Consumer Safety Inspector
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content.
We have duties summary (some duties info). We have qualifications (specialized experience). We have benefits (sign on bonus, creditable service, PSLF, referral bonus). We have maybe schedule? Not specific schedule given. Shifts and species will vary based on assignment - that's schedule info? Could be schedule but not specific. The rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. Benefits are stated (sign on bonus etc). So we can have Benefits section. Pay? Not specific amount besides sign on bonus. Not base pay. So we should not create Pay section. Schedule? Not specific schedule; just "Shifts and species will vary based on assignment." That's vague. Might be considered schedule info but not specific. The rule says do not create Schedule unless posting actually states them. It states shifts will vary based on assignment, which is somewhat schedule info but not concrete. Probably we should not create Schedule section because it's not specific. We could include a short paragraph under Duties or About the role.
We need to not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail.
We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. The text includes some boilerplate like "The below requirements are not an all-inclusive list..." maybe keep? It's substantive? It's a note about requirements. Might keep as part of Qualifications.
We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content.
Thus sections: Responsibilities (duties), Qualifications (specialized experience), Benefits (bonuses etc). Possibly About the role? Could combine duties and responsibilities. The posting includes "Duties Summary ..." and then description of work location. That could be Responsibilities.
We'll output:
Responsibilities
... duties summary ...
Then maybe Qualifications
with - for each bullet? The qualifications are paragraphs with definitions for each GS level. Could be a
with each level as - . But we need to preserve all detail; we can put each level as a
- containing the text.
Then
Benefits
with - for each benefit.
We need to ensure we don't create empty sections.
Let's extract duties summary text:
"Duties Summary $5,000 Sign on Bonus, Creditable Service for Annual Leave Accrual, Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program, and Referral Bonus Awards are available. Shifts and species will vary based on assignment. For add'l information call: Dr. Cameron Davis @ 970-380-8331 Employee will primarily work in one plant but may be detailed to any shift at any plant in the Denver District."
We need to keep all that. However the first part mentions bonuses which are benefits; but it's in duties summary line. We should keep it as part of duties summary? Might be confusing. But we must preserve all substantive information; we can keep it in duties summary paragraph. However we also have a Benefits section listing those bonuses. To avoid duplication, we could keep the bonuses only in Benefits section and not repeat in duties. But the instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. If we remove the bonuses from duties summary, we are removing that detail from that section, but we still have it in Benefits section, so overall information is preserved. That's acceptable as we are not removing the info entirely, just relocating. However the instruction says "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading ... and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." It doesn't forbid moving content between sections as long as we keep all info. It's safer to keep the bonuses in Benefits section and not duplicate. But the duties summary line includes them; we could keep that line but then we would duplicate. Duplication is not prohibited explicitly, but they said "remove duplicated lines". So we should avoid duplicated lines. So we should not repeat the bonuses in both places. So we will extract the bonuses for Benefits section and not include them in duties summary.
Thus duties summary paragraph: "Shifts and species will vary based on assignment. For add'l information call: Dr. Cameron Davis @ 970-380-8331 Employee will primarily work in one plant but may be detailed to any shift at any plant in the Denver District."
We need to keep the call info.
Now Qualifications: We have paragraphs describing specialized experience for GS-05, GS-07, GS-08, GS-09. Also note about volunteer work etc. Also "The below requirements are not an all-inclusive list. Failure to fully meet a functional requirement is not automatically disqualifying." plus description of FSIS etc. Also "A career with the U.S. Government provides employees with a comprehensive benefits package..." but that's benefits-ish but we already have benefits. Might be generic; we could keep as part of Qualifications? It's more about benefits. But we already have Benefits section with specific incentives. The generic benefits paragraph could be considered boilerplate? It's about federal benefits; might be considered boilerplate but it's substantive? It says "A career with the U.S. Government provides employees with a comprehensive benefits package...". Could be considered generic but still info. However we already have Benefits section with specific incentives; we could keep this generic paragraph under Benefits as well? Might be considered boilerplate but not navigation/legal. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. This generic benefits paragraph is not exactly those; it's more about benefits. Might keep.
But we already have Benefits section with specific incentives; we could add a
after the list describing general benefits.
Now Benefits section: list: $5,000 Sign on Bonus: Newly appointed only. Creditable Service for Annual Leave Accrual: Calculated to determine the annual leave accrual rate. Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program: For more information please visit: PSLF Program. $1,000 Employee Referral Bonus Award eligible: Paid to employees who refer applicants who are hired with FSIS.
We need to preserve all detail.
Now we need to output HTML fragment only.
