We need to output HTML fragment with sections: Duties Summary? Actually the posting includes "Duties Summary" then "Requirements Qualifications". The instructions: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings. Include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. Remove boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Preserve all substantive information. We need to extract duties, responsibilities, requirements, qualifications, etc. The posting includes "Duties Summary" describing SES, position level I, salary range, bonuses, etc. Also "Requirements Qualifications" includes many details about ECQs, TQ, resume instructions, etc. We need to decide sections: maybe "Responsibilities" for duties summary, "Requirements" for qualifications? Or "Qualifications" for ECQ/TQ details. The instructions say we can use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should only include those that have content. We have salary range and bonus info: that could go under Pay. Also maybe Benefits? Not explicit benefits besides SES benefits link. Could include Benefits if we have info: mention SES employees eligible for bonuses and performance-based awards, and link to OPM for additional information and benefits. That's benefits info. We have duties: description of SES position level I, salary range, etc. Actually that's more about the position classification, not duties. The duties summary maybe just that. Could treat as "About the role" or "Responsibilities". The content: "This position is designated as SES, Career-Reserved. USDA structures its SES positions into position levels. This is a position level I with a salary range of $192,332 to $204,121 per year. Exceptions to the salary cap may be considered in certain circumstances. SES employees are also eligible to receive bonuses and performance-based awards. Visit http://www.opm.gov/ses/ for additional information and benefits for SES employees." That's more about role and compensation. Could split: About the role (SES, Career-Reserved, position level I). Pay (salary range, bonuses). Benefits (link to OPM for benefits). But we need to avoid thin sections. Maybe combine About the role and Pay? But instructions: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could have sections: About the role (includes SES designation, position level I), Responsibilities (maybe none?), Requirements (ECQs/TQs), Qualifications (maybe same as Requirements?), Skills (maybe ECQ competencies). But we need to avoid duplication. Better: Use "About the role" for position description (SES, Career-Reserved, position level I). Use "Pay" for salary range and bonuses. Use "Benefits" for link to OPM benefits. Use "Requirements" for resume-only, page limit, etc. Use "Qualifications" for ECQs and TQ details. Could also include "Skills" for ECQ competencies list. But we must not create sections with filler like "not specified". We have real content for each. Let's extract: About the role: - This position is designated as SES, Career-Reserved. - USDA structures its SES positions into position levels. - This is a position level I. Pay: - Salary range: $192,332 to $204,121 per year. - Exceptions to the salary cap may be considered in certain circumstances. - SES employees are also eligible to receive bonuses and performance-based awards. Benefits: - Visit http://www.opm.gov/ses/ for additional information and benefits for SES employees. Requirements: - Application process: RESUME-ONLY. Do NOT submit separate ECQ/TQ in lieu of a resume. - Candidates should be committed to improving efficiency of Federal government, passionate about ideals of American republic, committed to upholding rule of law and US Constitution. - Candidates will not be hired based on race, sex, color, religion, or national origin (EEO statement but we may drop as boilerplate? It's substantive? Might be considered boilerplate EEO; instructions say remove EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate. So we should drop that line.) - To meet minimum qualification requirements, you must show that you possess ECQ and TQ related to this position within your resume - NOT TO EXCEED 2 PAGES using 0.8-inch margins and 11-point font. - Resumes over 2-page limit will not be reviewed beyond page 2 or may be disqualified. - Resume should include examples of experience, education, accomplishments applicable to qualification(s). - If resume does not reflect demonstrated evidence, may not receive consideration. - NO requirement to prepare a narrative statement specifically addressing ECQs or TQs. - Note: Current career SES members, former career SES members with reinstatement eligibility, and SES Candidate Development Program graduates certified by OPM do NOT need to address ECQs. Qualifications: - ECQs: list of 5 with descriptions and competencies. - TQ: description: demonstrate knowledge of theories, principles, practices, techniques, innovations, trends in library science, information science, information technologies, knowledge management, technology management, or open science. Describe senior level experience leading/managing public research projects and programs, leveraging technology to enhance research and public access. - Also includes paragraph about SES and mission of USDA (maybe could be About the role). But we already have About the role. We could also include "Skills" for ECQ competencies list, but that may be redundant. We need to avoid duplication: ECQs already listed under Qualifications; we could keep them there. We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include the ECQ details exactly as given (maybe condensed but not summarizing away). We can keep them as list items. We must not include application instructions (like "Visit http://www.opm.gov/ses/ for additional information and benefits" is benefits, not application). The instruction to not submit separate ECQ/TQ is requirement. We must remove duplicated lines, cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. The EEO line we drop. Now produce HTML:

We might also include a paragraph about SES and USDA mission (the later paragraph). Could be part of About the role or maybe a separate "About USDA". But we already have About the role covering SES designation; the mission paragraph is substantive: "The Senior Executive Service (SES) is comprised of the men and women charged with leading the continuing transformation of the government... If you would like to work for a premier agency focused on enhancing the quality of life for the American people by supporting production of agriculture; ensuring safe, affordable, nutritious and accessible food supply; forest and range lands; supporting sound development of rural communities; providing economic opportunities for farm and rural residents; expanding global markets for agricultural and forest products and services; and working to reduce hunger in America and throughout the world, then the USDA is for you. To learn more about our agency, our exciting mission, vision and guiding principles, please visit http://www.usda.gov." That is substantive and could go under About the role or maybe a separate "About USDA". Since we have About the role already, we could append that paragraph there. Let's add to About the role paragraph after the position level I sentence. Thus About the role:
