We need to output HTML fragment with sections only if real content. The posting includes duties, responsibilities (the duties text), requirements (conditions of employment), qualifications, maybe benefits? There's mention of benefits in generic statement: "A career with the U.S. government provides employees with a comprehensive benefits package." That's generic, not specific. According to rules, we should not create Benefits section unless posting actually states them (specific). It only says generic, not specific benefits. So we should not include Benefits. Pay/Schedule: there is work schedule description: "Work schedule: May be required to work Monday through Friday to include occasional weekends..." Also mention compressed/flexible schedule not available. So we have schedule specifics. So we can include a Schedule section with that content. Pay: no specific pay mentioned. So omit Pay. We need headings:

for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should not repeat job title. The posting didn't have an explicit "About the role" but we have duties. Could use Responsibilities for duties. Could also have a short intro paragraph maybe? But we need to preserve all substantive info. The duties text is long; we can put under Responsibilities as
  • items? The duties are prose sentences; we could break into list items for each duty? The rule: Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. The duties are not explicitly a list but we can convert each sentence into
    • . That would preserve info. Similarly for Requirements (conditions of employment) we can list. Qualifications also list. We need to avoid boilerplate like cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. The posting includes lots of generic statements about benefits, CTAP, etc. Those are boilerplate; we should remove them. Also remove duplicated lines. We need to preserve all substantive information: duties, work schedule, conditions of employment (background check, drug testing, selective service, probationary period, US citizenship, medical exam, REAL ID license, online onboarding), qualifications (experience evidence, screen-out element, job elements, volunteer credit, physical requirements, working conditions), education (none). Also mention Position Description Title/PD#, full performance level WG-10, relocation expenses not authorized, relocation/recruitment incentives may be authorized, financial disclosure not required. Those are metadata; we should fold minor metadata into a short

      or drop it. The instruction: "do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

      or drop it." So we can include a short paragraph at top maybe with Position Description Title/PD#, full performance level, relocation etc. But we need to decide if that's substantive. It's minor metadata; we can include a short

      summarizing. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. Thus sections: Responsibilities (duties), Schedule (work schedule), Requirements (conditions of employment), Qualifications (experience, screen-out, job elements, physical requirements, working conditions). Possibly also a small meta paragraph before sections. We must not include Benefits, Pay. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's craft. First, a

      for metadata: "Position Description: Automotive Mechanic (PD136410). Full performance level: WG‑10. Relocation expenses: not authorized. Relocation/recruitment incentives: may be authorized. Financial disclosure report: not required." Then Responsibilities:

      Responsibilities

      • ... each duty sentence.
      We need to split duties sentences. Let's extract sentences from duties paragraph: "This is a Perform maintenance, overhaul, and repair work on a large variety of automotive, engineering, and grounds maintenance equipment powered by electricity, gasoline, and diesel fuel." Actually first sentence weird: "This is a Perform maintenance..." Probably should be "Perform maintenance..." We'll keep as is. "The equipment includes items such as: dump trucks, pickup trucks, all-terrain forklifts, leaf vacuum units, discs, point hitch rototillers, plows for tractors, front-end loader, vans, golf carts, backhoes, tracked excavators, utility vehicles, ATVs, Bobcat, tractors, and various mowers of graduating sizes up to a 16', and 85 horse power turbo charged diesel mower." "Work is also performed on compressors, tampers, chain saws, generators, string trimmers, shears, towed equipment, plows, and snow throwing equipment." "Able to trace and locate defects which cause hydraulic and other major systems to fail or not perform up to specifications regarding power output, lifting capacity, speed and pressure." "Be experienced using fuel pump testers, injector testers, ignition timers, tachometers, voltmeters and gauges, micrometers, calipers, and dial indicators." "Able to select and comply with technical manuals, illustrations, specifications, diagrams, schematics, and similar guides to make repairs and modifications according to specifications and procedures." "For example, some of these guides describe and show the complete assembly of engines and transmissions, and the layout of hydraulic systems with related pneumatic, electrical, and mechanical connections and controls." "Have skill in measuring, fitting, and instating components, such as pistons, valves, bearings, gears, and cylinders, to specified clearance." "They can connect, mesh, align, and adjust parts and systems to assure proper operation of the complete system or vehicle." "For example, adjust pumps, power boosters, drive chains, and tension devices; synchronize remote or manual electrical or automatic controls; and set timing of magnetos, distributors, injectors, and injection pumps to engine specifications." That's duties. Now schedule: "Work schedule: May be required to work Monday through Friday to include occasional weekends. Due to the mission of the National Cemetery, the cemetery cannot be closed for more than 2 consecutive days at any given time. Additionally, when a Federal holiday falls on a Monday or Friday, staff may be required to work on that holiday or a Saturday. All staff is required to work Memorial Day each year. Staff will be required to work overtime, weekends and holidays when necessary to meet the needs of the cemetery. Occasionally staff may be called back to the facility to perform emergency overtime work. Compressed/Flexible Schedule: Not Available" We can put as
      • items or a

        . Since it's a list of schedule details, we can use

          . Now Requirements (conditions of employment): list: - Subject to a background/security investigation. - Designated and/or random drug testing may be required. - Selective Service Registration is required for males born after 12/31/1959. - You may be required to serve a probationary period. - You must be a U.S. citizen to apply for this job. - Pass a pre-employment medical examination. - Must possess a valid REAL ID compliant state driver's license. - Selected applicants will be required to complete an online onboarding process. Also maybe "As a condition of employment for accepting this position, you will be required to serve a 1-year probationary period..." That's in Required section later. We'll include that as well. Also "All applicants tentatively selected for VA employment in a testing designated position are subject to urinalysis to screen for illegal drugs use prior to appointment. Applicants who refuse to be tested will be denied employment with VA." That's also condition. Also "Required As a condition of employment for accepting this position, you will be required to serve a 1-year probationary period during which we will evaluate your fitness and whether your continued employment advances the public interest."
