We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID etc as headings; fold minor metadata into short

    or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We need to extract substantive content: Working Title, Job Class, Agency, Location, Telework Eligible, Full/Part Time, Regular/Temporary, Who May Apply, Date Posted, Closing Date, Hiring Agency/Seniority Unit, Division/Unit, Work Shift/Work Hours, Days of Work, Travel Required, Salary Range, Classified Status, Bargaining Unit/Union, FLSA Status, Designated in Connect 700 Program, etc. Many of these are metadata; we can fold into a short

    maybe under a heading like "Position Details". But the instruction says use headings only for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. It doesn't forbid other headings? It says "use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It implies we should use those headings for those sections if present. It doesn't say we cannot have other headings, but likely we should stick to those. However we need to include all substantive info. Could embed metadata in a

    under "About the role" or maybe a separate section like "Position Details" but that is not in the list; maybe we can incorporate into "About the role". The "About the role" could contain description of role and also metadata like location, telework, etc. We need sections: About the role (prose), Responsibilities (list), Requirements (list), Qualifications (maybe split into Minimum Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications), Skills (maybe list), Benefits (list), Pay (if present), Schedule (if present). The posting includes Salary Range (Pay) and Work Shift/Work Hours, Days of Work (Schedule). Also Travel Required (maybe part of Responsibilities or About). Benefits are listed. Thus we will create sections:

    About the role

    ... include working title, agency, location, telework, full-time, etc, plus description of work.

    Responsibilities

    • ... list duties from "The Local Government Auditor (LGA) Senior has primary responsibility for:" and bullet points.

    Minimum Qualifications

    maybe treat as Requirements? The instruction says use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we could have a "Requirements" section containing minimum qualifications. And a "Preferred Qualifications" section maybe under "Qualifications"? Actually they list Qualifications as a possible heading. Could have "Qualifications" with sub-sections? But we need to avoid thin sections. Perhaps combine Minimum and Preferred Qualifications into one "Qualifications" section with two sub-lists? But we need to use
    • for any list. Could have two
        under same heading. Better: Use "Requirements" for minimum qualifications (the "Minimum Qualifications" block). Use "Preferred Qualifications" for the preferred qualifications block. That seems appropriate. Then "Skills" maybe not needed separately; could embed in qualifications. "Benefits" section: list benefits. "Pay" section: include salary range. "Schedule" section: include work shift, days of work, travel required maybe. We must not create sections with filler. All these have real content. We must remove boilerplate: EEO, equal opportunity, scam warning, application instructions (How To Apply, Contact, etc). Also remove duplicated lines. Also remove "About State Auditor" maybe? That is boilerplate? It's descriptive of agency; could be considered part of About the role? Might be okay to keep as part of About the role? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The "About State Auditor" paragraph is not exactly boilerplate but could be considered generic agency description; but it's substantive about the agency. Might keep? It's not about the role specifically but about the agency. Could be considered part of About the role? Might be okay to keep as it's not EEO etc. However it's somewhat generic; but we can keep. We also need to remove "How To Apply", "Contact", "Connect 700 Program applicant" instructions, etc. Also remove "Designated in Connect 700 Program for Applicants with Disabilities: Yes" maybe keep as part of About the role? It's a metadata about eligibility; could be included in About the role paragraph. We must preserve all substantive information: so we need to keep salary range, benefits, responsibilities, minimum qualifications, preferred qualifications, work shift, days of work, travel required, telework eligible, location, etc. Let's extract details: Working Title: Local Government Auditor Senior Job Class: Local Government Auditor Senior Agency: State Auditor Location: Moorhead Telework Eligible: Yes Full/Part Time: Full-Time Regular/Temporary: Unlimited Who May Apply: Open to all qualified job seekers Date Posted: 09/22/2026 Closing Date: 10/13/2026 Hiring Agency/Seniority Unit: State Auditor / State Auditor-MAPE Division/Unit: Payroll Processing Unit / Audit Practice Work Shift/Work Hours: Day Shift Days of Work: Monday - Thursday or Monday - Friday Travel Required: Yes - Up to 25% of the time Salary Range: $32.97 - $48.60 / hourly; $68,841 - $101,476 / annually Classified Status: Classified Bargaining Unit/Union: 214 - MN Assoc of Professional Empl/MAPE FLSA Status: Exempt - Professional Designated in Connect 700 Program for Applicants with Disabilities: Yes Then description: "The work you'll do is more than just a job. At the State of Minnesota, employees play a critical role in developing policies, providing essential services, and working to improve the well-being and quality of life for all Minnesotans. The State of Minnesota is committed to equity and inclusion, and invests in employees by providing benefits, support resources, and training and development opportunities. The Office of the State Auditor (OSA) Audit Practice Division performs independent, external financial and compliance audits of local governments." Responsibilities: "This Senior level auditor position is responsible for assisting in the audits of local governments by ensuring that appropriate procedures are performed that are necessary to determine the reliability of clients’ financial statements and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. The Local Government Auditor (LGA) Senior has primary responsibility for: Playing a lead role in the planning and completion of individual audits; Self-directing completion of complex audit sections and financial reporting; and Providing day-to-day guidance and coaching to less experienced professional auditors." Interviews will be held in person in St. Paul or in the Moorhead area. Start date of approximately October 21, 2026, or after. After an initial training period in the Moorhead office, the LGA Senior is expected to report to the OSA's Moorhead office or an assigned client location a minimum of one day per week. Minimum Qualifications: list bullet points. Preferred Qualifications: list bullet points. Physical Requirements: "Requires occasional transport of less than 10 pounds, along with the ability to move through work space and maintain a stationary position throughout the work day." Additional Requirements: background check, work authorization. Benefits: list. We need to decide what to include. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep everything that is substantive, including physical requirements, additional requirements, etc. But we must not create sections with filler. We can include them under appropriate sections: maybe under "Requirements" we can include physical requirements and additional requirements as part of requirements. Or we could have a separate "Additional Requirements" section but not in the list; maybe we can incorporate into Requirements. We need to avoid duplication: there may be duplicated lines like "The Office of the State Auditor (OSA) Audit Practice Division performs independent, external financial and compliance audits of local governments." appears maybe twice? We'll just include once. We must remove application instructions: "How To Apply", contact info, etc. We must remove EEO etc. Now craft HTML. We'll start with

        About the role

        ... include working title, agency, location, telework, full-time, etc, plus description.

        We need to include details like Job Class, Agency, Location, Telework Eligible, Full/Part Time, Regular/Temporary, Who May Apply, Date Posted, Closing Date, Hiring Agency/Seniority Unit, Division/Unit, Work Shift/Work Hours, Days of Work, Travel Required, Salary Range? Actually salary goes to Pay section. But we could mention salary in About? Better to put in Pay section. We'll include in About: Working Title, Job Class, Agency, Location, Telework Eligible, Full/Part Time, Regular/Temporary, Who May Apply, Date Posted, Closing Date, Hiring Agency/Seniority Unit, Division/Unit, Work Shift/Work Hours, Days of Work, Travel Required, Connect 700 designation, plus the descriptive paragraph. But note that Work Shift/Work Hours and Days of Work also belong to Schedule section; we might avoid duplication. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; duplication is okay if it's in original? But we should avoid duplicated lines. It says remove duplicated lines. So we should not repeat same info in multiple places. So we need to decide where to put each piece. Likely schedule details go under Schedule section; pay under Pay; benefits under Benefits; responsibilities under Responsibilities; qualifications under Requirements/Preferred Qualifications; physical requirements and additional requirements maybe under Requirements or a separate section like "Additional Requirements" but not in list; maybe we can incorporate into Requirements as sub-items. Thus About the role should contain: Working Title, Job Class, Agency, Location, Telework Eligible, Full/Part Time, Regular/Temporary, Who May Apply, Date Posted, Closing Date, Hiring Agency/Seniority Unit, Division/Unit, Connect 700 designation, plus the descriptive paragraph about work and agency. We should not repeat Work Shift/Work Hours, Days of Work, Travel Required, Salary Range, Benefits, Responsibilities, Qualifications, etc. Now craft About paragraph. Let's compose:

        Working Title: Local Government Auditor Senior
        Job Class: Local Government Auditor Senior
        Agency: State Auditor
        Location: Moorhead
