for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail.
We need to format lists appropriately.
For About the role: we have prose: "A position in the Missouri Department of Corrections is more than a job. It's a calling. Corrections employees transform lives, equipping Missourians in the criminal justice system with the skills they need to contribute to their communities, inside and outside our walls. More than 95 percent of people who enter the prison system ultimately are released. We want to make sure they’re good neighbors. We offer great benefits!" plus maybe the tradition paragraph: "The Missouri Department of Corrections is proud to have a tradition of promotion from within for employees looking for and seeking distinctive career paths. As you work for the department, we invite you to consider your goals and make choices to actively head toward them. We seek to recognize employees who serve with distinction."
We can combine into one
or multiple
. Probably one
with both sentences.
For Responsibilities: we need to break into list items. The responsibilities text is a long paragraph with many semicolons. We could split by semicolons into list items. But we must preserve all detail; we can keep as a single
but instruction says use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Since responsibilities are a list of duties, we should make a list. We'll split by semicolons and maybe also by periods? The text includes many semicolons separating duties. We'll create
- for each duty segment.
Let's extract duties:

We need to split by semicolons, but also there are some periods inside like "Types/edits a variety of material, which may contain technical or specialized terminology;" Actually there is a comma after "material," then "which may contain..." then semicolon after "terminology". We'll just split by semicolon.
