cannot add extra headings besides
? The instruction only says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings like
but likely we should stick to
only for sections. However we could keep subheadings as plain text or ? Not specified. Safer to avoid extra headings; we can just list all responsibilities as a single list, preserving the bullet points. The original had categories with bold headings; we could keep those as inside
- maybe. That's acceptable. Requirements: include Qualifications (education, experience, etc.) plus Mental and Physical Demands. Skills: include Key Required Competencies and Organization Competencies. We must not repeat the job title as a heading. So no
Youth Engagement Specialist I
. We need to preserve all substantive information: So we need to include all bullet points exactly as given, maybe rephrase? Not allowed to invent or summarize away detail; we should keep the text verbatim. We need to remove boilerplate: EEO statement, etc. Also remove duplicated lines: there may be duplicates like "Ability to work as part of a team and follow program structures and protocols" appears maybe elsewhere? Not sure. We'll produce HTML fragment. Let's extract content. About Liliʻuokalani Trust paragraph: "Liliʻuokalani Trust (LT) is a private operating foundation committed to the social, physical, and spiritual well-being of Native Hawaiian youth and their ʻohana. LT delivers culturally grounded, healing-centered programs across the pae ʻaina through a range of service settings meet youth and families where they are. Trust programs reflect an assets-based philosophy that honors Hawaiian values, elevates youth strengths, and builds pathways to passion, purpose, and prosperity for all youth we serve." Job Purpose paragraph: "The Youth Engagement Specialist I (YES I) is a frontline youth development practitioner who supports safe, welcoming, and engaging environments for youth across Liliʻuokalani Trust (LT) programs and sites. The YES I focuses on building strong, trusting relationships, supporting youth participation and general engagement, assisting with program facilitation, and maintaining operational reliability within established program structures. The YES I works directly with youth involved in programming, offering guidance and support, and may also be asked to provide administrative assistance as needed. YES workers are an integral part of the holistic wraparound supports provided throughout Liliʻuokalani Trust programs for youth and their families." We could combine About the trust and Job Purpose under About the role? The heading "About the role" maybe should include Job Purpose only; but we could also include the trust description as part of About the role? The instruction says usefor section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid adding other content like a brief description of the organization under About the role. I'd include both paragraphs under About the role.
