Contract Specialist.

We need to output HTML fragment with sections for duties, requirements, qualifications, maybe benefits, pay, schedule if present. The posting includes duties, requirements, qualifications. No explicit pay, schedule, benefits details (just generic statement about benefits but not specific). According to rules: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it — never emit heading followed by filler/placeholder text. The generic benefits statement is vague, not specific; we should not create Benefits section. Pay and Schedule not present. So we will have sections: Duties (maybe heading "Responsibilities"? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). The posting has "Duties" and "Requirements" and "Qualifications". We'll map Duties to Responsibilities heading? Probably use "Responsibilities". Use

Responsibilities

  Requirements

    Qualifications

    then
    • ... qualifications items. Need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must include all details from duties, requirements, qualifications. Must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. The posting includes a lot of text under Requirements (conditions of employment etc.) and Qualifications (who may apply, education, experience). We need to extract list items. However the instruction: Use
      • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

        for prose. So we need to decide what is list vs prose. The duties are a list of bullet-like sentences separated by periods? The duties paragraph: "Assist contract administration offices in the administration of contracts, including performance of termination actions, until final delivery and payments are completed and the contract is closed. Review requests for the procurement of complex equipment, services, and/or construction. Negotiate contract modifications. Provides technical advice, guidance and training to junior contract specialists in the division." That's four items. We'll make each as

      • . Requirements: The block includes many sentences: "Conditions of employment Appointment may be subject to a suitability or fitness determination, as determined by a completed background investigation. This position is designated Tier 3, Non-Critical Sensitive, Moderate Risk and requires the incumbent to obtain and maintain a Secret Security Clearance Level as a condition of employment. This position has a Temporary Duty (TDY) or business travel requirement of 25% of the time. This is a Defense Acquisition Workforce (AWF) position.

This position requires a Foundational Career Level Certification or Contracting Professional Certification within 3 years." That's a bunch of statements; we could treat each sentence as
      • . Also there is "Conditions of employment" repeated? We'll just list each distinct requirement. Qualifications: Very long. We need to preserve all substantive information. Could break into list items for each major point: Who May Apply: US Citizens; In order to qualify, you must meet the education and experience requirements described below. Experience refers to paid and unpaid experience...; Your resume must clearly describe your relevant experience...; Additional information about transcripts is Basic Requirement for Contract Specialist Degree: Bachelor's degree (or higher degree) from an accredited educational institution authorized to grant baccalaureate degrees.

Eligibility for benefits depends on the type of position you hold and whether your position is full-time, part-time or intermittent. Contact the hiring agency for more information on the specific benefits offered. We need to decide what to include. The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The benefits generic statement maybe considered boilerplate? It's not specific; we should not create Benefits section. But we could include some of those statements under Qualifications as prose? However they are not strictly qualifications; they are conditions of employment, etc. Many of those are already under Requirements. The generic benefits statement maybe not needed. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section? But they ask to use headings for those categories if present. We have both Requirements and Qualifications content, so we should output both. We need to ensure we don't include filler like "not specified". All content we include is substantive. We'll produce:
