We need to output HTML fragment with sections: Duties (maybe heading "Responsibilities"? The posting uses "Duties". The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should map Duties to

Responsibilities

maybe. The instruction: "use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we should use those exact headings if content exists. The posting has Duties, Requirements, Qualifications, Additional information (some benefits etc). No explicit Benefits, Pay, Schedule sections. So we should only include sections where there is real specific content. We need to preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate like EEO, etc. The posting includes many paragraphs about conditions of employment, qualifications, etc. We need to extract duties list, requirements list, qualifications list, and maybe additional info like "Additional information" containing benefits etc. But we should not create Benefits/Pay/Schedule unless explicitly stated. The posting mentions "A career with the U.S. government provides employees with a comprehensive benefits package." but not specific benefits. So we should not create a Benefits section because it's generic. Also mentions "Salary includes applicable locality pay or Local Market Supplement." That's pay info! It says salary includes applicable locality pay or Local Market Supplement. That is specific pay info. So we should include a Pay section with that sentence. Also mentions "Direct Deposit of Pay is required." That's also pay. So we can include Pay section. Schedule? Not mentioned. So omit. Benefits? Not specific, so omit. Skills? Not explicit separate; but duties and qualifications cover skills. Could we create Skills section? Not needed. Thus sections: Responsibilities (from Duties), Requirements, Qualifications, Pay. We need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For prose use

    . We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include each bullet from duties: "Assist in the design and development of electrical engineering devices, equipment, facilities, or systems using established criteria or specifications." etc. There are four duty sentences. We'll put each as

  • . Requirements: The posting has "Conditions of employment" bullet list: "Appointment may be subject to a suitability or fitness determination, as determined by a completed background investigation." etc. Also "Must sign a mobility agreement if selected." etc. Also "Male applicants born after December 31, 1959, must complete a Pre-Employment Certification Statement for Selective Service Registration." etc. Also "Must comply with Drug Testing Program Requirements." etc. Also "Must be able to obtain and maintain a Top security clearance." We'll list each as
  • . Qualifications: This is long. We need to preserve all substantive info. Should we break into sub-sections? The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we can keep Qualifications as one section with maybe multiple paragraphs and lists. But we need to use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Qualifications includes many paragraphs and lists (like Basic Requirement, Specialized Experience, etc). We should convert those into lists where appropriate. We need to be careful not to lose detail. Let's extract the qualifications section text. From posting: "Qualifications Who May Apply: US Citizens In order to qualify, you must meet the education and/or experience requirements described below. Experience refers to paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work done through National Service programs (e.g., Peace Corps, AmeriCorps) and other organizations (e.g., professional; philanthropic; religious; spiritual; community; student; social). You will receive credit for all qualifying experience, including volunteer experience. Your resume must clearly describe your relevant experience; if qualifying based on education, your transcripts will be required as part of your application. Additional information about transcripts is Basic Requirement For Electrical Engineer: Degree: Bachelor's degree (or higher degree) in engineering. To be acceptable, the program must: (1) lead to a bachelor's degree (or higher degree) in a school of engineering with at least one program accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET); OR (2) include differential and integral calculus and courses (more advanced than first-year physics and chemistry) in five of the following seven areas of engineering science or physics: (a) statics, dynamics; (b) strength of materials (stress-strain relationships); (c) fluid mechanics, hydraulics; (d) thermodynamics; (e) electrical fields and circuits; (f) nature and properties of materials (relating particle and aggregate structure to properties); and (g) any other comparable area of fundamental engineering science or physics, such as optics, heat transfer, soil mechanics, or electronics. OR Combination of Education and Experience: College-level education, training, and/or technical experience that furnished (1) a thorough knowledge of the physical and mathematical sciences underlying engineering, and (2) a good understanding, both theoretical and practical, of the engineering sciences and techniques and their applications to one of the branches of engineering. The adequacy of such background must be demonstrated by one of the following: Professional registration or licensure - Current registration as an Engineer Intern (EI), Engineer in Training (EIT), or licensure as a Professional Engineer (PE) by any State, the District of Columbia, Guam, or Puerto Rico. Absent other means of qualifying under this standard, those applicants who achieved such registration by means other than written test (e.g., State grandfather or eminence provisions) are eligible only for positions that are within or closely related to the specialty field of their registration. For example, an applicant who attains registration through a State Board's eminence provision as a manufacturing engineer typically would be rated eligible only for manufacturing engineering positions. Written Test - Evidence of having successfully passed the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) examination, or any other written test required for professional registration, by an engineering licensure board in the various States, the District of Columbia, Guam, or Puerto Rico. Specified academic courses - Successful completion of at least 60 semester hours of courses in the physical, mathematical, and engineering sciences and that included the courses specified in A above. The courses must be fully acceptable toward meeting the requirements of an engineering program. Related curriculum - Successful completion of a curriculum leading to a bachelor's degree in an appropriate scientific field, e.g., engineering technology, physics, chemistry, architecture, computer science, mathematics, hydrology, or geology, may be accepted in lieu of a degree in engineering, provided the applicant has had at least 1 year of professional engineering experience acquired under professional engineering supervision and guidance. Ordinarily there should be either an established plan of intensive training to develop professional engineering competence, or several years of prior professional engineering-type experience, e.g., in interdisciplinary positions. In Addition To Meeting The Basic Requirement Above, To Qualify For This Position You Must Also Meet The Qualification Requirements Listed Below: Specialized Experience: One year of specialized experience which includes assisting in the design of electrical engineering equipment or systems using established criteria or specifications; or, monitoring testing of electrical engineering systems to ensure proper functionality; or, identifying problems and recommending corrective action to electrical engineering systems. This definition of specialized experience is typical of work performed at the second lower grade/level position in the federal service (GS-05). OR Education: One full year of graduate level education in a field which demonstrates the knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to do the work of the position, such as: Engineering. OR Superior Academic Achievement: Successful completion of all the requirements for a bachelor's degree with Superior Academic Achievement (S.A.A.).
