Entry-Level Structural Engineer
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We must include sections only when posting has real specific content. Let's parse.
Job Description: AECOM Buildings + Places is seeking an Entry-Level Structural Engineer to be based in Virginia Beach, VA. The ideal candidate will provide support on a diverse array of exciting projects, developing calculations, drawings, and reports. This role will encompass a wide range of projects across various industries, including government, commercial, and industrial sectors. Additionally, the position offers substantial mentorship opportunities while enhancing technical expertise in structural engineering. This position is expected to begin as soon as possible.
About Buildings + Places: description.
Responsibilities: list bullet points under "The responsibilities of this position include, but are not limited to:" then bullet list.
Qualifications: Minimum Requirements and Preferred Qualifications.
Skills: maybe from Preferred Qualifications: Experience with Revit, Bluebeam, Microsoft Office Suite; Strong written and oral communication skills; Self-motivated with strong work ethic.
Benefits: "At AECOM, we are proud to offer comprehensive benefits..." includes list of benefits.
Pay: "Offered rate of compensation will be based on individual education, qualifications, experience, and work location. The range for this position is $70000 to $85000." Also later "Compensation: USD 70000 - USD 85000 - yearly". So we have pay range.
Schedule: "This position requires a hybrid work schedule which includes in office work in Virginia Beach, VA. The selected candidate must be available to work in Virginia Beach, VA on a scheduled basis." Also "Work Location Model: Hybrid". So schedule info.
We also have "Relocation assistance is not available for this position." Could be part of Benefits? Not needed.
We need to avoid boilerplate: EEO, legal, etc. Remove duplicated lines.
We need to not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID.
We need to output only HTML fragment.
Structure: Use for each section heading. Under each heading, appropriate content:
for prose,
- for lists.
We need to decide sections: About the role (maybe combine job description and About Buildings + Places?), Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe Minimum Requirements?), Qualifications (maybe Preferred Qualifications?), Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
But we must not create sections with filler. Ensure each has substantive content.
Let's extract content:
About the role: Could be the initial paragraph describing role: "AECOM Buildings + Places is seeking an Entry-Level Structural Engineer to be based in Virginia Beach, VA. The ideal candidate will provide support on a diverse array of exciting projects, developing calculations, drawings, and reports. This role will encompass a wide range of projects across various industries, including government, commercial, and industrial sectors. Additionally, the position offers substantial mentorship opportunities while enhancing technical expertise in structural engineering. This position is expected to begin as soon as possible."
Also maybe include About Buildings + Places description? That could be part of About the role or separate? The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, etc. So we can put role description under About the role. The Buildings + Places description could be considered part of About the role as well, but maybe we can include it as part of About the role (makes sense). We'll combine.
Responsibilities: bullet list.
Requirements: Minimum Requirements (Bachelor's degree, Driver's License, MVR review, US citizenship). Could be under Requirements.
Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications (internship, FE license, experience with Revit, Bluebeam, MS Office, communication skills, self-motivated). Could be under Qualifications.
Skills: maybe we could separate but we already have skills in Preferred Qualifications. Could combine Qualifications and Skills? But we need to follow headings list; we can still include Skills if we have specific skill content not covered elsewhere. However Preferred Qualifications already includes skills like Revit, Bluebeam, MS Office, communication, self-motivated. Could treat that as Skills section. But we also have Qualifications (education, license). Might be better to have Requirements (minimum) and Qualifications (preferred) and Skills (technical/soft). But we risk duplication. Let's see: The posting has Minimum Requirements and Preferred Qualifications. We could map Minimum Requirements to Requirements section, Preferred Qualifications to Qualifications section, and then maybe Skills not needed separately. However the instruction says we can include Skills section if there is real specific content. We could still include Skills but ensure not duplicate. Could extract skills: Experience with Revit, Bluebeam, Microsoft Office Suite; Strong written and oral communication skills; Self-motivated with strong work ethic. Those are indeed skills. We could put them under Skills. Then Qualifications could be about education/license etc. But we already have Requirements for minimum. Let's decide:
- Requirements: Minimum Requirements (Bachelor's degree, Driver's License, MVR review, US citizenship).
- Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications (internship, FE license).
- Skills: Experience with Revit, Bluebeam, MS Office; Strong written and oral communication skills; Self-motivated with strong work ethic.
That avoids duplication.
Benefits: paragraph about comprehensive benefits list.
Pay: salary range.
Schedule: hybrid work schedule, in-office in Virginia Beach.
Now we need to ensure we don't include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to remove boilerplate: EEO, legal, etc. Also remove duplicated lines like "AECOM is proud to offer comprehensive benefits..." we keep that as benefits.
We need to not include navigation etc.
Now produce HTML.

Pay
Offered rate of compensation will be based on individual education, qualifications, experience, and work location. The range for this position is $70000 to $85000.
Optionally also mention yearly. NextSchedule
This position requires a hybrid work schedule which includes in office work in Virginia Beach, VA. The selected candidate must be available to work in Virginia Beach, VA on a scheduled basis.
We could also mention Work Location Model: Hybrid but it's covered. Now ensure we didn't include any boilerplate like "EEO", "All your information will be kept confidential", etc. We removed. Check for duplicated lines: we didn't include "AECOM Buildings + Places is seeking..." etc only once. Check for any mention of "Relocation assistance is not available" - we omitted; it's not required but could be included under Benefits? It's a negative; but we can omit as not required. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should include that piece: "Relocation assistance is not available for this position." That's substantive. Where to put? Could be under Benefits or maybe a separate note. Since we have Benefits section, we could add a sentence: "Relocation assistance is not available for this position." But that is not a benefit; it's a limitation. Could be placed under About the role or maybe a separate note. However we must preserve all substantive info. So we need to include it somewhere. Perhaps add aunder About the role after the description? Or under Benefits as a note. But Benefits section is about benefits offered; adding a negative might be odd but still okay. Alternatively we could add a separate section like "Notes" but not in allowed headings. Better to incorporate into About the role or maybe under Requirements? It's not a requirement. I'd add a short paragraph after the About the role description: "Relocation assistance is not available for this position." That preserves it. Also "This position requires a hybrid work schedule which includes in office work in Virginia Beach, VA. The selected candidate must be available to work in Virginia Beach, VA on a scheduled basis." Already in Schedule. Also "Sponsorship for US employment authorization is not available now or in the future for this position." That's substantive. Where to put? Could be under Requirements or Qualifications? It's about sponsorship. Could be under Requirements as a note. We'll add a
- under Requirements maybe? But it's not a minimum requirement; it's a condition. Could add under Requirements as a bullet: "Sponsorship for US employment authorization is not available now or in the future." Or under Qualifications. I'll add under Requirements as an additional bullet.
Also "As a condition of employment, selected candidate must pass a Motor Vehicle Records review." Already in Requirements.
Also "Offered rate of compensation will be based on individual education, qualifications, experience, and work location." Already in Pay.
Also "At AECOM, we are committed to maintaining a secure and trustworthy recruitment process and take any fraudulent hiring activity seriously. To support this commitment, all newly hired employees are required to attend an in-person Day 1 onboarding at an AECOM office location as a condition of employment." That's substantive; could be under About the role or maybe a separate note. We'll add a paragraph under About the role after the description? Or maybe under Requirements? It's about onboarding. Could add a
under About the role after the description. Also "Learn more at aecom.com." That's boilerplate? It's a link; maybe considered navigation? Might be considered boilerplate but it's substantive? It's a call to action; but it's not essential job info. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. "Learn more at aecom.com." is like a navigation/link; could be considered navigation. Safer to remove. Also "AECOM is the global infrastructure leader..." etc is company description; we already used some in About the role? Actually we used the initial company description at top
