Information TechnologyPart-time
We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We need to parse the posting.
The posting includes: Summary (some description), Duties (list of duties), Requirements (conditions of employment, etc.), Qualifications (basic requirements, experience, education), Additional information (repeats excepted service). No explicit Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should not include those sections.
We need headings: for section headings (e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use
for section headings (e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc.
We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions.
We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content.
Thus we likely have sections: About the role (maybe from Summary), Responsibilities (from Duties), Requirements (from Conditions of employment etc.), Qualifications (from Qualifications and Education). Possibly Skills? Not explicit separate skills section; but we could embed skills within Qualifications or Responsibilities. The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine Skills into Qualifications or Responsibilities. But we have to follow headings list; we can omit Skills if no specific content.
Thus produce:
About the role
... summary text ...
Responsibilities
- ... each duty ...
Requirements
... conditions of employment ...
- ... maybe list of conditions? Actually conditions are prose; we can keep as
but also list items like Must be a U.S. Citizen, Males born after 12-31-59 must be registered..., etc. Those are list-like. Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should turn those into list.
Similarly Qualifications: we have basic requirements, qualifying experience, education substitution. Could be list.
We must preserve all substantive info; not invent.
Let's extract content.
Summary: "This position is being recruited under 10 USC 1599f into the Cyber Excepted Service and does NOT convey eligibility to be converted to the Competitive Service. It has been identified as a position necessary to carry out and support the mission of the US Cyber Command."
That's about the role.
Duties (under Duties Help): list:

- Works with the customer to identify customer requirements based on analysis of business needs and practices.

- Shadows the project team leader, mentor, and advisor to support team members with project oversight and coordination efforts with other information systems professionals and technical personnel.
We need to keep each as

Requirements (Conditions of employment): bullet list:
- Must be a U.S. Citizen.
- Males born after 12-31-59 must be registered or exempt from Selective Service.
- This national security position, which may require access to classified information, requires a favorable suitability review and security clearance as a condition of employment. Failure to maintain security eligibility may result in termination.
- In accordance with the DoD 8140 policy series, the position is subject to completing Foundational Qualifications in 9 months and completing Residential Qualification requirements overall in 12 months.
- The Full Performance Level (FPL) may be either GG-07, GG-09, GG-11, or GG-12 and is determined based on the position being filled. Management has the discretion to select candidates at grade levels below the FPL and promotions are not guaranteed.
- Individuals tentatively selected for drug testing designated positions at the Defense Information Systems Agency will be required to submit to urinalysis for illegal drugs prior to appointment or placement.
- Employee is subject to recall or call back during off-shift hours, 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, if required by upper management.
We should keep all.
Qualifications: includes Basic Requirements for GG-2210-05 to GG-2210-11 etc. This is lengthy. We need to preserve all substantive info. Could be long but we must include.
We need to format as list items maybe grouping.
We have:
Basic Requirements: GG-2210-05 to GG-2210-11
Undergraduate or Graduate Education: Degree in computer science, engineering, information science, information systems management, mathematics, operations research, statistics, or technology management or degree that provided a minimum of 24 semester hours in one or more of the fields identified above and required the development or adaptation of applications, systems or networks. OR
Then list of competencies: Attention to Detail, Customer Service, Oral Communication, Problem Solving (each with description). Then Qualifying Experience for each grade level GG-05, GG-07, GG-09, GG-11, GG-12 (with definitions). Then Volunteer Experience note. Then Education substitution details for each grade.
We must preserve all. It's a lot but we can output as list items; each item can be a sentence.
We must not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the exact phrasing? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we should keep the content as is, maybe rephrase slightly but not lose detail. Safer to copy the sentences.
We'll need to be careful not to include boilerplate like "Candidates must describe how they meet the qualifying experience and/or selective placement factor(s) within the body of their resume. All qualifications must be met within 30 days after the closing date of the announcement." That appears twice; it's not boilerplate? It's part of qualifications but maybe considered administrative. It's still substantive? It's about application process; but instruction says remove application instructions. That is application instruction. So we should remove those lines. Also "Volunteer Experience: 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 to paid employment. You will receive credit for all qualifying experience, including volunteer experience." That's substantive about volunteer experience counting; keep.
Also "Candidates must describe how they meet the qualifying experience and/or selective placement factor(s) within the body of their resume. All qualifications must be met within 30 days after the closing date of this announcement." That's application instruction; remove.
Also "Education GG-05 Substitution of Education for Experience: ..." etc. Keep.
We also have "Additional information This position is in the Excepted Service and does NOT convey eligibility to be converted to the Competitive Service. It is being recruited under 10 U.S.C. 1599f into the Cyber Excepted Service (CES) personnel system. If you are a current Federal Career/Car" truncated. That's repetitive of summary; maybe we can include as part of About the role? But it's duplicate; we should remove duplicated lines. The summary already covered that. So we can omit the Additional information.
Thus final HTML:
