We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, but remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Also remove application instructions. Must not include placeholder sections.
We need to parse the posting.
Key content:
- Position/Program Information: Exam Number PH2576D, Type Of Recruitment: We welcome applications from anyone! First Day Of Filing: Monday, September 28, 2026, at 8:30 a.m. (PT) - Continuous. We will keep accepting applications until the position is filled. The application window may close unexpectedly once we have enough qualified candidates.

- About This Position: description.
- Essential Job Functions: list of duties (many bullet-like sentences). We need to put these under Responsibilities as
- .
- Requirements: OPTION I, OPTION II, OPTION III, License, Physical Class, Special Requirement Information (including details about documents). Also Desirable Qualification: Additional work experience beyond the Requirements to Qualify.
- Additional Information: EXAMINATION CONTENT: assessment type etc. Eligibility Information & Vacancy Information. Available Shift Any, including evenings, nights, weekends and holidays.
- APPLICATION AND FILING INFORMATION: How To Apply (online only) etc. This is application instructions; we must remove application instructions per rule: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should drop the "How To Apply" section.
We need to keep substantive info: exam number, type of recruitment, first day of filing, continuous, special salary info (MAPP), benefits, about position, essential job functions (responsibilities), requirements (options, license, physical, special requirement), desirable qualification, examination content, eligibility info, available shift.
We must not include Pay section unless posting actually states them. There's special salary info but not explicit pay range. It says subject to MAPP guidelines. That is not a specific pay figure. The rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Benefits are stated (strong public-sector benefits package). So Benefits section is okay. Pay: not explicit salary range, just mention of MAPP. Should we include Pay? The rule says never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state "SPECIAL SALARY INFORMATION" but not actual numbers. It's still salary information. Might be considered stating them? It says "Initial salary placement and subsequent salary adjustments will be made in accordance with MAPP guidelines and regulations." That's not a specific number. I'd interpret that as not providing explicit pay, so we should not create a Pay section. However, we could include the special salary info under a generic "About the role" maybe. But we have to follow instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could combine some info.
We need sections: About the role (maybe include description of position), Responsibilities (essential job functions), Requirements (options, license, physical, special requirement), Qualifications (maybe desirable qualification?), Skills (maybe not explicit), Benefits, Schedule (available shift). Pay omitted.
We also have exam number etc. Could be placed in a short
under About the role or separate metadata. The rule: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we can include exam number etc in a short paragraph. We must not include application instructions (How To Apply). So drop that. We must not include duplicated lines. Now craft HTML. Structure:
