We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings: 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:
- Position Summary: description of role.
- Duties and Responsibilities: includes a list of duties (Level 1, Level 2, Level 3). Also includes some generic statements like "This list of duties and responsibilities is not all inclusive...". We need to preserve substantive info, remove boilerplate like "This list of duties and responsibilities is not all inclusive...". Also remove duplicated lines.
- Qualifications: includes "Qualifications:" paragraph then "To assist production team..." then "Education and/or Experience:" etc. Also includes Physical Demands, Work Environment, etc. Also includes "The Matched Metal Tool Maker shall also: Demonstrate Initiative..." etc.
- There's also "We Make it Easy Founded in 1901..." which is about MRA, likely boilerplate, should be removed.
- There's contact info: Mathias Die Company Inc. Www.mathias-die.com 651-451-0105 (maybe minor metadata, fold into short p or drop). We can include as a short p.
- No explicit Pay, Benefits, Schedule given. So we should not create those sections.
- Skills: maybe we can infer from qualifications: mathematical skills, reading blueprints, etc. But we should only create Skills section if posting actually states them. The posting includes "Requires mathematical skills that require the ability to add, subtract, multiply, and divide, and perform geometric algebraic and trig calculations", "Must perform metric conversions", "Requires good English oral and written communication skills", "Workstation Computer/PC experience or demonstrated knowledge", "Ability to read and understand blueprints, specifications, and routings". Those could be considered skills. However the instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." We could combine Qualifications and Skills? But we have separate headings allowed. We need to decide if we should create a Skills section. The posting does not have a explicit "Skills" heading, but it does list skill-like requirements. The instruction: "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it". It does not require that the heading be present in the posting; we can create a section if there is content that fits. However we must not invent or summarize away detail. We can extract those skill statements and put them under a Skills section. That seems acceptable.
Similarly, we could have an "About the role" section from Position Summary.
Responsibilities: from Duties and Responsibilities (levels). We'll need to format as
- items.
Qualifications: from Education and/or Experience, plus maybe other qualification statements like "To assist production team..." but that's more of a purpose. We'll include the qualification statements.
We need to avoid boilerplate like "Reasonable accommodations may be made..." etc. Those are generic but could be considered part of qualifications? They are boilerplate EEO. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. So we should remove those lines.
Also remove duplicated lines.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to keep the duty statements (the long list). We'll need to parse them into bullet points.
Let's extract the substantive content:
Position Summary (first paragraph):
"Understand the tool building processes from specifications as noted in blueprints, sketches, models, or descriptions, and visualizes product to determine materials required and machines to be used to fabricate parts. Analyzes specifications, lays out metal stock, sets up and operates machine tools, and fits and assembles parts to fabricate and repair Matched Metal Dies, cutting tools, jigs and fixtures, gauges, and machinists' hand tools."
That's about the role.
Duties and Responsibilities: The list includes Level 1, Level 2, Level 3 items. We need to capture each bullet.
Let's extract Level 1 items (the list after "Level 1 Understands the job ticket requirements and completes each job timely and accurate" then a series of items separated by line breaks? The text:
"Level 1 Understands the job ticket requirements and completes each job timely and accurateGeneral shop maintenanceWork lift Trained and material moving equipmentPerforms all duties apparent and as assignedMaterial management and inventory assistance as directedCleans work areaFollow all safety rules, practice and promote preventative safetyFollow company policies and proceduresCut, shape, and trim blanks or blocks to specified lengths or shapes, using power saws, machine tools, grinders, and hand toolsFile, grind, shim, and adjust different parts to properly fit them togetherLift, position, and secure machined parts on surface plates or worktables, using hoists, vises, v-blocks, or angle platesMeasure, mark, and scribe metal or plastic stock to lay out machining, using instruments such protractors, micrometers, scribes, and rulersSmooth and polish flat and contoured surfaces of parts or tools, using scrapers, abrasive stones, files, emery cloths, or power grindersVerify dimensions, alignments, and clearances of finished parts for conformance to specifications, using measuring instruments such as calipers, gauge blocks, micrometers, and dial indicators"
It seems missing punctuation; we need to split into sensible bullet points. We'll create bullet points for each distinct duty.
Similarly Level 2 items:
"Level 2 (Includes all or most of level one and the following) Meets with engineers to discuss potential machine problemsConduct test runs with completed tools or dies to ensure that parts meet specifications; adjust as necessaryFit and assemble parts to make, repair, or modify dies, jigs, gauges, and tools, using machine tools and hand toolsInspect finished dies for smoothness, contour conformity, and defectsSet up and operate conventional or computer numerically controlled machine tools such as lathes, milling machines, and grinders to cut, bore, grind, or otherwise shape parts to prescribed dimensions and finishesStudy blueprints, sketches, models, or specifications to plan sequences of operations for fabricating tools, dies, or assembliesVisualize and compute dimensions, sizes, shapes, and tolerances of assemblies, based on specificationsDesign jigs, fixtures, and templates for use as work aids in the fabrication of parts or products"
Level 3 items:
"Level 3 (Includes all or most of level one, two and the following) Examines standard or previously used dies, tools, and jigs and fixtures, and has skill to recommend design modifications regarding construction and function of partAssist in the decision-making process of future machine and tooling purchasesAssist design in selecting select metals to be used from a range of metals and alloys, based on properties such as hardness and heat toleranceAssists designer/engineers to Develop and design new tools and dies"
We need to preserve all.
Qualifications section: The text after "Qualifications:" includes:
"To assist production team to assure the timely completion of a quality product and to meet all quality standards and customer specifications. To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential duty and responsibilities satisfactorily. The requirements listed within are representative of the knowledge, skill, and/or ability required. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions."
That's boilerplate purpose; maybe we can keep the first sentence? But it's somewhat generic. However we might keep it as part of About the role? Probably better to treat as part of Qualifications but it's not specific. The instruction says remove boilerplate EEO etc. This is not EEO but still generic. Might be considered boilerplate. Safer to keep only the substantive qualification statements: Education and/or Experience, etc.
Education and/or Experience:
"Requires education generally equivalent to a 2-year Technical DegreeRequires 2+ years of machinist experienceRequires mathematical skills that require the ability to add, subtract, multiply, and divide, and perform geometric algebraic and trig calculationsMust perform metric conversionsRequires good English oral and written communication skills in order to interact with employeesMust be able to read and understand blueprints, specifications, and routingsWorkstation Computer/PC experience or demonstrated knowledge"
We need to split into bullet points.
Physical Demands and Work Environment: These are also substantive but maybe we could include under a "Working Conditions" section? Not in allowed headings. Allowed headings are About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could put Physical Demands under Requirements? Or Qualifications? The instruction: "Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we can use Requirements as a heading for things like physical demands, maybe. But we already have Qualifications for education/experience. We could put Physical Demands under Requirements. However we need to see if there is any content for Requirements besides physical demands. The posting didn't have a separate "Requirements" heading but we can create if we have content. The physical demands and work environment are substantive. We'll include them under Requirements. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have none. Now we need to output HTML fragment only. We'll structure:
