General Supply Specialist
for each section: Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Schedule.
We must not repeat job title. No metadata like Job ID.
We need to preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Also remove duplicated lines.
We need to extract duties list: bullet points after "Duties Help As a General Supply Specialist you will be responsible for the following duties:" then list items separated by periods? Actually each duty is a sentence. We'll convert to - .
List:
- Research and resolve issues with shelf-life determinations, expiration notices, reject and shipyard authorized use list.
- Write technical descriptions for new stock item records and ordering data.
- Resolve issues with quality deficiency and supply discrepancy reports.
- Screen supply and inventory requisitions using various automated supply management systems.
- Determine inter-changeability and/or substitution of non-available items.
- Identify and recommend alternative sources of supply via procurement or manufacturing.
- Provide logistical support to other DLA Weapons Support shipyard sites as needed.
- Respond to inquiries regarding material procurement, repair and disposal.
Now Requirements: Conditions of employment list: Must be a U.S. citizen; Tour of Duty: 1st shift, set schedule, 7am to 3:30pm, Monday through Friday; Security Requirements: Non-Critical Sensitive with Confidential Access; Appointment is subject to the completion of a favorable suitability or fitness determination, where reciprocity cannot be applied; unfavorably adjudicated background checks will be grounds for removal.; Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA): Non-Exempt; Selective Service Requirement: Males born after 12-31-59 must be registered or exempt from Selective Service.; Recruitment Incentives: Not Authorized; Bargaining Unit Status: Yes; Selectees are required to have a REAL ID or other acceptable identification documents to access certain federal facilities. See https://www.tsa.gov/real-id for more information.
We need to keep all substantive info. Some of these are metadata but they are conditions of employment. We'll include them as list items under Requirements.
Qualifications: includes Specialized Experience description, Education Substitution, Combination, Experience refers to paid and unpaid..., Education Are you using your education to qualify? etc. Also Additional information about ICT, Reemployed Annuitants, Veterans, Drug-Free Workplace Policy, etc. Many of those are boilerplate but some are substantive like Drug-Free Workplace Policy details. We need to preserve all substantive info; but we should remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The Drug-Free Workplace Policy seems substantive; we should keep it. Also Additional information about ICT (508 conformant) maybe boilerplate but it's about accessibility; could be considered boilerplate but it's specific. Might keep? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. The ICT 508 conformant is legal but maybe not boilerplate? It's a requirement. Might keep as part of Additional information. However we need to avoid too many thin sections. Perhaps we can combine Qualifications and Additional information into one Qualifications section, as they are all qualifications-related.
We'll produce a Qualifications section with paragraphs covering specialized experience, education substitution, combination, experience definition, education documentation, additional information (ICT, reemployed annuitants, veterans, drug-free workplace). We'll keep the drug-free policy details.
We must not include headings with filler text. Ensure we have substantive content.
Now Benefits section: The paragraph about benefits: "A career with the U.S. government provides employees with a comprehensive benefits package. As a federal employee, you and your family will have access to a range of benefits that are designed to make your federal career very rewarding. Opens in a new windowLearn more about federal benefits. Review our benefits Eligibility for benefits depends on the type of position you hold and whether your position is full-time, part-time or intermittent. Contact the hiring agency for more information on the specific benefits offered."
We need to remove duplicated lines and maybe the "Opens in a new windowLearn more about federal benefits." is like a link; we can keep the sentence but remove the "Opens in a new window" maybe it's boilerplate. We'll keep the core: "A career with the U.S. government provides employees with a comprehensive benefits package. As a federal employee, you and your family will have access to a range of benefits that are designed to make your federal career very rewarding. Review our benefits Eligibility for benefits depends on the type of position you hold and whether your position is full-time, part-time or intermittent. Contact the hiring agency for more information on the specific benefits offered."
We'll make a paragraph.
Schedule section: Tour of duty: 1st shift, set schedule, 7am to 3:30pm, Monday through Friday.

Let's draft:
Specialized Experience: One year of specialized experience that equipped you with the particular competencies to successfully perform the duties of the position, and that is typically in or related to the position to be filled. To qualify at the GS-11 level, applicants must possess one year of specialized experience equivalent to the GS-09 level or equivalent under other pay systems in the Federal service, military or private sector. Applicants must meet eligibility requirements including time-in-grade (General Schedule (GS) positions only), time-after-competitive appointment, minimum qualifications, and any other regulatory requirements by the cut-off/closing date of the announcement. Creditable Specialized Experience Includes: Evaluate and recommend modifications to material descriptions and specifications; Identify actions with adverse effect on material movement records; Research and analyze history reports; Identify the most cost-efficient mode of transportation; Reconcile all documentation and expenditures on a monthly basis.
Education Substitution: Such education must demonstrate the knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to do the work. Education must be from a college or university accredited by an organization approved by the U.S. Department of Education. If using education to meet basic qualifications, YOU MUST SUBMIT A TRANSCRIPT as supplemental documentation. To qualify based on education in lieu of specialized experience, you must possess a Ph.D. or equivalent doctoral degree or, three (3) full years of progressively higher level graduate education leading to such a degree or LL.M. if related.
Combination: Combinations of successfully completed post-high school education and experience may be used to meet total qualification requirements for grade level GS-11 and may be computed by first determining the applicant's total qualifying experience as a percentage of the experience required for the grade level; then determining the applicant's education as a percentage of the education required for the grade level; and then adding the two percentages. The total percentages must equal at least 100 percent to qualify an applicant for that grade level. Only graduate education in excess of the amount required for the next lower grade level may be used to qualify applicants for positions at grade GS-11. 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). Volunteer work helps build critical competencies, knowledge, and skills and can provide valuable training and experience that translates directly to paid employment. You will receive credit for all qualifying experience, including volunteer experience.
Education: Are you using your education to qualify? You MUST provide transcripts or other documentation to support your educational claims. Unless otherwise stated: Unofficial transcripts are acceptable at time of application. GRADUATE EDUCATION: One academic year of graduate education is considered to be the number of credits hours that your graduate school has determined to represent one academic year of full-time study. Such study may have been performed on a full-time or part-time basis. If you cannot obtain your graduate school's definition of one year of graduate study, 18 semester hours (or 27 quarter hours) should be considered as satisfying the requirement for one year of full-time graduate study. FOREIGN EDUCATION: If you are using education completed in foreign colleges or universities to meet the qualification requirements, you must show that the education credentials have been evaluated by a private organization that specializes in interpretation of foreign education programs and such education has been deemed equivalent to that gained in an accredited U.S. education program; or full credit has been given for the courses at a U.S. accredited college or university.
