We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting, but we can format them as lists or paragraphs.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc.
We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. The text includes some duplicated lines like "The position may report to state and/or federal supervisory personnel." appears twice. We should keep only one instance? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." Duplicated lines are still substantive but duplicate; we could keep one to avoid redundancy but it's not removing substantive info? It says remove duplicated lines. So we should deduplicate.
Also "Incumbents of this position are considered essential personnel." appears twice. Remove duplicate.
Also "Ability to work comfortably at heights such as climbing ladders, working on scaffolds, platforms and lifts." appears in both Job Requirements and Qualifications; we can keep one instance under appropriate section.
