Orientation and Mobility Specialist

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 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

  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 the 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 the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences. We need to parse the posting and decide which sections to include. The posting includes: - Title: Orientation and Mobility Specialist with BBVS, Altoona District Office. - Description: "This position is responsible for providing a full range of rehabilitation services to individuals who are blind or visually impaired. This role allows you to guide people as they build confidence, expand their independence, and move safely through their communities. Your skills will help shape brighter futures and open new paths for the people you serve." - "DESCRIPTION OF WORK This position guides individuals who are blind or visually impaired as they work toward independence at home and in the community. As an Orientation and Mobility Specialist, you will perform the following duties:" then list of duties. - Then "Interested in learning more? Additional details regarding this position can be found in the position description ." (We can ignore that line as it's a reference.) - "Work Schedule and Additional Information: Full-time employment, 7.5 hours per day Work hours are negotiable, Monday - Friday, with a 30 or 60-minute lunch depending on work hours. AWS (alternate work schedule) may be available. Telework: You may have the opportunity to work from home (telework) part-time upon successful completion of the training period. In order to telework, you must have a securely configured high-speed internet connection and work from an approved location inside Pennsylvania. If you are unable to telework, you will have the option to report to the headquarters office in Altoona. The ability to telework is subject to change at any time. Additional details may be provided during the interview." - "Salary: Selected candidates who are new to employment with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania will begin employment at the starting annual salary of $60,538.00 (before taxes). You will receive further communication regarding this position via email. Check your email, including spam/junk folders, for these notices." - "Required Experience, Training & Eligibility QUALIFICATIONS Minimum Experience and Training Requirements: Successful completion of the commonwealth’s Orientation and Mobility Intern program; or Possession of an active Certified Orientation and Mobility Specialist certificate issued by the Academy for Certification of Vision Rehabilitation and Education Professionals (ACVREP); or A bachelor’s or master’s degree or certificate from an approved college or university program in orientation and mobility that includes a practicum. Applicants will be considered to have met the educational requirements once they are within 3 months of graduating with a qualifying degree. Other Requirements: PA residency requirement is currently waived for this title. You must be able to perform essential job functions. Legal Requirements: This position falls under the provisions of the Child Protective Services Law. Under the Law, a conditional offer of employment will require submission and approval of satisfactory criminal history reports including, but not limited to, PA State Police clearance, PA Child Abuse history clearance, and FBI Fingerprint clearance." - Then "How to Apply: ..." which is application instructions, we must remove. - Then "Veterans: ..." EEO boilerplate, remove. - Then "EXAMINATION INFORMATION ..." also application instructions, remove. Thus we need to keep substantive info: description of work, duties list, work schedule, telework info, salary, qualifications (experience/training/eligibility). Also maybe "About the role" could be the initial paragraph describing role. We need to decide sections: Possibly "About the role" (intro paragraph), "Responsibilities" (duties list), "Qualifications" (experience/training/eligibility), "Pay" (salary), "Schedule" (work schedule and telework info). Benefits? Not mentioned besides telework maybe but not explicit benefits like health insurance. So we should not create Benefits section unless present. The posting mentions telework opportunity, but that's more schedule/working conditions. Could be part of Schedule or a separate "Work Arrangements". But we only have allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can use Schedule for work hours and telework. Pay for salary. Qualifications for qualifications. Responsibilities for duties. About the role for introductory paragraph. We should not include Requirements if not distinct; we can combine into Qualifications. The posting has "Required Experience, Training & Eligibility QUALIFICATIONS". So we can put that under Qualifications. We need to use

