Certified Welding Inspector (CWI) - Structural Steel
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes: About the role (first paragraph). Responsibilities (Key Responsibilities). Required Qualifications (maybe Requirements). Preferred Qualifications (maybe Qualifications? Actually they have Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications). Skills maybe from required: ability to read drawings, knowledge of AWS D1.1, communication skills, driver's license, ability to work outdoors. Benefits: PERKS & BENEFITS section. Pay: not mentioned. Schedule: not mentioned. So we should not include Pay or Schedule sections. Also we should not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate: EEO, NOVA about section? The "ABOUT NOVA:" is maybe not required? It's about company, not role. The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." Should we keep the "ABOUT NOVA:"? It's about the company, not the role. Might be considered boilerplate? It's not navigation/legal/EEO etc. It's descriptive of company. Might be considered substantive? The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." The "ABOUT NOVA:" is not those. It's company overview. Might be considered part of job posting but not required? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information. So we should include it maybe under a section like "About the company"? But we only have allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. No "About the company". Could we incorporate that into About the role? The first paragraph already describes role and team. The "ABOUT NOVA:" is separate. Could we treat it as part of About the role? Might be okay to include as a paragraph under About the role. But we must not invent headings. So we can just put that content in a
under About the role heading. We need to avoid duplicative lines. The posting includes repeated "NOVA is an Equal Opportunity Employer." appears twice. Remove that boilerplate. Also "Equal Opportunity Employer This employer is required to notify..." remove. We need to use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So for Responsibilities, Required Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications, Benefits we should make lists.
We need to use
for prose. We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's extract content: About the role: first paragraph: "NOVA Engineering & Environmental is seeking a Certified Welding Inspector (CWI) to join our CMT & Special Inspections team in Kennesaw, Georgia.

Also we could add the "ABOUT NOVA:" paragraph? Might be considered company overview. Could be included under About the role as extra prose. Let's include it as a separate paragraph after the first. ABOUT NOVA: "Established in 1996, NOVA was originally founded to provide Environmental Consulting, Geotechnical Engineering, and Construction Materials Testing and Inspection services to the design and construction community, largely in the southeastern United States.
