Assistant Director - Office of Information Technology
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; fold minor metadata into 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. Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences.
We need to extract substantive content: Position Summary, Principal Duties (list), Responsibilities And Authority (maybe part of responsibilities), Physical Demands/Working Environment (maybe not needed unless it's substantive; but it's not a required heading; we could include under Responsibilities or maybe a separate section like Working Conditions? Not in allowed headings list. We can embed in
under Responsibilities or maybe under a generic section like "Details". But headings limited to those listed; we can choose to not create a section for physical demands if not needed. However we must preserve all substantive information. We could include physical demands within a
under Responsibilities or maybe under a "Qualifications" section? Probably better to include under Responsibilities as a paragraph.
We have Salary range: $135K to $155K. That's Pay info, so we should create a Pay section with that info.
We have Benefits? Not mentioned explicitly. No benefits listed. So we should not create Benefits section.
Schedule? Not mentioned besides occasional evening/weekend work; but that's under Physical Demands/Working Environment. Not a explicit schedule. We could maybe include Schedule section if we have info: "Occasional evening and/or weekend work is required." That's schedule info. So we could create a Schedule section with that.
But the instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. We have Pay stated (salary range). Schedule: occasional evening/weekend work is required, that's schedule info. So we can include Schedule.
Benefits: not stated, so omit.
We need sections: About the role (maybe Position Summary), Responsibilities (Principal Duties), Requirements (maybe Qualifications/Knowledge/Skills/Education/Experience), Skills (maybe separate but could combine with Qualifications). However we need to avoid thin sections. We could combine Qualifications and Skills into one section called Qualifications (or Requirements). But we have separate headings allowed: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can choose to use About the role (Position Summary), Responsibilities (Principal Duties), Requirements (maybe combine Qualifications/Skills/Education/Experience), Pay, Schedule. That's enough.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We need to preserve all substantive information: include Position Summary text, list of Principal Duties (maybe as
- ), include Responsibilities And Authority text (maybe as part of Responsibilities), include Physical Demands/Working Environment (maybe as a paragraph under Responsibilities or separate? Could be under Responsibilities as a paragraph). Include Qualifications/Knowledge/Skills/Education/Experience (list). Include Salary range. Include occasional evening/weekend work (Schedule). Also include maybe "Must have excellent verbal and written communication skills." etc.
We need to remove boilerplate: lines like "For your privacy and security, when applying for a job, never provide your social security number..." etc. Also "To use this website, you must accept and comply with our Terms of Service." "Report This Listing" etc. Also "Apply Here: https://..." etc. Also "About The Employer" maybe we can keep? It's substantive about mission; but not required heading; could be included under About the role? Might be considered part of About the role. But we already have Position Summary; we could incorporate About The Employer as additional paragraph under About the role. However we must not duplicate. The About The Employer is separate but we can merge.
We need to ensure we don't include duplicated lines.
