We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes summary, duty location, position may be filled at GS-11 etc. We need to include sections only when there is real content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to parse content: The posting includes:
- Summary: duty location: Office of Counsel - DLA Weapons Support (Columbus), Whitehall, OH.
- Position may be filled at GS-11: $77,926 - $101,309; GS-12: $93,400 - $121,422; GS-13: $111,065 - $144,386.
- Duties: list of duties under "Provides Legal Advice And Services" etc.
- Requirements: Conditions of employment list: Must be a U.S. Citizen, Excepted Service, Tour of Duty: Flexible, Security Requirements: Non-Critical Sensitive with Secret Access, appointment subject to suitability, FLSA Exempt, Selective Service requirement, Recruitment Incentives: Not Authorized, Bargaining Unit Status: No, Financial Disclosure Requirement: Required, Selectees required to have REAL ID, etc.
- Qualifications: detailed qualifications required: first professional law degree, bar membership, etc. Then grade-level specific qualifications.
- Principal Selection Factors: list of factors.
- Education: transcripts etc.
- Additional information: Excepted Service Position, Veterans Info, etc.
- Drug-Free Workplace Policy.
- Advisory about CBD etc.
- Additional guidance on writing resume.
- Candidates should be committed...
- Benefits: mention comprehensive benefits package, link to federal benefits.
We need to decide which sections to include: About the role (maybe summary/duty location). Responsibilities (duties). Requirements (conditions of employment). Qualifications (education, bar, grade-level specifics). Skills (maybe principal selection factors). Benefits (benefits package). Pay (salary ranges). Schedule (tour of duty flexible). We must not include sections with placeholder or vague content like "commensurate with experience". Pay section: we have actual salary ranges for each grade, so we can include Pay. Schedule: we have Tour of Duty: Flexible, so we can include Schedule.
We must not include Benefits if only vague statement? There is mention: "A career with the U.S. government provides employees with a comprehensive benefits package. As a federal employee, you and your family will have access to a range of benefits that are designed to make your federal career very rewarding. Opens in a new windowLearn more about federal benefits." That's somewhat generic but still mentions benefits package and link. It's not placeholder like "not specified". It's substantive enough? It says comprehensive benefits package, link to federal benefits. I'd include Benefits section.
We must not include Skills if we don't have explicit skills list; we have Principal Selection Factors which could be considered skills. We'll put that under Skills section.
We must not repeat job title as heading.
We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers.
We must remove boilerplate like EEO, etc. The posting includes some EEO? Not seen. There's some legal stuff but we can keep relevant.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting, but we can format them into lists.
We must not include duplicated lines.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
