Hwy Construction Technician I/II - Tecumseh
for each heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose. Do not repeat job title as heading. Do not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: Hiring Agency, Location, Hiring Rate? Actually Hiring Rate is pay, we keep in Pay section. Location maybe not needed? It's minor metadata; we can fold into a short
or drop. Probably we can include location in About the role paragraph? The instruction: "Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." So we can include location and hiring agency maybe in a short paragraph under About the role? But better to include location and agency in a short
before sections? The instruction: "Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences." So we can start with maybe a
containing location and agency? Not required but could be considered minor metadata. However they said "fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." So we can include a short
with location and agency. Then sections.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual content for Pay, Schedule, Benefits.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail.
Let's extract:
About the role: The mission statement: "The Nebraska Department of Transportation (NDOT) is seeking a dedicated and hardworking team player to join us in our mission to enhance the quality of life for Nebraskans by building and maintaining a convenient, safe, and innovative statewide transportation system!" Also maybe mention hiring agency and location. We'll include that as prose.
Responsibilities (Job Duties): list items.
Requirements / Qualifications: include Minimum Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications, Other, Knowledge, Skills, Abilities. Could be a combined list? Might be long; we can break into sub-sections? But only allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can use Requirements and Qualifications separate? The instruction says use headings for those exact strings. We can decide to use Requirements and Qualifications as separate sections if content exists. But we have both. Could split: Requirements (minimum qualifications) and Qualifications (preferred qualifications + knowledge, skills, abilities). Or we could combine into one Requirements section and omit Qualifications heading. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So better to combine into one Requirements section covering all qualifications. We'll not create a Qualifications heading if we don't have separate content. We'll use Requirements heading.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
Now we need to format lists.
Responsibilities: bullet list of duties.
