for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content.
We need to parse the job description.
Content:
- Job title: Instrument Operator- Surveying (not used as heading)
- Location: Valhalla, NY office (maybe minor metadata)
- About the role: "Be involved in our Geospatial Survey team and be a part of a growing organization that meets our client’s objectives and solves their challenges." Also "Your Impact Candidate can expect to be a supporting role for work on a wide variety of projects including transportation, environmental, water/wastewater, commercial, residential, solid waste, and energy from rural areas to urban areas.

Complete training on assigned tasks. Exercise responsible and ethical decision-making regarding company funds, resources and conduct, and adhere to WSP’s Code of Conduct and related policies and procedures. Perform additional responsibilities as required by business needs."
That's responsibilities.
- Requirements: "Required Qualifications High School Diploma or GED. 0-2+ years of experience. Valid driver’s license. Must successfully complete and pass WSP's Motor Vehicle screening. Effective interpersonal and communication skills. Ability to work independently under supervision, as well as part of a team to meet business objectives. Must possess a willingness to learn. Ability to work outside in all climates. Effective interpersonal and communication skills when interacting with others, expressing ideas effectively and professionally to a technical and non-technical audience. Effective self-leadership with attention to detail, ability to learn new techniques, perform multiple tasks simultaneously, follow instruction, and comply with company policies. Proven track record of upholding workplace safety and ability to abide by WSP’s health, safety and drug/alcohol and harassment policies. Ability to work schedules conducive to project-specific requirements that may extend beyond the typical workweek."
- Preferred Qualifications: "Degree from a survey program 1-2 years of survey experience"
- Benefits: "WSP Benefits WSP provides a comprehensive suite of benefits focused on a providing health and financial stability throughout the employee’s career. These benefits include coverage related to medical, dental, vision, disability, and life; retirement savings; paid sick leave; paid vacation (or other personal time); paid parental leave; and paid time off for purposes of bereavement, voting, and/or attendance at naturalization proceedings."
- Compensation: "Compensation: Expected Salary (all locations): $41,000.00 - $65,000.00 WSP USA is providing the compensation range that the company in good faith believes it might pay and offer for this position, based on the successful applicant’s education, experience, knowledge, skills, abilities and specific geographic location. WSP USA reserves the right to ultimately pay more or less than the posted range and may offer additional benefits and compensation, depending on circumstances and the type of work being performed not related to an applicant’s sex or other status protected by local, state, and/or federal law."
Thus we have Pay section.
- Schedule: Not explicitly given; there is mention of ability to work schedules conducive to project-specific requirements that may extend beyond typical workweek. That's more a requirement than schedule. No explicit schedule info like "Full-time", "Part-time", "Shift work". So we should not create Schedule section because no specific schedule content.
- Skills: Could be derived from required qualifications: interpersonal communication, ability to work independently/team, willingness to learn, ability to work outside, self-leadership, attention to detail, etc. But we have a Qualifications section; maybe we combine Requirements and Qualifications? The instruction: Use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections to include based on content.
We have About the role (maybe short intro). We have Responsibilities (the impact paragraph). We have Required Qualifications (list). We have Preferred Qualifications (maybe under Qualifications). We have Benefits. We have Pay (Compensation). No explicit Skills separate; but we could put skills under Qualifications or Requirements. The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one "Requirements" section that includes both required and preferred. Or we could have "Requirements" for required, and "Preferred Qualifications" as a subsection? But headings only allowed as listed; we could still have "Qualifications" heading for both required and preferred. Let's think.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include required qualifications and preferred qualifications. We can put them under a single "Qualifications" section with sub-lists: Required and Preferred. Or we could have two sections: "Requirements" and "Qualifications". But that may be thin. Better to have one "Qualifications" section with both required and preferred.
We also need About the role: maybe a short paragraph about the role (the first paragraph after job title). That is "Be involved in our Geospatial Survey team and be a part of a growing organization that meets our client’s objectives and solves their challenges." That's substantive.
Responsibilities: the "Your Impact..." paragraph.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay.
We should not include Skills separately.
Now format: Use for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to decide what constitutes a list. For responsibilities, we have multiple sentences; could be turned into list items? The instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So if we have a list of duties, we should list them. The responsibilities paragraph includes multiple duties: supporting role for work on variety of projects; utilize survey instruments to perform field surveys; comply with safety guidelines and site-specific procedures; complete training on assigned tasks; exercise responsible and ethical decision-making regarding company funds, resources and conduct, and adhere to WSP’s Code of Conduct; perform additional responsibilities as required by business needs. That's a list of duties. So we should make a
with each duty as - .
Similarly, qualifications: required qualifications list items; preferred qualifications list items.
Benefits: list of benefits: medical, dental, vision, disability, life; retirement savings; paid sick leave; paid vacation (or other personal time); paid parental leave; paid time off for bereavement, voting, and/or attendance at naturalization proceedings. Could be list.
Pay: just a sentence with salary range; could be

About the role: just a short paragraph;

We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting.
Let's extract details precisely.
About the role: "Be involved in our Geospatial Survey team and be a part of a growing organization that meets our client’s objectives and solves their challenges."
That's it.

Complete training on assigned tasks. Exercise responsible and ethical decision-making regarding company funds, resources and conduct, and adhere to WSP’s Code of Conduct and related policies and procedures. Perform additional responsibilities as required by business needs."
We need to keep the exact phrasing? Probably close enough.

It's duplicated in the posting; we should preserve all substantive information but remove duplicated lines? The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should remove duplicated lines.
