We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions). Also remove sections like "Selection Process", "Background Check", "Drug And Alcohol Testing", "Union Representation", "Eligible List Statement", "Interview Selection", etc? Those are not among allowed headings; we can either drop them or incorporate into appropriate sections if they contain relevant info (like Requirements). The instructions: "Use
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions). Also remove sections like "Selection Process", "Background Check", "Drug And Alcohol Testing", "Union Representation", "Eligible List Statement", "Interview Selection", etc? Those are not among allowed headings; we can either drop them or incorporate into appropriate sections if they contain relevant info (like Requirements). The instructions: "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we should map content to these headings. Likely we need sections: About the role (position description), Responsibilities (job duties), Requirements (minimum education, experience, licenses), Qualifications (maybe same as Requirements?), Skills (knowledge, skills, abilities), Benefits (none given), Pay (none), Schedule (flexible work arrangements mentioned). Also Working Conditions maybe part of Responsibilities or Requirements? Could be included in About the role? But we should include only if content present.
We have content: Position Description: "To perform specialized work in the installation, removal, maintenance and repair of electronic equipment and accessories. This job classification is hired in one of two City Departments. 1 911 Radio Communications Electronics Shop, or 2 Public Works Parking Meters." Also Work Location: flexible work arrangements hybrid.
Job Duties And Responsibilities: detailed for Radio Communications Electronics Shop and Parking Systems.
Required Qualifications: Minimum Education, Minimum Experience, Licenses/Certifications.
Knowledge, Skills And Abilities: list.
Working Conditions: Shop environment and field work, indoor/outdoor, exposure to high voltage and heights.
Selection Process etc: not needed for headings; we can drop.
Union Representation etc: drop.
Thus we will produce sections:
