Licensed Vocational Nurse - Primary Care, Education Debt Reduction Program (EDRP)

The user wants me to convert this job posting into clean semantic HTML. Let me analyze the content and structure it according to the rules. First, I need to identify the sections: 1. There's a summary about EDRP (Education Debt Reduction Program) - this could be a Benefits section or a separate section 2. Qualifications - with basic requirements and grade determinations 3. Duties - detailed list of responsibilities 4. Work Schedule, Telework, Virtual status, Functional Statement, Relocation/Recruitment Incentives, EDRP Authorized, Contact info, Preferred Experience Rules: - Use

for section headings (About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule) - Use

• for lists - Use

  for prose - Don't repeat job title as heading - Don't put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings - fold into short

  or drop - Preserve ALL substantive information - Remove boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/scam-warning) - Include section ONLY when real specific content exists - Never emit heading followed by filler/placeholder text - Never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits unless posting actually states them - Output ONLY HTML fragment Looking at the content: - There's no explicit "About the role" section, but there's a summary about EDRP - Qualifications section is detailed with basic requirements and grade determinations - Duties section is detailed - Work Schedule is specified: Monday-Friday 8:00 a.m- 4:30 p.m - Telework: Ad-hoc Available - Virtual: not virtual/remote - Functional Statement #: 99264-F (this is like a job ID, should fold into a

  or drop) - Relocation/Recruitment Incentives: Not Authorized - EDRP Authorized: with details - Contact email for EDRP - Preferred Experience listed I should structure this as: - Maybe a "Benefits" section for EDRP info - "Qualifications" section with basic requirements and grade determinations - "Responsibilities" section for duties - "Schedule" section for work schedule, telework, virtual status - "Preferred Experience" section for the preferred experience list The Functional Statement # is like a requisition number - I'll fold it into a short

  or drop it. The rules say "fold minor metadata into a short

  or drop it". I'll include it in a brief paragraph maybe at the end or in schedule section. Relocation/Recruitment Incentives: Not Authorized - this is substantive info about benefits/incentives, could go in Benefits. EDRP is a benefit program, so Benefits section makes sense. Let me create the HTML. I'll start with a Benefits section for EDRP and relocation incentives. Then Qualifications with subsections for Basic Requirements and Grade Determinations. Then Responsibilities for duties. Then Schedule for work schedule, telework, virtual. Then Preferred Experience. I need to use

  for headings. For subsections within Qualifications, I could use

  but the rules only mention

  for section headings. The rules say "use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)". It doesn't forbid other heading levels, but to be safe, I'll use

  for main sections and maybe

  for sub-sections or just use

  for sub-headings. But the rules don't specify sub-headings. I think using

  is fine as long as it's semantic. However, the instruction says "use

  for section headings" - it doesn't say exclusively. I'll use

  for main sections and

  for sub-sections within Qualifications. But the output should be only HTML fragment. Let me write it. I'll preserve all substantive details. The grade determinations are very detailed - I'll keep them as lists. For the grade determinations, each grade has multiple bullet points. I'll create a list for each grade. Let me structure:
