after other sections? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." We could include a
for work calendar after the Benefits section, not under a heading. That's allowed? The instruction says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. It doesn't forbid having stray
not under a heading? Probably okay but better to embed within a section like "About the role" or "Responsibilities". However work calendar is not about role. Could be placed under "About the role" as a brief note.
We also have "Minimum Qualifications" and "Desired Qualifications". Those map to Requirements and Qualifications? The headings list includes Requirements and Qualifications. We could treat Minimum Qualifications as Requirements, Desired Qualifications as Qualifications (or Skills?). But we also have Skills list later. Could combine.
We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract:
- Position Summary: paragraph.
- Compensation: wage schedule details.
- Retirement Plan Contributions: paragraph.
- Work Calendar: 180 days.
- Minimum Qualifications: list of items (many sentences). Could be turned into
- .
- Desired Qualifications: list.
- MAJOR DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES: list of duties.
Also there is note about video submissions, inclusive environment statement, encouragement to apply, contact HR, etc. Those are boilerplate? The inclusive environment statement maybe not boilerplate but it's about equity and inclusion. Could be part of About the role? Might be considered boilerplate but it's substantive about district values. The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The inclusive environment statement might be considered EEO boilerplate? It's about equity and inclusion, but could be considered EEO. However it's not a standard EEO statement; it's a statement about valuing diversity. Might be okay to keep? The instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate. So we should remove that paragraph about inclusive environment, fostering equity, etc. Also remove "We are most interested in finding the best candidate..." etc. Also remove "If you are unsure..." etc. Also remove "First round of interviews will be conducted by a review of applicants' video submissions.*" maybe keep? That's about selection process, maybe not boilerplate but could be considered application instructions? It's about interview process. Might be considered application instruction? Probably remove as it's about selection process. The instruction: Remove ... application instructions. So we should remove that line.
Also remove "Please Refer To The Job Descriptions For Detailed Information." and "Applicant agrees to assume cost and arrange for FINGERPRINT-BASED CRIMINAL RECORDS CHECK upon offer of employment." That's maybe legal/boilerplate. Remove.
Also remove Equal Opportunity Employer/Drug Free Workplace paragraph and the veterans preferences and non-discrimination statement and contact info. Those are EEO/legal boilerplate. Remove.
Also remove the link at end.
Thus we keep: Position Summary, Compensation, Retirement Plan Contributions, Work Calendar (maybe as note), Minimum Qualifications, Desired Qualifications, MAJOR DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES.
We need to format with headings: About the role (maybe Position Summary), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements (Minimum Qualifications), Qualifications (Desired Qualifications), Skills (maybe we could extract skills from duties? But we have no explicit Skills section; we could omit Skills if no specific content). Benefits (Retirement Plan Contributions). Pay (wage schedule). Schedule: we omit because TBD.
We also need to include work calendar 180 days somewhere. Could add a
under About the role or after Pay? Perhaps under About the role we can add a sentence: "The position follows a 180-day work calendar." That preserves info.
Now we need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. Not using.
Now produce HTML fragment.
We'll need to escape any special characters? Not needed.
