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. Remove boilerplate: EEO, equal opportunity, scam warning, duplicated lines, application instructions (How To Apply). Also remove "Supplemental Information" maybe not needed if it's just placeholder? It says "Supplemental Information How To Apply". That's application instructions; we should remove. Also remove "Conditions Of Employment" maybe includes background investigation, E-Verify, etc. That's substantive? It's about employment conditions; we could keep but maybe it's boilerplate? It's specific: background investigation, E-Verify, waive into CO Bar proof, flexible work arrangements, office 3 days per week, non-classified, not subject to appeal rights. That's substantive. Keep.
We need to decide sections: About the role? Could be "About the role" maybe from "Who We Are" and "Description Of Job". But we must not repeat job title. We can have sections: About the Agency (Who We Are), Role Description (Description Of Job + What You Will Do), Responsibilities (maybe from What You Will Do), Requirements (Minimum Qualifications), Skills (Essential Skills), Benefits, Pay, Schedule, Conditions of Employment (maybe separate). But we must only include sections when posting has real specific content. All these have content.
We must not include headings with filler like "commensurate with experience". Pay section: we have salary ranges and note about salary set commensurate with qualifications. That's specific. So include Pay.
Schedule: flexible work arrangements, office 3 days per week, possibility for additional flexibility after training. That's specific.
Benefits: list specifics.
We must not include duplicated lines. Ensure we don't repeat same info.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
Let's extract content.
Who We Are: paragraphs about Office of Attorney General, vision, core values, DEI.
Description Of Job: details about Financial & Community Safety Unit, R&R section, work.
What You Will Do: details about representing Division of Securities, litigation, administrative law, advising clients, etc.
Minimum Qualifications, Substitutions, Conditions Of Employment & Appeal Rights: includes "WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR" bullet? Actually it's a paragraph: Qualified applicants must be admitted to Colorado Bar or eligible to waive, etc. Also mention writing sample requirement.
Essential Skills For This Position: list of abilities (Ability to manage a heavy caseload, Comfortable litigating..., Excellent research..., Demonstrated ability..., Enjoys wearing different hats..., Committed..., Enthusiastic...). These are separated by no punctuation but we can treat as list items.
Conditions Of Employment: includes background investigation, E-Verify, waive into CO Bar proof, flexible work arrangements, office 3 days per week, possibility for additional flexibility after training, non-classified, not subject to appeal rights.
Benefits: list: Public Service Loan Forgiveness, free access to on-site fitness center, excellent work-life programs (flexible work schedules, professional development opportunities, employee discount program), employer-paid mental health and counseling services through Colorado State Employee Assistance Program, employer-paid annual attorney registration dues, employer-provided access to professional development training and CLE through PLI, Department of Law University and other entities.
Pay: Salary note: Attorney compensation model, salary range listed, salary set commensurate with qualifications and compliance with Equal Pay for Equal Work Act. Attorneys with less than 3 years experience: AAG I salary range $89,964-$119,047/annually. Attorneys with more than 3 years experience: AAG II salary range $102,099 - $136,558/annually. Salary paid biweekly.
Schedule: flexible work arrangements, office 3 days per week, possibility for additional flexibility after training.
We also have "This recruitment may be used to fill multiple attorney positions within the Revenue & Regulatory Law section at Department of Law." That's substantive; could be included in About the role or Description.
We must not include application instructions (How To Apply). Also remove "Supplemental Information". Also remove duplicated lines like "For more information about admission to the Colorado Bar please review information on the Colorado Supreme Court Office of Attorney Regulation Counsel." appears twice; we can keep once maybe but it's boilerplate? It's about admission; could be considered part of qualifications. Might keep but it's somewhat instructional. Might be considered boilerplate but it's specific info about admission. However it's repeated; we can keep one instance.
We must not include EEO/equal opportunity boilerplate. There's a line: "The Office of the Attorney General offers challenging, interesting, and meaningful work. We are an equal opportunity employer and believe that a diverse work force adds quality and perspective to the services we provide to the public. Candidates with diverse qualities and backgrounds are encouraged to apply." That's EEO boilerplate; remove.
Also remove "We Embrace Flexibility", "We Are Committed to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion", "We Have Strong Core Values", "We are Committed to Developing our Attorneys", "We Offer Excellent Benefits" (these are part of WHY WORK FOR US). Actually those are benefits and culture details; we might keep some as Benefits section but the headings are repetitive. We already have Benefits section with specifics; we can incorporate those specifics. The "WHY WORK FOR US" section includes many benefits details we already captured. So we can discard the headings and keep the benefit specifics.
We must not include "ADAAA Requests" maybe it's about accommodations; could be considered substantive but it's boilerplate? It's about disability accommodation; could be kept but it's generic. Might be considered boilerplate; but it's specific about process. However it's likely considered EEO/legal boilerplate; we can remove.
Thus final HTML: sections: About the Agency (Who We Are), Role Overview (Description Of Job + What You Will Do), Responsibilities (maybe from What You Will Do), Requirements (Minimum Qualifications), Skills (Essential Skills), Benefits, Pay, Schedule, Conditions of Employment.
But we must avoid too many thin sections; prefer few substantive sections. Could combine some.
Maybe sections: About the Agency, Position Details (includes description and responsibilities), Qualifications (includes minimum qualifications and skills), Compensation & Benefits (Pay + Benefits + Schedule), Employment Conditions.
But we need to follow instruction: use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So they expect those headings. We can use those exact headings if content exists.
Thus we will output:
About the role
with prose summarizing Who We Are and Description Of Job? But we must not invent or summarize away detail; we need to preserve ALL substantive information. If we put prose, we must include all details, not summarize. That's tough: we could list details as paragraphs preserving original sentences.
We can include multiple
under each heading, each containing substantive sentences.
We must not repeat job title as heading.
Let's craft:
About the role
The Office of the Attorney General/Department of Law is the “People’s Lawyer.” The Attorney General, Phil Weiser, was elected by the people of Colorado and is the State’s chief lawyer and law enforcement official. Our vision for the Department of Law is: “Together, we serve Colorado and its people, advancing the rule of law, protecting our democracy and promoting justice for all.” Our core values and commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion drive our actions and demonstrate our focus on being principled public servants who are innovative and better together.
The Revenue & Regulatory Law (R&R) section represents state regulatory agencies, including the Department of Regulatory Agencies (DORA), the Department of Revenue, the Department of Agriculture, and the State Personnel Board. R&R is the largest section in the Department of Law, comprised of 110 team members who tackle a diverse array of legal challenges for nearly 100 state agencies, boards, commissions, and divisions. The work of the R&R section is critical to ensuring all licensees are providing fair services to Coloradans and protecting consumers through oversight of these industries and professions to protect public health and safety.
The Financial & Community Safety Unit is one of 12 units within the R&R section. This unit represents the Colorado Division of Securities, and other programs within the R&R Section, including the Division of Banking and Division of Financial Services. This work promotes consumer protection through regulating, licensing, and taking disciplinary action against the respective licensees, and pursuing securities fraud matters on behalf of the Securities Commissioner.

Thus:
