for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. But we must only include sections when posting has real specific content. The posting does not have explicit sections like About the role, Responsibilities, etc. It has Duties Summary (location, closing date) but that's not duties. It has Requirements/Qualifications content. It does not have Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should include sections for Requirements and Qualifications maybe combined? The instruction: Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can use headings like Requirements and Qualifications. We need to decide if we separate them or combine. The posting lumps Requirements and Qualifications together. Could output a single Requirements and Qualifications
with content. Or we could output two headings if content distinct. Probably better to have one heading "Requirements and Qualifications". Also maybe a short paragraph for Duties Summary? The instruction says do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

The instruction says do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a shortor drop it. The Duties Summary includes location and closing date. That's minor metadata; we could put in a
. Also there is promotional paragraph at end about HHS; that's not required but could be considered "About the role"? It's generic. Might be considered boilerplate? It's not EEO but it's promotional. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The promotional paragraph is not exactly boilerplate but could be considered fluff. However it's substantive? It's generic marketing. Might be considered not required. Safer to omit it? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. The promotional paragraph is substantive? It's about the department. Might be considered relevant. But it's not a standard section. Could be placed under a heading "About the role"? The instruction says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities...). So we could create an About the role section with that paragraph. However the instruction says include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. The promotional paragraph is specific enough? It's about HHS mission. Might be okay.
But we also have Duties Summary location and closing date. Could be placed under About the role as well.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /. Use for headings, - for lists,
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information: requirements, qualifications, basic qualifications, minimum qualifications, medical requirement, documenting experience, volunteer work note, etc. That's a lot of detail. We need to format as lists where appropriate.
We must not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the detailed bullet points under Basic Qualifications (education requirements) and Minimum Qualifications (specialized experience). Also medical requirement, documenting experience instructions, volunteer work note.
We need to decide structure: maybe

In addition to describing duties performed, applicants must provide the exact dates of each period of employment (from MM/YY to MM/YY) and the number of hours worked per week if part time. As qualification determinations cannot be made when resumes do not include the required information, failure to provide this information may result in disqualification.

The documentation must indicate whether the duties were performed full time or, if part time, the "percentage of times" the other duties were performed. It is expected that this documentation is included in the employee's official personnel record. In order to receive credit for experience in your resume that is not within the official series and grade level of your official position, you must provide a copy of the appropriate documentation of such experience as indicated above. 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; community; student; social). Volunteer work helps build critical competencies, knowledge, and skills and can provide valuable training and experience that translates directly to gain employment.

If such experience is on a part-time basis, you must provide the average number of hours worked per week as well as the beginning and ending dates of the experience so it can be fully credited.
