for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc as headings; can fold minor metadata into short
or drop it. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Must preserve all substantive information. We need to parse the posting.

Then Minimum Qualifications: Knowledge of ... Ability to ... Required: Class D Driver’s License Ability to obtain and maintain: Specials Class Engineer’s License. DOLI Unlicensed Individual Electrical Work Registration within 6 months. DOLI Unlicensed Individual Plumbing Work Registration within 6 months. Preferred Qualifications: Carpentry skills/experience. AAS Degree in Facilities System Technology or Heating, Ventilation, AC Technology with at least two (2) years of experience working in building maintenance or building trades. Knowledge and application of word processing software. Ability to collect, combine, organize, and accurately describe available information in the form of reports. Ability to perform skilled work in a number of trade areas and to assist with more difficult work. Additional Requirements: background check components. Benefits: list of benefits. Also there is a paragraph about "How To Apply" etc which we must remove (application instructions). Also contact info etc remove. We need to decide sections. We have: - About the role: could be the introductory paragraph describing role and mission. That is substantive. - Responsibilities: list of duties (the bullet list after "This position performs semi-skilled jobs..."). - Requirements: could be Minimum Qualifications (knowledge, ability, required licenses). Could also include Additional Requirements (background check). Might combine. - Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications. - Skills: maybe we can extract skills from knowledge/ability etc. But we already have Requirements and Qualifications; maybe we can put skills under Requirements? The instruction says use sections only when posting has real specific content. We have content for About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (minimum qualifications), Qualifications (preferred), Benefits, Pay (salary range), Schedule (days of work Monday-Friday, shift not applicable). Also maybe Work Hours? It says Work Shift/Work Hours: Not Applicable Shift. That's not specific; we could skip schedule if not specific? But we have Days of Work: Monday - Friday, that is schedule info. So we can include Schedule section with that. Pay: we have salary range. Benefits: we have benefits list. We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual salary range, so Pay section is valid. Schedule: we have Days of Work: Monday - Friday. That's specific. Work Shift/Work Hours: Not Applicable Shift is not specific; we can ignore that. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to output HTML fragment only, no /. Use
for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must not repeat job title as heading. So we don't put "General Repair Worker" as heading.
We must not put Job ID etc as headings; we can include minor metadata in a short
maybe under About the role? But we could drop it. The instruction: "do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." So we could include a short paragraph with location, agency, etc. But we already have About the role prose; we could incorporate location etc there. However we must preserve ALL substantive information. So we need to keep location, agency, full/part time, etc. Those are substantive. We can include them in About the role paragraph or maybe a separate "Overview" but we don't have a heading for that; we could just include them in About the role paragraph.
Thus About the role paragraph could include: Job Class: General Repair Worker, Agency: Transportation Dept, Location: Oakdale, Full-Time, etc. But we must not repeat job title as heading; but we can mention it in paragraph.
We need to ensure we don't lose any substantive info: Telework Eligible: No, Regular/Temporary: Unlimited, Who May Apply: Open to all qualified job seekers, Date Posted, Closing Date, Hiring Agency/Seniority Unit, Division/Unit, Work Shift/Work Hours: Not Applicable Shift (maybe ignore as not specific), Days of Work: Monday - Friday, Travel Required: No, Salary Range, Classified Status, Bargaining Unit/Union, Work Area, FLSA Status, Designated in Connect 700 Program for Applicants with Disabilities: Yes.
We need to preserve all that. Some may be considered minor metadata; but we should keep them somewhere.
We could create a short
under About the role that lists these details as a sentence.
