We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes summary about EDRP, qualifications, duties, work schedule, etc. We need headings: for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use only when content present.
We need to preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate. No job title heading. No Job ID. No application instructions. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. The posting includes summary about EDRP, qualifications, duties, work schedule, etc.
We need to decide sections: Could have "About the role" (summary), "Qualifications" (basic requirements, licensure, etc.), "Responsibilities" (duties), "Schedule" (work schedule), maybe "Benefits" (EDRP info). Pay not mentioned. Skills maybe part of qualifications but we could include "Skills" if there are KSAs listed. The posting includes KSAs under Qualifications. Could put them under "Skills". Or we could include them under Qualifications.
We must not create sections with filler like "not specified". So only include sections with real content.
Let's extract content:
Summary: "This position is eligible for Education Debt Reduction Program (EDRP) - a student loan payment reimbursement program. You must meet specific eligibility requirements per VHA policy and submit your EDRP application within four months of appointment. Program Approval - award amount (up to $200 -000) & eligibility period (one to five years) are determined by the VHA Education Loan Repayment Services program office after review of the EDRP application. Former EDRP participants ineligible to apply."
That's about benefits (EDRP). Could be under Benefits.
Qualifications: includes Basic Requirements: US Citizenship, Education Requirement (Doctor of Audiology etc.), Licensure Requirement, English Language Proficiency, Grade Determinations (GS-12), Physical Requirements reference.
Also includes KSAs (Skills). Could be under Skills.
Duties: list of duties under Clinical Functions, Education, Administrative.
Work Schedule: Monday to Friday - 7:30am to 4:00pm Telework: Not Available Virtual: This is not a virtual position.
Also includes location: Kona CBOC in Kona - Hawaii within Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Service Line - VA Pacific Islands Health Care System (VAPIHCS) - may support other VAPIHCS locations as needed.
Also includes Functional Statement #: 10207-F Relocation/Recruitment Incentives: Not Authorized EDRP Authorized: Former EDRP participants ineligible to apply for incentive Contact VHAV21 CCOE EDRP VHAV21CCOEEDRP@va.gov - the EDRP Coordinator for questions/assistance Learn more Permanent Change of Station (PCS): Not Authorized
We should keep location maybe under About the role or Responsibilities? Probably under About the role.
We need to avoid duplication: The summary already mentions EDRP; later there is also EDRP Authorized etc. We'll combine.
We must not include application instructions (like "Contact ... for questions/assistance Learn more")? That's maybe considered contact info; but it's not exactly application instruction. However it's contact for EDRP coordinator. Might be considered part of Benefits? Might keep as part of Benefits? The instruction says remove application instructions. This is not exactly application instruction but contact for questions. Might be okay to keep? Safer to drop contact line? The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." The contact line is not exactly application instruction but could be considered contact for assistance. Might be considered not essential? However it's substantive info for EDRP. I'd keep it maybe under Benefits as contact.
But to be safe, maybe keep it as part of Benefits section.
