We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. We need to parse the posting. Key sections: - Summary Statement: description of role. Could be "About the role". Use

About the role

with

containing summary. - Required Knowledge, Experience, And Training: includes Juris Doctorate degree, etc. Could be under Requirements or Qualifications. We'll decide. - Licensing And Other Requirements: licensed active member Idaho State Bar, driver's license. - Special Requirements: background checks etc. - Why the City of Boise? benefits list. - Essential Functions: list of duties. - Additional Required Knowledge, Experience, And Training: knowledge of principles, abilities. - Working Conditions: physical efforts, work environment. We need to decide which sections to output. We have Benefits: list of benefits (Zero-cost premium medical coverage, PERSI retirement etc). So we can have Benefits section. Pay: Not mentioned explicitly; only says offers made within posted hiring range, but no numbers. We should not create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It says "offers are made within the posted hiring range." No actual numbers. So we should not include Pay. Schedule: Not mentioned explicitly; only says works outside typical 8am-5pm as required. That's schedule info? Might be considered schedule. It says "This position works: outside of, or extends beyond, a typical 8am to 5pm M-F work week, as required." That's schedule info. So we could include Schedule section with that statement. Qualifications: Could combine education, licensing, etc. But we have Requirements section for knowledge, experience, training. Qualifications could be education and licensing. However we must avoid duplication. Let's think. We have: - Summary Statement (About the role) - Responsibilities (Essential Functions) -> list of duties. - Requirements (Required Knowledge, Experience, And Training + Additional Required Knowledge, Experience, And Training) maybe combine. - Qualifications (Juris Doctorate, licensing, driver's license, background checks) maybe. - Skills (maybe from abilities: interpersonal, public speaking, legal research, etc.) - Benefits (list) - Schedule (work outside typical hours) We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to ensure we preserve all substantive information. Let's extract. Summary Statement: "Play a key role in supporting the City of Boise’s commitment to fair and effective justice. As an Attorney I, you will represent the City in prosecuting misdemeanor and infraction cases while ensuring each matter is evaluated with integrity and sound legal judgment. This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to build courtroom experience and grow under the mentorship of experienced attorneys.

To ensure internal equity and alignment with the approved budget for this position, offers are made within the posted hiring range. Although the hiring range is fixed, employees receive an exceptional benefits and total rewards package that enhances the overall value of employment with the City of Boise." We'll put that in

. Responsibilities (Essential Functions): list of duties. We'll extract bullet points. Essential Functions list: - Performs routine tasks and assists others in more complex tasks. - Handles criminal cases in court. - Represents the City of Boise at all levels of the criminal process, including arraignments, pre-trial conferences, motion hearings, bench and jury trials, post sentencing hearings and appeals. - Handles a significant number of misdemeanor criminal and civil infraction cases. - Prepares files and reviews cases, documents, criminal histories, factual reports and applicable laws for all stages of court proceedings. - Writes and replies to all relevant motions. - Conducts a criminal background check for each defendant, evaluates strengths and weaknesses, and reviews the defendant's driver's license status when necessary. - Synthesizes factual reports provided by law enforcement and witnesses. - Inspects and redacts evidence in preparation for disclosure. - Discloses relevant and legal evidence to the defense parties. - Provides sentencing recommendations based on criminal history and the defendant's conduct, develops an offer of settlement and negotiates with defense counsel to reach a joint resolution. - Communicates with pro se defendants, defense attorneys, victims, the victim's witness, police officers, judges and clerks in a timely manner. - Prepares unresolved cases for trial. - Researches and writes memoranda and briefs on various criminal issues. - Responds to various defense motions, such as motions to suppress or motions to dismiss, and files preemptive motions on behalf of the city. - Responds to inquiries from the general public or stakeholders in the criminal justice system. - Assigns tasks to support staff and successive attorneys as part of case preparation. - Performs other duties as assigned. - Nothing in this job description restricts management's right to assign or reassign duties and responsibilities to this position at any time. We'll put each as

  • . Requirements: combine Required Knowledge, Experience, And Training and Additional Required Knowledge, Experience, And Training. Required Knowledge, Experience, And Training: - Juris Doctorate degree from an ABA-accredited university. Additional Required Knowledge, Experience, And Training: - Knowledge Of principles of criminal law, court rules and trial procedures; rules of evidence, professional conduct and legal ethics; computer usage and related software. - Ability To use strong interpersonal skills, including working collaboratively with other prosecuting attorneys; speak effectively in public; exhibit proficiency in legal research and writing; interpret various statutes and code sections; understand relevant case law; negotiate effectively; write legal briefs and motions skillfully; communicate effectively in the English language at a level necessary for efficient job performance; perform all essential functions as assigned by an authorized employee, supervisor and/or manager with or without a reasonable accommodation. - Individuals must be capable of operating vehicles safely and have an acceptable driving record. We'll list as
  • . Qualifications: Licensing And Other Requirements + Special Requirements. Licensing And Other Requirements: - Licensed and active member in good standing with the Idaho State Bar, or eligible for admission to the Idaho State Bar pursuant to Idaho Bar Commission Rule 206 ("Admission Based on Practice Experience"). - Valid state-issued driver’s license. Special Requirements: - Applicants Must Be Able To Pass City of Boise background check processes which includes a criminal history check and reference checks in accordance with the City of Boise Hiring Process Regulations - Driving Record Check - Education Verification - Criminal Justice Information System background check (CJIS) - Hybrid Work Eligible We'll list as
  • . Skills: maybe from abilities list (interpersonal, public speaking, legal research, etc.) but we already included many in Requirements. Could create Skills section for abilities like interpersonal, public speaking, legal research, negotiation, etc. But we might duplicate. Better to put those under Requirements as knowledge/abilities. The instruction: Use sections only when posting has real specific content. We have content for Skills (abilities). Could create Skills section with bullet list of abilities: strong interpersonal skills, public speaking, legal research/writing, interpreting statutes, understanding case law, negotiation, writing briefs/motions, English communication, etc. However we already listed those under Required Knowledge, Experience, And Training as abilities. Might be okay to keep them there and not create separate Skills. But we need to decide which sections to include. We have many sections already: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Schedule. That's six sections. Could also add Skills if we want, but we risk thin sections. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we keep Requirements to include knowledge, experience, training, and abilities. Qualifications for licensing etc. Benefits separate. Schedule separate. Thus we will not create Skills section. Now Benefits: list from "Why the City of Boise?": - Zero-cost premium medical coverage for you and your family - PERSI retirement plus employer-matched 401(k)/457b - 10 hours vacation/month (grows with tenure), 12 paid holidays, and 8 hours sick leave/month - 10 weeks paid parental leave - $500 annual wellbeing incentive - Tuition reimbursement and free local bus pass - Basic life and long-term disability insurance at no cost We'll put as
  • . Schedule: statement: "This position works: outside of, or extends beyond, a typical 8am to 5pm M-F work week, as required." Also maybe mention hybrid work eligible? Actually Hybrid Work Eligible is under Special Requirements. Could include in Schedule? But schedule is about work hours. We'll include the statement. Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. We'll produce:
