We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills maybe, Benefits, Pay, Schedule only if present. The posting includes "ABOUT THE JOB" (we can map to About the role). Then "ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS/KEY RESPONSIBILITIES" -> Responsibilities. Then "QUALIFICATIONS" -> Qualifications. Then "ADDITIONAL SKILLS REQUIRED:" -> Skills. Then "SAFETY EXPECTATIONS", "ENVIRONMENTAL / WORKING CONDITIONS", "PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS" maybe not needed as sections unless they have specific content; but they are present. However instruction: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. Those sections have content (safety expectations, environmental/working conditions, physical requirements). Should we include them? The allowed headings list includes About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. It does not list Safety, Environment, Physical. So we should not create sections for those; we should fold that content into maybe a short paragraph under Qualifications or Skills? But instruction: "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., implying those are examples, but we should likely stick to those headings. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can combine safety, environment, physical into maybe a "Requirements" section? But there is already Qualifications. Could create a "Requirements" section for those. However the posting already has Qualifications and Additional Skills. We could treat Qualifications as qualifications, Additional Skills as Skills. Safety etc could be omitted? But we must preserve ALL substantive information; cannot drop. So we need to include that info somewhere. Could add a section "Requirements" for safety/environment/physical. Or we could add a paragraph under Qualifications. The instruction: "Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., implying those are examples, but we should likely stick to those headings. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can combine safety, environment, physical into maybe a "Requirements" section? But there is already Qualifications. Could create a "Requirements" section for those. However the posting already has Qualifications and Additional Skills. We could treat Qualifications as qualifications, Additional Skills as Skills. Safety etc could be omitted? But we must preserve ALL substantive information; cannot drop. So we need to include that info somewhere. Could add a section "Requirements" for safety/environment/physical. Or we could add a paragraph under Qualifications. The instruction: "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we can use Requirements heading for safety/env/physical. That seems appropriate.
Thus sections:
- About the role (from ABOUT THE JOB)
- Responsibilities (ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS/KEY RESPONSIBILITIES)
- Qualifications (MINIMUM ACCEPTABLE TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE plus maybe the earlier QUALIFICATIONS bullet list? Actually there is a "QUALIFICATIONS" paragraph before MINIMUM ACCEPTABLE TRAINING... The text: "QUALIFICATIONS Strong data base, software and operating systems background. Strong Analytical Skills. Experience with ESRI ArcGIS Desktop or ArcPro software including ESRI Apps like Field Maps/ArcGIS Online (AGOL)/ESRI Portal and Microsoft Office suite (Excel, Word, PowerPoint) Required. File and generate reports. Clerical skills. Ability to understand and carry out complex oral and written directions. Ability to work under pressure with good organizational skills. Ability to work in a team environment. Initiative in recognizing need for improvement in, or adaptation of, existing systems and effecting changes in them. Tracking down missing and misfiled items. Accuracy in filing. Physical condition commensurate with the demands of the position."
Then "MINIMUM ACCEPTABLE TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE: Bachelor’s degree in a related field and/or a minimum of three to five years GIS experience."
Then "ADDITIONAL SKILLS REQUIRED: Strong data base, software and operating systems background. Strong Analytical Skills. Very meticulous. Good problem-solving skills. Good communication skills. Must be able to prioritize projects and multi-task."
Thus we have overlapping content. We should preserve all; we can combine into Qualifications and Skills sections. Perhaps Qualifications includes the MINIMUM ACCEPTABLE TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE and the earlier QUALIFICATIONS list. Skills includes ADDITIONAL SKILLS REQUIRED.
Safety expectations, environmental/working conditions, physical requirements go into Requirements section.
Now we need to strip boilerplate: Disclaimer line at end: "Disclaimer: This job description is not intended to be an exhaustive list..." Should be removed as boilerplate? It's not cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc but it's a disclaimer; likely considered boilerplate. The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." This disclaimer is legal boilerplate; remove.
Also remove duplicated lines: there may be duplicates like "Strong data base, software and operating systems background." appears multiple times; we should keep only once? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." Duplicated lines: we should not remove substantive info just because it's duplicated? It says remove duplicated lines. So we should deduplicate repeated sentences. We'll need to combine.
Let's extract content.
ABOUT THE JOB:
"Under general supervision, the GIS Analyst I provides Geographic Information System (GIS) support in the development and maintenance of geospatial data repositories. The GIS Analyst II is responsible for providing first and second tier support to GIS users as well as collaborating with stakeholders to guide development of new and existing GIS systems."
That's the about.
ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS/KEY RESPONSIBILITIES list:
- Reviews and interprets data sources and uses basic GIS software functions to enter, edit, and update GIS spatial data, including points, lines, and polygons, and attribute data into databases or layers, following standard procedures.
- Creates and publishes hosted feature layers and webmaps to AGOL and Enterprise.
- Writes, updates, and maintains scripts to assist in automation and integration of new systems.
- Defines GIS product needs per request, works with supervisor or requestor to ensure compliance with identified need.
- Utilizes appropriate application to develop and prepare the GIS product using department standards.
- Works with end users to analyze, configure, and/or tailor GIS web mapping applications to fit their requirements.
- Provides user training in the use of GIS software and/or manuals; coordinates and schedules training classes; develops, maintains, verifies, and updates operational procedures and documentation.
- Updates trackers based on project progress.
- Imports and exports data in a variety of formats into/from existing or new data sources.
- Other duties as assigned.
QUALIFICATIONS (first block):
- Strong data base, software and operating systems background.
- Strong Analytical Skills.
- Experience with ESRI ArcGIS Desktop or ArcPro software including ESRI Apps like Field Maps/ArcGIS Online (AGOL)/ESRI Portal and Microsoft Office suite (Excel, Word, PowerPoint) Required.
- File and generate reports.
- Clerical skills.
- Ability to understand and carry out complex oral and written directions.
- Ability to work under pressure with good organizational skills.
- Ability to work in a team environment.
- Initiative in recognizing need for improvement in, or adaptation of, existing systems and effecting changes in them.
- Tracking down missing and misfiled items.
- Accuracy in filing.
- Physical condition commensurate with the demands of the position.
MINIMUM ACCEPTABLE TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE:
- Bachelor’s degree in a related field and/or a minimum of three to five years GIS experience.
ADDITIONAL SKILLS REQUIRED:
- Strong data base, software and operating systems background.
- Strong Analytical Skills.
- Very meticulous.
- Good problem-solving skills.
- Good communication skills.
- Must be able to prioritize projects and multi-task.
SAFETY EXPECTATIONS:
- Compliance with company safety policies, PPE, safe driving, DOT requirements, etc.
ENVIRONMENTAL / WORKING CONDITIONS:
- Work is primarily performed in a professional office environment.
- Occasional business travel may be required based on business needs.
PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS:
- Ability to perform the essential functions of the position with or without reasonable accommodation.
- Requires the ability to communicate effectively and utilize standard office technology and equipment.
- May require remaining in a stationary position and moving throughout the work environment as needed to perform job responsibilities.
Now we need to deduplicate repeated lines: "Strong data base, software and operating systems background." appears in QUALIFICATIONS and ADDITIONAL SKILLS REQUIRED. Also "Strong Analytical Skills." appears twice. We'll keep one instance each, maybe under Qualifications or Skills. Since they are duplicated, we should remove duplicate lines. We'll keep them in one place; perhaps under Qualifications (since it's first). Then Skills section will have the remaining unique items: Very meticulous, Good problem-solving skills, Good communication skills, Must be able to prioritize projects and multi-task.
Also "Physical condition commensurate with the demands of the position." appears in QUALIFICATIONS block. That's similar to physical requirements but we keep.
Now we need to format as HTML.
