OFFICE TECHNICIAN (TYPING)
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc as headings; can fold minor metadata into short
or drop it. Must preserve all substantive info; do not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we need to strip out things like "Please let us know how you heard about our position by taking this brief survey", "Working Conditions", "Pursuant to California Government Code requirements", "Position Details", "Department Information", "Special Requirements", "Application Instructions", "How To Apply", "Required Application Package Documents", "Other - Typing certificate required", "Desirable Qualifications", "Benefits", "Contact Information", "Additional Information", etc. But we need to keep substantive info: duties, responsibilities, qualifications, skills, benefits, pay, schedule maybe. However we must not create sections unless posting has real specific content. The posting includes salary range: $3,829.00 - $4,794.00. That's pay. It includes "Effective July 1, 2025, State employees are subject to a salary reduction of three per cent in exchange for five hours per month of the Personal Leave." That's also pay detail. It includes "Work Location: Tulare County", "Telework: In Office", "Job Type: Permanent, Full Time". That's schedule? Actually schedule maybe not explicit; but we have "Job Type: Permanent, Full Time". Could treat as schedule? The instruction says include Schedule section only if posting actually states them. It does state "Job Type: Permanent, Full Time". That's schedule info. So we can include a Schedule section with that. Benefits: The posting includes a Benefits paragraph: "As a state employee working for the Department of Developmental Services, you and your family will have access to excellent medical, dental and vision insurance benefits in addition to retirement benefits. Benefit Eligibility May Be Based On Job Classification, Bargaining Unit, Time Base And Length Of Appointment. Additional Benefits May Also Be Outlined For Specific Bargaining Units In Employee Collective Bargaining Contracts. For More Information, Please Visit The Links Below: State Employees - CalHR Benefits Website CalPERS Health Benefit Summary 2026 Benefit information can be found on the CalHR website and the CalPERS website." That's specific benefits info. So we can include Benefits section. Responsibilities/Duties: The job description includes many duties: typing detailed confidential police and investigative reports; distributing and controlling record-keeping section for all confidential reports and documents and maintaining multiple database systems; responding to correspondence; maintaining investigation case logs; answering telephones; maintaining monthly attendance reports; ordering office supplies; travel and training expenditures, purchasing required equipment for PSB personnel; working with a variety of departmental personnel; maintain consistent regular attendance; work various shifts; communicate effectively; demonstrate initiative, independence, originality; exemplify responsibility and dependability; maintain confidentiality. Also "Under the supervision of the Lieutenant (Supervising Special Investigator I, SSI I), Protective Services Branch (PSB), the Office Technician (Typing) (OT) (T) is responsible for performing a variety of tasks and duties in support of the investigative, police and fire services for Porterville Developmental Center (PDC)." So we can put Responsibilities section with
- items.
Requirements/Qualifications: The posting includes Minimum Qualifications? It mentions "Special Requirements: The position(s) require(s) the ability to type at a minimum speed as designated on the Class Specifications... You must obtain a valid typing certificate confirming your ability to meet the minimum typing speed, prior to being hired." Also "Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) must be numbered..." etc. Also "Desirable Qualifications" list: Knowledge of policies, laws, and rules as they relate to PSB operations; requires high degree of initiative, independence; strong computer skills and knowledge of MS Office Suite and other applications and databases; detail oriented; can keep accurate records, prepare reports and track information; experience providing consultation services and customer services and have excellent time management skills; ability to maintain constant and regular attendance; develop/maintain positive relationships; must be able to maintain confidentiality; must be able to multitask. Also "Working Conditions: Pursuant to California Government Code requirements, candidates must be residents of the State of California at the time of appointment. This position requires lawful authorization to work in the United States. The Department does not sponsor employment visas for this position. Work is performed in an open-spaced partitioned office environment. Requires using a computer while reviewing and/or preparing documents." That's also requirements.
We need to decide which sections to include: About the role (maybe a brief summary), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should avoid thin sections. We can combine some.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all the duties, responsibilities, qualifications, etc. But we must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual content.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
We'll produce something like:

Check for minor metadata like Job Code #: JC-533029 etc. We omitted those; they are minor metadata, we can drop them. Good.
