ASSISTANT DIRECTOR OF YOUTH HOME - 40000771

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes "General Description" which could be About the role. Also Duties And Responsibilities, Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities, Minimum Education And Experience Requirements, Special Certifications And Licenses Requirements, Physical Demands, Unavoidable Hazards, Standard Clauses, Essential Safety Functions, Americans With Disabilities Act Compliance, Background Check Statement. However we must only include sections when posting has real, specific content. Many sections have content. Need to decide which to include: About the role (General Description), Responsibilities (Duties And Responsibilities), Requirements (Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities? Actually Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities is more like qualifications; Minimum Education And Experience Requirements is also qualifications; Special Certifications And Licenses Requirements; Physical Demands; Unavoidable Hazards; Standard Clauses; Essential Safety Functions; ADA; Background Check. But we should prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine some: maybe "Qualifications" includes education, experience, certifications, physical demands? But guidelines: Use headings for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. They gave examples but we can use others if needed? They said use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It seems they expect those headings; but we can also use other headings if needed? Probably stick to those. So we need to map content to those headings. We have Pay: Hiring Range $80,243.00 - $108,280.00. So we can include Pay section. Schedule: Job Type FULL-TIME, (37.5 HOURS, EXEMPT). So schedule: 37.5 hours per week, full-time, exempt. Benefits: Not mentioned explicitly. No benefits details. So we should not include Benefits. About the role: General Description. Responsibilities: Duties And Responsibilities. Requirements: Could include Minimum Education And Experience Requirements, Special Certifications And Licenses Requirements, Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities? Actually Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities is more like qualifications. But we have both Requirements and Qualifications headings. Could put Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities under Qualifications. Minimum Education And Experience under Requirements. Special Certifications under Requirements as well. Physical Demands, Unavoidable Hazards, Standard Clauses, Essential Safety Functions, ADA, Background Check: maybe we can include under a section like "Additional Information" but not in allowed headings. Could we omit? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we might omit those less critical sections if they are not required headings. However we must preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we cannot drop substantive info. We need to include all substantive info somewhere. If we omit a section, we lose that info. So we need to include them somehow, maybe within existing sections (e.g., add a paragraph under Responsibilities or Requirements). But we must not create headings not listed unless needed? The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but suggests using those. Safer to stick to those headings and put all info under them. Thus we can have:

We should not repeat job title. Also remove boilerplate like "Learn more at www.dconc.gov." maybe considered navigation? It's not boilerplate but maybe okay to keep? It's not essential? It's a link; could be considered navigation. Probably drop. Also remove "Posting is subject to close without prior notification." maybe standard clause; but it's part of posting. Could keep under Requirements? Might be considered boilerplate. I'd drop. We need to preserve all substantive information: The general description, duties, knowledge/skills/abilities, min education/experience, certifications, physical demands, unavoidable hazards, standard clauses, essential safety functions, ADA, background check, pay, schedule. We must not include cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. The ADA statement is not boilerplate? It's a statement about compliance; maybe keep as it's substantive. The EEO statement is not present. The "Durham County is an Equal Opportunity Employer." is present under ADA Compliance? Actually there is a line: "Durham County is an Equal Opportunity Employer." under ADA Compliance. That's EEO statement; we should remove that as boilerplate. So we need to strip that line. Also "Background Check Statement" maybe keep. We need to ensure we don't include duplicated lines. Now craft HTML. We need to convert duties into list items. There are many duties sentences separated by periods. We'll split each sentence into

. Ensure we keep all content. Let's extract duties from "Duties And Responsibilities" paragraph. It's a long paragraph with sentences separated by periods. We'll create list items for each sentence.