  for each section heading. Use

  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the sections we keep. Let's extract content: About the role (intro): "Step into a meaningful career as an Orientation and Mobility Specialist with the Bureau of Blindness and Visual Services (BBVS), Altoona District Office. This position is responsible for providing a full range of rehabilitation services to individuals who are blind or visually impaired. This role allows you to guide people as they build confidence, expand their independence, and move safely through their communities. Your skills will help shape brighter futures and open new paths for the people you serve." We could also include the "DESCRIPTION OF WORK" paragraph: "This position guides individuals who are blind or visually impaired as they work toward independence at home and in the community." That's similar to intro but we can combine. Better to keep About the role as the first paragraph(s) that describe role and purpose. Responsibilities: list of duties under "As an Orientation and Mobility Specialist, you will perform the following duties:" then bullet list: - Assessment Duties: Assess customer needs by reviewing reports, interviewing individuals, and observing daily functioning to create an instructional plan - Instruction Planning: Develop personalized instruction schedules that align with rehabilitation goals - Equipment Selection: Choose and recommend travel aids and assistive technology based on customer readiness and capabilities - Skill Instruction: Provide individual or group lessons that build safe travel techniques and greater independence - Progress Monitoring: Track customer skill growth and determine whether instructional goals are being met - Support Services: Offer counseling and guidance to reinforce skills and assist families in supporting the customer We need to preserve the exact wording? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep the text as is, maybe each bullet as a line. We need to output

    • for each duty. Qualifications: content under "Required Experience, Training & Eligibility QUALIFICATIONS Minimum Experience and Training Requirements: Successful completion of the commonwealth’s Orientation and Mobility Intern program; or Possession of an active Certified Orientation and Mobility Specialist certificate issued by the Academy for Certification of Vision Rehabilitation and Education Professionals (ACVREP); or A bachelor’s or master’s degree or certificate from an approved college or university program in orientation and mobility that includes a practicum. Applicants will be considered to have met the educational requirements once they are within 3 months of graduating with a qualifying degree. Other Requirements: PA residency requirement is currently waived for this title. You must be able to perform essential job functions. Legal Requirements: This position falls under the provisions of the Child Protective Services Law. Under the Law, a conditional offer of employment will require submission and approval of satisfactory criminal history reports including, but not limited to, PA State Police clearance, PA Child Abuse history clearance, and FBI Fingerprint clearance." We need to keep all that. Could format as
      • for each bullet? It's not a list but we can still use

        for prose. However instruction: Use

        • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For qualifications, it's a list of requirements; we could treat as list. But the content includes semicolons separating options. Might be better to keep as

          but we need to follow instruction: Use

          • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Since qualifications are requirements, we should use list. However the content is not naturally bullet points; we could split into items: each option separated by ";" or "or". But we risk altering meaning. Safer to keep as

            for prose, but instruction says use

            • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. It doesn't forbid using

              for requirements if not a list? It says "Use

              • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits". If we have requirements that are not in a list format, we could still use

                . But to be safe, we could convert to list items: each distinct requirement. Let's parse: - Successful completion of the commonwealth’s Orientation and Mobility Intern program; - Possession of an active Certified Orientation and Mobility Specialist certificate issued by the Academy for Certification of Vision Rehabilitation and Education Professionals (ACVREP); - A bachelor’s or master’s degree or certificate from an approved college or university program in orientation and mobility that includes a practicum. - Applicants will be considered to have met the educational requirements once they are within 3 months of graduating with a qualifying degree. - Other Requirements: PA residency requirement is currently waived for this title. - You must be able to perform essential job functions. - Legal Requirements: This position falls under the provisions of the Child Protective Services Law. - Under the Law, a conditional offer of employment will require submission and approval of satisfactory criminal history reports including, but not limited to, PA State Police clearance, PA Child Abuse history clearance, and FBI Fingerprint clearance. We could keep as

                but maybe better to use

                • for each of these points. However some points are long sentences; still okay. Pay: "Salary: Selected candidates who are new to employment with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania will begin employment at the starting annual salary of $60,538.00 (before taxes). You will receive further communication regarding this position via email. Check your email, including spam/junk folders, for these notices." We need to keep that. Schedule: "Work Schedule and Additional Information: Full-time employment, 7.5 hours per day Work hours are negotiable, Monday - Friday, with a 30 or 60-minute lunch depending on work hours. AWS (alternate work schedule) may be available. Telework: You may have the opportunity to work from home (telework) part-time upon successful completion of the training period. In order to telework, you must have a securely configured high-speed internet connection and work from an approved location inside Pennsylvania. If you are unable to telework, you will have the option to report to the headquarters office in Altoona. The ability to telework is subject to change at any time. Additional details may be provided during the interview." We need to keep that. We should not include application instructions, EEO, etc. Now produce HTML fragment. Structure:
