OTHRFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes "THE POSITION" paragraph, then "DESCRIPTION OF WORK" with duties list, then "Work Schedule and Additional Information", then "Required Experience, Training & Eligibility" with qualifications, then other sections like Legal Requirements, How to Apply, Examination Information, Veterans, TRS, EEO etc. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "How to Apply" instructions? The instruction says: remove application instructions. So we should drop the "How to Apply" section entirely. Also remove EEO statement, Veterans info, TRS, Examination Information? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Examination Information may be considered part of application process? It's about scoring etc. Might be considered application instructions? It says "Your score is based on the detailed information you provide on your application..." That's still about application process. Likely we should remove Examination Information as it's part of application instructions. Also remove "Veterans", "TRS", EEO statement. Keep substantive info: About the role (the initial paragraph), Responsibilities (the duties list), Work Schedule (full time, hours, telework not available), Qualifications (the list of minimum experience/training requirements), maybe Legal Requirements (background investigation, Child Protective Services Law, clearances) - that is substantive. Also maybe "Other Requirements: PA residency requirement waived". Also "You must be able to perform essential job functions." That's part of qualifications? Could be included in Qualifications section. We need headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should only include sections that have real specific content. We have content for About the role (the first paragraph). Responsibilities (the duties list). Work Schedule (hours, telework not available). Qualifications (the minimum experience/training requirements). Legal Requirements maybe could be under Requirements? Or we could have a separate section "Requirements" for legal/background etc. But we have to decide. We have "Other Requirements: PA residency requirement is currently waived for this title. You must be able to perform essential job functions." That's also requirements. We have "Legal Requirements: You must pass a background investigation. This position falls under the provisions of the Child Protective Services Law. Under the Law, a conditional offer of employment will require submission and approval of satisfactory criminal history reports including, but not limited to, PA State Police clearance, PA Child Abuse history clearance, and FBI Fingerprint clearance." That seems like requirements. We could combine "Requirements" section to include other requirements and legal requirements. Or we could have separate sections: Requirements (other reqs) and Legal Requirements (but we only have headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. No Legal Requirements heading. So we should put legal info under Requirements. Skills: Not explicitly listed; we could infer from duties but we should not invent. So we should not create Skills section unless posting states specific skills. It doesn't list skills explicitly. So omit Skills. Benefits: Not mentioned. Omit. Pay: Not mentioned. Omit. Schedule: We have work schedule info. So we can have Schedule section. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Schedule. Now we need to format:

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

    for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from those sections. Let's extract content. About the role: The first paragraph after "THE POSITION": "Lehigh County Mental Health Services is seeking a County Caseworker 2 who is ready to support individuals facing behavioral health challenges. This position allows you to use strong decision-making skills while helping people access services and navigate crisis situations. You will work in a setting that values teamwork, clear communication, and reliable support. Step into a role where your efforts help people find stability and important resources." We should keep that as prose in

    . Responsibilities: Under "DESCRIPTION OF WORK" there is a paragraph: "This position provides crisis intervention, information and referral services, and case support for individuals experiencing behavioral health challenges. As a County Caseworker 2, you will perform the following duties:" Then a list of duties each preceded by a bold label? The text: Client Support: Gather information to identify social, economic, emotional, and health needs and assist clients in accessing services Crisis Intervention: Provide immediate support, manage crisis requests, and screen incoming referrals by phone, outreach, or walk-in Clinical Assessment: Recognize symptoms of mental illness during assessments and determine service needs Safety Assessment: Evaluate crisis situations, use de-escalation techniques, and conduct outreach assessments Legal Compliance: Understand the Mental Health Procedures Act and fulfill duty to warn requirements Petitioning Duties: Review 302 and Act 77 documentation and act as petitioner when needed We need to put each as

  • . Should we include the label as part of the li text? Yes. Thus
    • Client Support: Gather information to identify social, economic, emotional, and health needs and assist clients in accessing services
    • ... etc. Work Schedule and Additional Information: "Full time employmentWork hours are 8:00 am through 4:00 pm, Monday-Friday, with a 30 minute lunch. Telework: You will not have the option to telework in this position. You will receive further communication regarding this position via email. Check your email, including spam/junk folders, for these notices." We need to remove application instructions like "You will receive further communication regarding this position via email. Check your email, including spam/junk folders, for these notices." That's application instruction? It's about communication after applying. Might be considered application instruction. The instruction says remove application instructions. So we should drop that sentence. Keep the schedule info: Full time employment, work hours 8:00 am through 4:00 pm, Monday-Friday, with a 30 minute lunch. Telework: You will not have the option to telework in this position. Thus Schedule section:

      Full time employment. Work hours are 8:00 am through 4:00 pm, Monday-Friday, with a 30 minute lunch. Telework: You will not have the option to telework in this position.

      Now Requirements: Combine other requirements and legal requirements. Other Requirements: "PA residency requirement is currently waived for this title. You must be able to perform essential job functions." Legal Requirements: "You must pass a background investigation. This position falls under the provisions of the Child Protective Services Law. Under the Law, a conditional offer of employment will require submission and approval of satisfactory criminal history reports including, but not limited to, PA State Police clearance, PA Child Abuse history clearance, and FBI Fingerprint clearance." We should preserve all details. So we can make a
        list? It's not a list but we could make

        paragraphs. The instruction: Use

        • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So if we have multiple requirements, we could list them as items. But we have two categories: other requirements and legal requirements. Could make a list: PA residency requirement is currently waived for this title; You must be able to perform essential job functions; You must pass a background investigation; This position falls under the provisions of the Child Protective Services Law; Under the Law, a conditional offer of employment will require submission and approval of satisfactory criminal history reports including, but not limited to, PA State Police clearance, PA Child Abuse history clearance, and FBI Fingerprint clearance. But note that some sentences are longer; we can keep them as list items. Thus Requirements section:

          Requirements

          • PA residency requirement is currently waived for this title.
          • You must be able to perform essential job functions.
          • You must pass a background investigation.
          • This position falls under the provisions of the Child Protective Services Law.
          • Under the Law, a conditional offer of employment will require submission and approval of satisfactory criminal history reports including, but not limited to, PA State Police clearance, PA Child Abuse history clearance, and FBI Fingerprint clearance.
          Now Qualifications: The "Required Experience, Training & Eligibility" section includes a paragraph "QUALIFICATIONS Minimum Experience and Training Requirements:" then a list of options separated by semicolons. We need to preserve all detail. It's a list of options; we can make
          • each option. Options: - Six months of experience as a County Caseworker 1; - Successful completion of the County Social Casework Intern program; - A bachelor's degree with a social welfare major; - A bachelor's degree which includes or is supplemented by 12 college credits in sociology, social welfare, psychology, gerontology, criminal justice, or other related social sciences and one year of professional social casework experience in a public or private social service agency; - Any equivalent combination of experience and training which includes 12 college credits in sociology, social welfare, psychology, gerontology, criminal justice, or other related social sciences. Also note: "Applicants will be considered to have met the educational requirements once they are within two months of graduating with a qualifying degree/credits." That is also part of qualifications. Thus Qualifications section:

            Qualifications

            • Six months of experience as a County Caseworker 1
            • Successful completion of the County Social Casework Intern program
            • A bachelor's degree with a social welfare major
            • A bachelor's degree which includes or is supplemented by 12 college credits in sociology, social welfare, psychology, gerontology, criminal justice, or other related social sciences and one year of professional social casework experience in a public or private social service agency

            Applicants will be considered to have met the educational requirements once they are within two months of graduating with a qualifying degree/credits.

            We need to ensure we didn't lose any detail: The original had semicolons after each option; we removed them but kept meaning. Now Schedule section we already have. Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. Thus final output:
