We need to output HTML fragment with sections: h3 for headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate etc. We need to parse the posting. Key info: Working Title: Corrections Chief Cook Job Class: Corrections Chief Cook Agency: Corrections Dept Job ID: 96940 Location: Lino Lakes Telework Eligible: No Full/Part Time: Full-Time Regular/Temporary: Unlimited Who May Apply: Open to all qualified applicants Date Posted: 09/18/2026 Closing Date: 09/24/2026 Hiring Agency/Seniority Unit: Department of Corrections Division/Unit: Minnesota Correctional Facility (MCF) - Lino Lakes Work Shift/Work Hours: Evening Shift/11:00 am - 7:00 pm Days of Work: Sunday - Thursday Days off: Friday/Saturday Travel Required: No Salary Range: $25.22 - $35.83 / hourly; $52,659 - $74,813 / annually Classified Status: Classified Bargaining Unit/Union: 203 - Service/AFSCME FLSA Status: Nonexempt Designated in Connect 700 Program for Applicants with Disabilities: Yes Then description: "The work you'll do is more than just a job..." etc. Responsibilities: bullet list. Minimum Qualifications: paragraphs. Required Training: note about ServSafe. Preferred Qualifications: bullet list. Physical Requirements: paragraph. Additional Requirements: paragraph. How To Apply: instructions (should be removed as per rule: remove application instructions). So we drop that. Contact: contact info (should be removed? It's not boilerplate but contact info maybe considered application instructions? The rule says remove application instructions. Contact might be considered part of application instructions. Safer to remove contact lines. About Corrections Dept: description (maybe "About the role"? Actually "About Corrections Dept" is like agency description. Could be considered "About the role"? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have "About the role" heading and put the agency description there. But we also have a separate "About Corrections Dept" paragraph. We'll treat that as About the role. Benefits: there is a Benefits section with bullet list. Pay: we have Salary Range. Schedule: we have Work Shift/Work Hours, Days of Work, Days off. We should not repeat job title as heading. We should not put Job ID etc as headings; fold minor metadata into short

or drop it. So we can include a short paragraph with metadata like Job ID, location, etc. But we need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to keep Job ID, location, etc somewhere. Probably a

with those details. We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. Let's structure:

Job ID: 96940 | Location: Lino Lakes | Telework Eligible: No | Full-Time | Regular/Temporary: Unlimited | Who May Apply: Open to all qualified applicants | Date Posted: 09/18/2026 | Closing Date: 09/24/2026 | Hiring Agency/Seniority Unit: Department of Corrections | Division/Unit: Minnesota Correctional Facility (MCF) - Lino Lakes | Work Shift/Work Hours: Evening Shift/11:00 am - 7:00 pm | Days of Work: Sunday - Thursday | Days off: Friday/Saturday | Travel Required: No | Salary Range: $25.22 - $35.83 hourly; $52,659 - $74,813 annually | Classified Status: Classified | Bargaining Unit/Union: 203 - Service/AFSCME | FLSA Status: Nonexempt | Designated in Connect 700 Program for Applicants with Disabilities: Yes

Then

About the role

with the paragraph(s) describing the work: "The work you'll do is more than just a job. At the State of Minnesota, employees play a critical role..." plus maybe the "About Corrections Dept" paragraph. We'll combine. Then

Responsibilities

with
  • each bullet. Responsibilities list: - Provide directions/guidance as a lead worker to Cook Coordinators and incarcerated individual workers, so that assignments and duties are completed in accordance with department policy and procedure. - Select, develop, and instruct an effective, efficient, and safe incarcerated individual workforce including hiring, scheduling, orientation, training, work assignments, payroll, and quarterly evaluations of incarcerated individuals. - Oversee, direct, and maintain the incarcerated individual kitchen worker program in the preparation of daily meals. - Assist security staff so rules regarding incarcerated individuals' behavior and facility regulations are followed. - Carry out other duties as assigned by supervisor so that the institution needs are met. - Competently perform necessary duties of the Corrections Food Services Supervisor in their absence. - This position has direct contact with incarcerated individuals. We need to keep all. Then

    Minimum Qualifications

    with paragraphs. We have: "To be qualified for and considered for this position, applicants must meet all of the minimum qualifications listed below. Ensure that your resume contains descriptions of your work experiences sufficient for comparison against the requirements stated below and indicate the beginning and ending month and year for each job held. Applicants must be at least 18 years old and able to pass a criminal history check. For your success, you must be able to read, write, and communicate verbally in English and be able to stand, walk, bend, carry, push, and handle items the majority of shift. Qualifying applicants must meet ONE of the following Food Service requirements: Two years of lead work experience in a large restaurant, cafeteria, school, healthcare, or equivalent setting which included oversight for high-volume cooking, or baking, or food preparation, OR One year of full-time experience in a food service lead work/supervisory role that required at least partial responsibility for meeting health and food safety codes, OR Completion of a vocational/technical school program in restaurant, dietary management or related field that required hands-on training." We can keep as

    maybe multiple

    but we can combine. Then

    Required Training

    maybe as part of Qualifications? But we have a separate heading "Required Training". According to allowed headings list, we have Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Not Required Training. But we could fold into Qualifications or Skills. However the instruction: "Use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., not exclusive. But we should prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could incorporate Required Training into Qualifications or Skills. Probably better to put under Qualifications as a paragraph. Preferred Qualifications: we can put under

    Preferred Qualifications

    (maybe under Qualifications). But we have allowed heading Qualifications; we could have both Minimum and Preferred under Qualifications with subheadings? But we only allowed h3 headings. Could have separate h3 for Preferred Qualifications? Not in list but could be considered Qualifications. Safer to combine Minimum and Preferred under Qualifications with two paragraphs: Minimum Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. Physical Requirements: could be under Requirements? Not in list but could be under Requirements heading. We have allowed heading Requirements. So we can make a Requirements section that includes Physical Requirements and Additional Requirements maybe. Additional Requirements: also under Requirements. Benefits: we have a Benefits section with bullet list. Pay: we have Salary Range. Schedule: we have Work Shift/Work Hours, Days of Work, Days off. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications (including Minimum and Preferred), Requirements (Physical Requirements, Additional Requirements), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not include empty sections. Now we need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like EEO etc. Remove those paragraphs. Let's extract Benefits bullet list: From "Benefits As an employee, you'll have access to one of the most affordable health insurance plans in Minnesota, along with other benefits to help you and your family be well. Your Benefits May Include Paid vacation and sick leave 12 paid holidays each year Low-cost medical, dental, vision, and prescription drug plans Fertility care, including IVF Diabetes care Dental and orthodontic care for adults and children 6 weeks paid leave for parents of newborn or newly adopted children Pension plan that provides income when you retire (after working at least three years) Employer paid life insurance to provide support for your family in the event of death Short-term and long-term disability insurance that can provide income if you are unable to work due to illness or injury Tax-free expense accounts for health, dental, and dependent care Resources that provide support and promote physical, emotional, social, and financial well-being" We need to turn into
    • items. The list is not clearly separated; we can split by sentences or phrases. Better to keep as

      maybe? But rule: Use

      • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we need to make list items. We'll split by clear benefits: - Paid vacation and sick leave - 12 paid holidays each year - Low-cost medical, dental, vision, and prescription drug plans - Fertility care, including IVF - Diabetes care - Dental and orthodontic care for adults and children - 6 weeks paid leave for parents of newborn or newly adopted children - Pension plan that provides income when you retire (after working at least three years) - Employer paid life insurance to provide support for your family in the event of death - Short-term and long-term disability insurance that can provide income if you are unable to work due to illness or injury - Tax-free expense accounts for health, dental, and dependent care - Resources that provide support and promote physical, emotional, social, and financial well-being We'll keep as list. Now Pay: we have Salary Range: $25.22 - $35.83 / hourly; $52,659 - $74,813 / annually. We'll put in

        maybe. Schedule: Work Shift/Work Hours: Evening Shift/11:00 am - 7:00 pm; Days of Work: Sunday - Thursday; Days off: Friday/Saturday. We'll put in

        . Now Requirements: Physical Requirements paragraph and Additional Requirements paragraph. Physical Requirements: "The completion of pre-placement physical components may be required for this position. These components consist of a tuberculosis screening. The selected finalist is required to review and sign a Physical Demands Analysis (PDA) for this position. For a copy of the PDA, please email Tracy Larsen at tracy.c.larsen@state.mn.us" Additional Requirements: "The selection process may include screening the top candidate(s) on their criminal history, predatory offender registration, offender associations and/or other applicable background information in accordance with Department of Corrections’ policy. Top candidate(s) must pass a criminal history check which includes successful completion of all sentencing and/or restitution requirements of law enforcement jurisdictions, including probation.
