ManagementFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: Company Description, Job Description? Actually we need to use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. The posting includes company description, job description, qualifications, additional info. We need to map content to appropriate sections. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate: EEO, etc. Also remove duplicated lines, navigation, cookie, legal, etc. We need to preserve all substantive info. We need to decide which sections to include based on content. Content: - Company Description: details about KVE, founded >40 years ago, privately-owned civil and geotechnical engineering firm, 180+ employees, six offices in KS, one in MO, services: survey, drafting, civil design, construction inspection, geotechnical services and testing of soil, asphalt and concrete. Also benefits: health, dental, vision, short-term disability, long-term disability, life insurance, cafeteria plan for unreimbursed medical expenses and dependent care, 401(k) plan, sick and vacation leave, Years of Service awards, business casual dress, complimentary parking. - Job Description: Multiple locations available (list of locations). Seeking ambitious, career-minded individuals with strong math skills for lab and field testing of construction materials. Full-time position opening. Applicant must be able to lift at least 50 pounds and be willing to work outdoors in all weather conditions. - Qualifications: Experienced applicants preferred, however proficiency in algebra, trigonometry, geometry, and chemistry could be substituted for the experience; historically many of our technicians have worked extensively in agriculture or construction prior to joining our firm. - Additional Information: This is a full-time, hourly position. KVE conducts pre-employment drug and alcohol screenings, as well as pre-employment driving history checks. (EEO line removed.) We need to map to sections: About the role (maybe job description), Responsibilities (lab and field testing of construction materials, lift 50 lbs, work outdoors), Requirements/Qualifications (math skills, experience or proficiency in algebra etc), Skills (strong math skills, ability to lift 50 lbs, willingness to work outdoors), Benefits (list benefits), Pay (not specified, so we should NOT include Pay section), Schedule (full-time, hourly position - we could include Schedule? The rule: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it — never emit heading followed by filler/placeholder text. "full-time, hourly position" is specific content about schedule type. So we could include Schedule section with that info. However we also have "full-time position opening" in job description. So we can include Schedule: Full-time, hourly. We also have Locations: Multiple locations available list. Could be part of About the role or maybe a separate section? Not in prescribed headings. Could include under About the role as a paragraph. We must not include Pay section because not specified. We must not include Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It does state benefits in company description. So include Benefits. We must not include Skills section unless we have specific skills. We have strong math skills, ability to lift 50 lbs, willingness to work outdoors. Those could be skills. Could include Skills. We must not include Responsibilities unless we have duties. We have lab and field testing of construction materials. That's a responsibility. Could include Responsibilities. We must not include Requirements unless we have qualifications. We have experience preferred or proficiency in algebra etc. Could be Requirements/Qualifications. The heading list includes Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We can choose to combine or separate. Prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section maybe "Requirements". Or we could have "Qualifications". Let's decide. We need to use headings exactly as given: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should include only those with real content. Let's map: - About the role: Could include company description and locations and full-time nature? But About the role usually describes the role. Could include job description summary: Seeking ambitious, career-minded individuals with strong math skills for lab and field testing of construction materials. Full-time position. Multiple locations. Could be About the role. - Responsibilities: Lab and field testing of construction materials; lift at least 50 pounds; work outdoors in all weather conditions. - Requirements: Experienced applicants preferred; proficiency in algebra, trigonometry, geometry, and chemistry could be substituted for experience; background in agriculture or construction. - Skills: Strong math skills; ability to lift 50 lbs; willingness to work outdoors. - Benefits: health, dental, vision, short-term disability, long-term disability, life insurance; cafeteria plan for unreimbursed medical expenses and dependent care; 401(k) plan; sick and vacation leave; Years of Service awards; business casual dress; complimentary parking. - Schedule: Full-time, hourly position. We should not include Pay. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must output only HTML fragment, no /. Use

for section headings. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We need to ensure we don't include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract details precisely. Company description paragraph: "Kaw Valley Engineering, Inc. (KVE) was founded more than 40 years ago in Junction City, KS. Over time, this privately-owned civil and geotechnical engineering firm has grown to 180+ employees working in six (6) offices in Kansas and one (1) office in Missouri. The firm provides survey, drafting, civil design, construction inspection, geotechnical services and testing of soil, asphalt and concrete Kaw Valley Engineering, Inc. offers a robust package of employee benefits including: health, dental, vision, short-term disability, long-term disability, and life insurance. In addition, it offers a cafeteria plan for unreimbursed medical expenses and dependent care expenses. KVE also offers a 401(k) plan, sick and vacation leave, Years of Service awards, business casual dress and complimentary parking." Note there is a missing period before "Kaw Valley Engineering, Inc. offers". We'll keep as is. Job description: "Multiple locations available This is an hiring opportunity that may be filled at any of the following Kaw Valley Engineering offices: Lenexa, KSKansas City, MOJunction City, KSWichita, KSEmporia, KSGarden City, KSSalina, KS Seeking ambitious, career-minded individuals with strong math skills for lab and field testing of construction materials. This is a full-time position opening. Applicant must be able to lift at least 50 pounds and be willing to work outdoors in all weather conditions." We need to fix missing commas/spaces: "Lenexa, KS Kansas City, MO Junction City, KS Wichita, KS Emporia, KS Garden City, KS Salina, KS". We'll keep as given but maybe we should preserve exactly. The text: "Lenexa, KSKansas City, MOJunction City, KSWichita, KSEmporia, KSGarden City, KSSalina, KS". It's missing spaces after commas. We'll preserve as is? Might be okay. But we could add spaces for readability? The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Changing punctuation could be considered altering? It's ambiguous. Safer to keep exactly as given. However the missing spaces might be considered a typo but it's part of the posting. We'll keep as is. Qualifications: "Experienced applicants preferred, however, proficiency in algebra, trigonometry, geometry, and chemistry could be substituted for the experience; historically many of our technicians have worked extensively in agriculture or construction prior to joining our firm." Additional Information: "This is a full-time, hourly position. KVE conducts pre-employment drug and alcohol screenings, as well as pre-employment driving history checks." plus EEO line which we remove. We need to decide where to put the drug screenings and driving history checks. Could be part of Requirements or Additional Info. Since not in headings, we could include under Requirements as extra bullet? Or maybe under About the role? Probably under Requirements as it's a condition. We'll include under Requirements. Now craft HTML. We'll have sections:

    About the role

    ... company description and locations and full-time nature? Actually we already have Schedule section for full-time hourly. So About the role could include company description and locations and the role summary (seeking ambitious...). Let's include company description paragraph, then a sentence about locations and role. Better: About the role: company description + location list + role summary (seeking ambitious...). We'll avoid duplicating full-time info (we have Schedule). But we can mention it's a full-time position opening in About the role? Might duplicate with Schedule. To avoid duplication, we could keep full-time mention only in Schedule. However About the role could still mention "Seeking ambitious, career-minded individuals with strong math skills for lab and field testing of construction materials." That's fine. Let's draft: About the role:

    Kaw Valley Engineering, Inc. (KVE) was founded more than 40 years ago in Junction City, KS. Over time, this privately-owned civil and geotechnical engineering firm has grown to 180+ employees working in six (6) offices in Kansas and one (1) office in Missouri. The firm provides survey, drafting, civil design, construction inspection, geotechnical services and testing of soil, asphalt and concrete. Kaw Valley Engineering, Inc. offers a robust package of employee benefits including: health, dental, vision, short-term disability, long-term disability, and life insurance. In addition, it offers a cafeteria plan for unreimbursed medical expenses and dependent care expenses. KVE also offers a 401(k) plan, sick and vacation leave, Years of Service awards, business casual dress and complimentary parking.

    Multiple locations available: Lenexa, KSKansas City, MOJunction City, KSWichita, KSEmporia, KSGarden City, KSSalina, KS. Seeking ambitious, career-minded individuals with strong math skills for lab and field testing of construction materials.

    But we already have Benefits section separate; we shouldn't duplicate benefits in About the role. The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. If we move benefits to Benefits section, we should not duplicate them elsewhere. So we should not include benefits in About the role. Instead, About the role should contain company description (excluding benefits) and location and role summary. Benefits go to Benefits section. Thus we need to split company description into two parts: the description of the firm (founded, employees, offices, services) and the benefits list. We'll put the firm description in About the role, and benefits in Benefits section. Let's extract firm description: "Kaw Valley Engineering, Inc. (KVE) was founded more than 40 years ago in Junction City, KS. Over time, this privately-owned civil and geotechnical engineering firm has grown to 180+ employees working in six (6) offices in Kansas and one (1) office in Missouri. The firm provides survey, drafting, civil design, construction inspection, geotechnical services and testing of soil, asphalt and concrete." Now Benefits section: list as given. Now About the role paragraph: include firm description, locations, role summary. Let's craft:
