Crime Prevention Specialist - Police

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we have content: About The Department, Position Duties, Minimum Qualifications, Desirable Qualifications, Other Qualifications Competencies, Selection Process, Additional Information, AI and the Hiring Process. We must use

for section headings (e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). But we can use other headings? The instruction: "use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It suggests we should use those headings if they exist. However we can also use other headings? It says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely they expect we map content to those standard headings where appropriate. But we must include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. So we need to decide which sections have content. We have: - About the role: maybe "About The Department" could map to About the role? Or we could have "About the role" heading with description of role. The posting includes "About The Department" and "Position Duties". Could combine into About the role and Responsibilities. - Responsibilities: we have Position Duties (list of duties). So we can make a Responsibilities section with

• for duties. - Requirements: Minimum Qualifications (education/experience, driver's license, background). Could be Requirements. - Qualifications: Desirable Qualifications (Bachelor's degree, bilingual, etc.) Could be Qualifications. - Skills: Other Qualifications Competencies (list of competencies). Could be Skills. - Benefits: Not mentioned. So we should NOT include Benefits section. - Pay: Not mentioned. So omit. - Schedule: Not mentioned. So omit. We also have Selection Process, Additional Information, AI and the Hiring Process. Those are not in the list but we could still include them as sections? The instruction says use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but says "use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." Likely they want us to use those standard headings where applicable, and maybe we can also include other headings if needed, but better to stick to those. However we have substantive content like Selection Process etc. Should we include them? The instruction: "IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text". So we need to include sections for all substantive content. If we only allowed those specific headings, we would lose Selection Process etc. But maybe we can map Selection Process to "Requirements"? No. Better to include additional headings as needed, still using

  . The examples are not exhaustive. So we can use headings like Selection Process, Additional Information, AI and the Hiring Process. Thus we will produce sections:

  About the role

  (maybe combine About The Department and brief role description). Provide

  with description.

  Responsibilities

  with
  • list of duties from Position Duties.

    Requirements

    with
    • for Minimum Qualifications (education/experience, driver's license, background).

      Qualifications

      with
      • for Desirable Qualifications.

        Skills

        with
        • for Other Qualifications Competencies.

          Selection Process

          with

          describing process.

          Additional Information

          with

          covering Additional Information (employment eligibility, visa, etc.) and maybe contact info? Actually contact info is in Selection Process? It includes contact Sandra Garcia and Alexandria Rodriguez. Could be placed in Additional Information or separate Contact section. We'll put in Additional Information.

          AI and the Hiring Process

          with

          . We must not include boilerplate like EEO, equal opportunity, etc. Remove those lines. Also remove navigation, cookie, legal, duplicated lines, application instructions. We must preserve all substantive information. We need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. Not needed. We must not include placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We must not invent or summarize away detail. Keep details. We need to format lists properly. Let's extract content. About The Department paragraph: "Our diverse and inclusive workforce of more than 7,000 employees play a key role in the success of San José, the heart of the Silicon Valley. All City of San José employees work together as one team to make San José a vibrant, innovative, and desirable place to live and work. Visit here to learn more about our One Team Leadership Values and Expectations, including quality and excellent customer service and here to learn more about San José." But we should remove "Visit here to learn more..." maybe considered boilerplate? It's a link but not essential. Might be considered navigation? It's not EEO but it's a generic link. Might be considered boilerplate? The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." The "Visit here to learn more..." is like a navigation link; could be considered navigation. Safer to remove it. Keep the descriptive sentences about workforce and team. Thus About the role paragraph: "Our diverse and inclusive workforce of more than 7,000 employees play a key role in the success of San José, the heart of the Silicon Valley. All City of San José employees work together as one team to make San José a vibrant, innovative, and desirable place to live and work." Now Position Duties: we need to extract list of duties.
