We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Also remove application instructions? The instruction says: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we need to strip out things like "How to Apply", "Veterans", "Telecommunications Relay Service", "The Commonwealth is an equal employment opportunity employer", etc. Also remove "Interested in learning more? Additional details regarding this position can be found in the position description." Also remove "Work Schedule and Additional Information:" maybe we keep schedule info? Actually schedule is a section we can include if posting actually states them. The posting includes: "Work Schedule and Additional Information: Full-time employment Work hours are 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM, Monday - Friday, with a 30-minute lunch. This position may be eligible for alternate work schedule (AWS). Telework: You may have the opportunity to work from home (telework) part-time, up to 3 days per week. In order to telework, you must have a securely configured high-speed internet connection and work from an approved location inside Pennsylvania. If you are unable to telework, you will have the option to report to the headquarters office in Uniontown. The ability to telework is subject to change at any time. Additional details may be provided during the interview." So schedule info is present. Also salary: "Salary: In some cases, the starting salary may be non-negotiable. You will receive further communication regarding this position via email. Check your email, including spam/junk folders, for these notices." That's vague; it's not a specific salary figure, just says may be non-negotiable. According to rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state schedule (work hours). It does mention salary but only vague. Should we include Pay? The rule says: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. The posting states "Salary: In some cases, the starting salary may be non-negotiable." That's not a specific number but it's still stating something about salary. Is that considered filler? It's vague but it's actual statement. I'd lean to include Pay section with that sentence. Benefits: not mentioned. So we should not include Benefits. We need sections: About the role (maybe from first paragraph), Responsibilities (list of duties), Requirements/Qualifications (maybe combine?), Skills? Not explicitly listed. Could include Qualifications (experience, certification, license, residency). Could also include Skills? Not present. So we will have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Pay, Schedule. Possibly also "Requirements" but we can combine with Qualifications. The instruction: use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can choose which to include. We'll include About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Pay, Schedule. Now we need to extract substantive content. About the role: The first paragraph: "THE POSITION Are you ready to lead high-impact real estate decisions that shape transportation projects across Pennsylvania? As a Chief Real Estate Appraiser with the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT), you will have the fulfilling opportunity to guide complex appraisal work that supports public initiatives throughout the Commonwealth. You will lead staff, coordinate large-scale efforts, and help ensure accurate and compliant property valuations. This role allows you to use your expertise to solve challenging issues and support community needs. If you are an experienced leader who values precision and public service, we want to meet you!" We should preserve that. Remove "THE POSITION" maybe not needed. We'll keep the paragraph. Responsibilities: The list under "As a Chief Real Estate Appraiser, you will perform the following duties:" then bullet-like lines: Staff Supervision: Plan, organize, assign, and review staff appraisal work while overseeing performance and development; Complex Appraisals: Complete and supervise difficult appraisal activities, determine compensable damages, and evaluate value estimates; Project Coordination: Manage multiple appraisal projects, support project delivery, and communicate with engineers, attorneys, and consultants; Compliance Oversight: Ensure appraisals follow Pub 378, Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP), the Uniform Act, and departmental policies; Contract Management: Oversee fee appraiser contracting, review reports, maintain appraisal records, and ensure timely completion; Public Engagement: Attend meetings, explain appraisal topics to the public, and support litigation through expert testimony. We need to put these in
  • . Each duty as a list item. Could keep the colon and description inside li. Qualifications: The section "Required Experience, Training & Eligibility QUALIFICATIONS Minimum Experience and Training Requirements: One year as a General Real Estate Appraiser (Commonwealth job title or equivalent Federal Government job title, as determined by the Office of Administration); or Three years of professional real estate appraisal experience which includes one year appraising all types of real property. Special Requirements: All positions require possession of an active Pennsylvania Certified General Appraiser certification. All positions require possession of an active motor vehicle license. Other Requirements: You must meet the PA residency requirement . For more information on ways to meet PA residency requirements, follow the link and click on Residency Guidelines. You must be able to perform essential job functions." We need to preserve that. Remove "Other Requirements:" maybe keep as part of qualifications. Also remove "For more information on ways to meet PA residency requirements, follow the link and click on Residency Guidelines." That's a link instruction; maybe considered boilerplate? It's a reference to a link; but it's substantive info about residency requirement. However it's a directive to follow a link; might be considered application instruction? It's not exactly application instruction but it's a reference. The instruction says remove application instructions. This is not about applying but about residency guidelines. Might be considered extra info but still substantive. I'd keep the residency requirement sentence but maybe drop the "follow the link and click on Residency Guidelines." as it's a link instruction. Could keep "You must meet the PA residency requirement." That's enough. Also need to include "You must be able to perform essential job functions." That's a standard phrase but maybe considered boilerplate? It's a typical requirement. Might be considered generic but it's still a requirement. I'd keep it. Pay: The salary paragraph: "Salary: In some cases, the starting salary may be non-negotiable. You will receive further communication regarding this position via email. Check your email, including spam/junk folders, for these notices." We need to keep that. However the second sentence about email communication is maybe application instruction? It's about receiving communication; could be considered application instruction. The instruction says remove application instructions. That might be considered part of application process. But it's about salary communication. Might be borderline. Safer to keep only the salary statement: "In some cases, the starting salary may be non-negotiable." The rest about email could be considered application instruction. I'd drop it. Schedule: The schedule paragraph: "Work Schedule and Additional Information: Full-time employment Work hours are 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM, Monday - Friday, with a 30-minute lunch. This position may be eligible for alternate work schedule (AWS). Telework: You may have the opportunity to work from home (telework) part-time, up to 3 days per week. In order to telework, you must have a securely configured high-speed internet connection and work from an approved location inside Pennsylvania. If you are unable to telework, you will have the option to report to the headquarters office in Uniontown. The ability to telework is subject to change at any time. Additional details may be provided during the interview." We need to keep schedule info. The last sentence about additional details may be provided during the interview is maybe application instruction? It's about interview details. Might be considered application instruction. I'd drop that sentence. Also "Additional details may be provided during the interview." is definitely about interview. Remove. Thus schedule section: Full-time employment; work hours 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM, Monday-Friday, with a 30-minute lunch; position may be eligible for alternate work schedule (AWS); telework opportunity up to 3 days per week with requirements; if unable to telework, option to report to headquarters office in Uniontown; ability to telework subject to change.

      Check for any leftover boilerplate: We removed "Interested in learning more? Additional details regarding this position can be found in the position description." Good. Removed "How to Apply", "Veterans", "Telecommunications Relay Service", EEO statements, etc. Also removed "EXAMINATION INFORMATION" etc. Also removed "Required Experience, Training & Eligibility QUALIFICATIONS" heading inside Qualifications paragraph? We kept the content but removed the heading. That's fine. Check for duplication: Not present. Check for any mention of "Additional details may be provided during the interview" removed. Check for "You will receive further communication regarding this position via email
