Pharmacy Analyst 340B
for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For prose use
. For qualifications we have multiple bullet-like statements; we can make a list.
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings (none present). Must remove boilerplate like cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. The posting includes some boilerplate like "Welcome! We’re excited you’re considering an opportunity with us! To apply..." and "Below, you’ll find other important information about this position." Also "The statements described here are intended to describe the general nature of work..." etc. Those are part of responsibilities description; we should keep them? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The welcome and apply instructions are application instructions; we should remove them. Also the line "Below, you’ll find other important information about this position." is maybe filler; could remove. The responsibility intro: "The statements described here are intended to describe the general nature of work being performed by people assigned to this position. They are not intended to be constructed as an all-inclusive list of all responsibilities and duties. Other duties may be assigned." That's boilerplate but it's part of responsibilities section; maybe we keep it as it's part of the description? It's generic but not necessarily boilerplate to remove; but it's typical. However we could keep it as it's part of the responsibilities description. The instruction says remove duplicated lines; not that.
We need to preserve all substantive information; we can keep that line as it's part of responsibilities description.

But note we also have the introductory sentences about responsibilities: "The statements described here are intended to describe the general nature of work being performed by people assigned to this position. They are not intended to be constructed as an all-inclusive list of all responsibilities and duties. Other duties may be assigned." Should we include that as a paragraph before the list? Probably yes as prose. So we can add a with that sentence.
Thus Responsibilities section:
The statements described here are intended to describe the general nature of work being performed by people assigned to this position. They are not intended to be constructed as an all-inclusive list of all responsibilities and duties. Other duties may be assigned.
then list.
Now Requirements (minimum qualifications). We need to capture the MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS block. It includes multiple alternatives. We'll preserve all details.
We can format as a with each bullet representing each alternative? Or we could keep as prose but better as list.
The text:
MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS: EDUCATION, CERTIFICATION, AND/OR LICENSURE: Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology, Business Management, Hospital Administration, Accounting, Finance or other related field, AND Two (2) years of experience in pharmacy or healthcare OR one (1) year of experience with pharmacy financial reporting.

OR High School Diploma AND Eight (8) years' experience in a healthcare setting EXPERIENCE: Two (2) years of experience in a professional capacity in healthcare, preferably in Pharmacy.
We need to preserve exactly. Might be easier to keep as a with the whole block. But instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. This is a list of qualifications (alternatives). Could treat each alternative as a list item. However the block includes "EXPERIENCE:" line after the ORs. Might be separate.
Simplify: We'll make a
containing the whole minimum qualifications block as prose. That's acceptable because it's not a list of discrete items? But it's multiple alternatives; still could be prose. The instruction says use

We'll split into three main options plus experience requirement.
Option 1: Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology, Business Management, Hospital Administration, Accounting, Finance or other related field, AND Two (2) years of experience in pharmacy or healthcare OR one (1) year of experience with pharmacy financial reporting.
