Clinical Psychologist
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We need to parse the posting. Key info: - Title: Clinical Psychologist (but we don't repeat as heading) - Location: Chantilly, VA or McLean, VA *location to be determined by staffing need. - Description: supportive etc. - Primary Responsibilities: list of duties. - Basic Qualifications: list. - Pay Range: appears twice: $154,050.00 - $271,957.50 and later $154,050.00 - $278,475.00. There's duplication; we need preserve all substantive info. Probably we should include the range as given; maybe note both? The posting includes two ranges; we could combine? But we must preserve all substantive info; we could list both ranges as separate statements. However we should not invent or summarize away detail. Could include both ranges in a
under Pay section. - Benefits: mention "competitive compensation, Health and Wellness programs, Income Protection, Paid Leave and Retirement." Also earlier "Pay and benefits are fundamental..." and link. - Schedule: not mentioned explicitly. No schedule info. So we should not create Schedule section. - About Leidos: company description; could be under About the role? Actually "About Leidos" is separate. Could be under About the role? The instruction: use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we could have About the role (maybe includes description of role and company). But we also have "About Leidos" which is about company. Could fit under About the role? Might be better to have About the role (includes description of role and maybe company). However we need to preserve all substantive info; we can include company description in About the role section. - Skills: maybe derived from qualifications: strong clinical abilities, excellent verbal and communication skills, detail-oriented, etc. Could be a Skills section. - Requirements: maybe basic qualifications. - Qualifications: maybe same as requirements? The instruction list includes both Requirements and Qualifications; we need to decide what to put where. Usually Requirements = basic qualifications, Qualifications = preferred or additional. But we only have basic qualifications. Could put them under Requirements and maybe Qualifications empty -> we should not create empty sections. So we should only create sections with real content. Thus we can have:
About the role
with paragraphs describing role, location, mission, etc.Responsibilities
with- list of duties.
Requirements
with- list of basic qualifications.
Skills
with- list of skills: strong clinical abilities, enthusiasm for collaborative approach, excellent verbal and communication skills, detail-oriented.
Pay
withcontaining both pay ranges? Could list as two separate sentences.
Benefits
withdescribing benefits. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, scam warnings, legal, navigation, cookie, etc. Also remove duplicated lines, application instructions. We need to preserve all substantive information: location, mission statement, sponsorship for clearance, etc. Let's extract substantive content: - Leidos Health & Civil Sector seeking Clinical Psychologist candidates to work in Chantilly, VA or McLean, VA *location to be determined by staffing need. - Very rewarding and challenging opportunity supporting Military and Intelligence men and women and the challenges they face. - Leidos will consider sponsoring qualified individuals towards gaining the Top Secret/SCI with Poly security clearance required for this position. - Primary Responsibilities: list: - Conduct psychological assessments and clinical interviews, including documenting clinical findings. - Diagnose psychological disorders and provide evidence-based psychotherapy and consultations. - Conduct diagnostic interviews and therapy sessions using evidence-based and brief therapeutic models and consultation to management and other medical staff. - Provide current national mental health care referral capability/network information and resources, as applicable. - Develop and implement mental health related workshops, briefings and facilitate group therapy, as requested. - Conduct pre/post deployment consultations, mental health briefings and organizational consultation to components involved in high-threat and expeditionary operations. - Maintain complete, accurate, and current records of all clinical services rendered, includes initial evaluations, progress notes, summary notes and all other necessary documentation. - Consult with management and other medical staff as needed. - Basic Qualifications: - Doctoral degree (Ph.D. or Psy. D.) in Clinical Psychology. - Completion of an APA-accredited program. - Postdoctoral supervised experience, ranging from 1,500 to 2,000 hours, often in a clinical setting. - 5 years of post-licensure/certification experience. - Must have state licensure as a Psychologist to work at an independent level. A current valid unrestricted counseling license/certification from one of the 50 U.S. states or D.C. that grants the authority to provide counseling services as an independent practitioner in their respective fields is required. - Experience conducting assessments and clinical interviews to include documenting clinical findings. - Ability to diagnose psychological disorders and provide evidence-based psychotherapy. - Strong clinical abilities, and enthusiasm for a collaborative approach to treatment. - Excellent verbal and communication skills. - Detail-Oriented. - Pay Range: $154,050.00 - $271,957.50 (first) and later $154,050.00 - $278,475.00. Also note: "The Leidos pay range for this job level is a general guideline only and not a guarantee of compensation or salary. Additional factors considered in extending an offer include (but are not limited to) responsibilities of the job, education, experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities, as well as internal equity, alignment with market data, applicable bargaining agreement (if any), or other law." - Benefits: "Pay and benefits are fundamental to any career decision. That's why we craft compensation packages that reflect the importance of the work we do for our customers. Employment benefits include competitive compensation, Health and Wellness programs, Income Protection, Paid Leave and Retirement. More details are available at www.leidos.com/careers/pay-benefits." - About Leidos: "Leidos is an industry and technology leader serving government and commercial customers with smarter, more efficient digital and mission innovations. Headquartered in Reston, Virginia, with 47,000 global employees, Leidos reported annual revenues of approximately $16.7 billion for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2025. For more information, visit www.Leidos.com." - Also motivational text: "If you're looking for comfort, keep scrolling. At Leidos, we outthink, outbuild, and outpace the status quo — because the mission demands it. We're not hiring followers. We're recruiting the ones who disrupt, provoke, and refuse to fail. Step 10 is ancient history. We're already at step 30 — and moving faster than anyone else dares." This is substantive? It's marketing fluff but still part of posting. Should we include? It's not boilerplate; it's part of the description. Could include in About the role. - Original Posting date etc: that's metadata; we can drop as per instruction: do not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. The posting date is minor metadata; we could drop it. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we can drop the original posting date and the "For U.S. Positions: While subject to change..." etc. That's like boilerplate about posting duration. We'll drop. - Also the "Securing Your Data" scam warning is boilerplate; drop. - Commitment to Non-Discrimination is EEO boilerplate; drop. Thus final HTML:
