OTHR$79k/yrFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections with real specific content. We need to parse the posting. Job title: Policy Analyst (not to repeat as heading). We need sections. We have: - About the role: maybe a paragraph summarizing the role. The posting includes: "Under general direction, conduct research and analysis of community outreach strategies and intergovernmental engagement opportunities to support policy initiatives targeting specific populations served by city departments. Provides strategic insights on communications and policy matters impacting these groups. Oversee the development and execution of communications strategies, including public information materials and outreach efforts in collaboration with Alderpersons and their staff, to advance city Essential Duties programs and services. Performs other related duties as required. Works with department staff to advance legislation agenda through departmental and City Council processes. Facilitates intergovernmental coordination to streamline decision-making processes. Coordinates meetings, conferences, and other events related to intergovernmental affairs. Builds and maintains relationships with other government agencies and organizations to support strategic goals and initiatives. Monitors legislation and regulations impacting government policies and objectives. Provides advice to government officials on intergovernmental issues and policy implications. Prepares and delivers presentations on government policies and initiatives to various audiences. Conducts research and provides analysis on legislative and policy issues, particularly in the context of community engagement and intergovernmental outreach affecting targeted populations. Assists in the development and implementation of policies and outreach strategies in collaboration with aldermanic offices to advance city department initiatives. Drafts policy briefs, reports, and other public information materials, ensuring they are clear, informative, and accessible to a broad audience. Clearly communicates the policies and goals of the government to stakeholders and policymakers. Ensures that communication between government agencies and other stakeholders is clear and effective." That's a lot of duties. Could be Responsibilities section. - Requirements: maybe Minimum Qualifications: "Graduation from an accredited college or university with a bachelor’s degree in communications, Political Science, Political or Government Relations, Public Administration, the Social Sciences or a directly related field, PLUS three years of work experience in community outreach and development, government relations, and writing for programs and services, or an equivalent combination of education, training and experience provided that the minimum degree requirement is met." - Skills: maybe not explicitly listed; could infer from duties: research, analysis, communications, strategic insights, etc. But we should not invent. If not explicit, we shouldn't create a Skills section. - Benefits: The posting includes a link to benefits website but no specifics. It says "For Information on our employees benefits please visit our benefits website at: ..." No specific benefits listed. So we should NOT create Benefits section because no specific content. - Pay: Starting Salary: BX16, $ 78,768. That's specific. So we can include Pay section with that. - Schedule: Location: City Hall, 10th Floor Days: Monday – Friday Hours: 9:00am – 5:00pm. That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section. - Additional Duties: "Additional Duties May Be Required For This Position" is vague; we can ignore. - Also there is "Number of Positions: 1 Starting Salary: BX16, $ 78,768 Applications for this position will be accepted until 11:59pm CDT on 10/7/2026". That's metadata; we could put in a short paragraph maybe under About the role? But instructions: do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. So we could include a short paragraph with that info (Number of positions, application deadline). Not required to be a heading. We need to avoid boilerplate: EEO, diversity statements, commitment to diversity, etc. Remove those. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to keep the duties, qualifications, pay, schedule, location, number of positions, deadline. We need to format with

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

    for prose. We need to decide which content is list vs prose. Duties: many bullet-like sentences. Could be formatted as

    • each duty. Requirements: could be a

      or maybe a

        if we break into education and experience. But it's a single sentence; we can use

        . Schedule: could be

        with location, days, hours. Pay:

        with starting salary. About the role: maybe a brief summary paragraph. Could combine some of the duties? But we already have duties list. Perhaps About the role is a short overview: "Under general direction, conduct research and analysis of community outreach strategies and intergovernmental engagement opportunities to support policy initiatives targeting specific populations served by city departments. Provides strategic insights on communications and policy matters impacting these groups." That's from the posting. We'll put that as

        . Then Responsibilities: list of duties. We need to ensure we don't repeat content. We'll split: About the role = first two sentences. Responsibilities = rest of duties. Let's extract duties sentences after the first two. Original paragraph: "Under general direction, conduct research and analysis of community outreach strategies and intergovernmental engagement opportunities to support policy initiatives targeting specific populations served by city departments. Provides strategic insights on communications and policy matters impacting these groups. Oversee the development and execution of communications strategies, including public information materials and outreach efforts in collaboration with Alderpersons and their staff, to advance city Essential Duties programs and services. Performs other related duties as required. Works with department staff to advance legislation agenda through departmental and City Council processes. Facilitates intergovernmental coordination to streamline decision-making processes. Coordinates meetings, conferences, and other events related to intergovernmental affairs. Builds and maintains relationships with other government agencies and organizations to support strategic goals and initiatives. Monitors legislation and regulations impacting government policies and objectives. Provides advice to government officials on intergovernmental issues and policy implications. Prepares and delivers presentations on government policies and initiatives to various audiences. Conducts research and provides analysis on legislative and policy issues, particularly in the context of community engagement and intergovernmental outreach affecting targeted populations. Assists in the development and implementation of policies and outreach strategies in collaboration with aldermanic offices to advance city department initiatives. Drafts policy briefs, reports, and other public information materials, ensuring they are clear, informative, and accessible to a broad audience. Clearly communicates the policies and goals of the government to stakeholders and policymakers. Ensures that communication between government agencies and other stakeholders is clear and effective." We'll treat first two sentences as About the role. Responsibilities: the rest as list items. Now Requirements: Minimum Qualifications paragraph. We could also include "Number of Positions: 1" and "Applications for this position will be accepted until 11:59pm CDT on 10/7/2026" as a short paragraph maybe under About the role or separate metadata. Let's add a

        after About the role maybe. But we must not create extra headings for metadata. Thus final HTML:

        Pay

        Starting Salary: BX16, $78,768

        Schedule

        Location: City Hall, 10th Floor. Days: Monday – Friday. Hours: 9:00am – 5:00pm.

        We should not include Benefits section because no specific content. Check for any other specific content: "THIS POSITION IS NOT CAREER SERVICE" maybe could be included as a note? It's substantive but not a heading. Could be added as a

        under About the role or Schedule. Might be worth including. The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information. So we should include that. Where to put? Could be a short paragraph after Schedule or under About the role. Let's add a

        after Schedule: "This position is not career service." Also there is "Additional Duties May Be Required For This Position" - that's vague; maybe we can ignore as it's not specific. Also there is location already captured. Also there is "For Information on our employees benefits please visit our benefits website at: ..." and "For Information on our salary and title structure visit our classifications website at: ..." Those are links but not specific benefits; we should not include them as they are just references. The instruction: remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Those are informational links but not boilerplate? They are references to external sites; they might be considered navigation? Probably we should drop them as they are not substantive content about the job. The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." The links are not substantive about the job itself; they are just references. I'd drop them. Also there is "COMMITMENT TO DIVERSITY..." etc - remove. Also "ALL REFERENCES TO POLITICAL SPONSORSHIP..." remove. Also "The City of Chicago is an Equal Employment Opportunity, Military Friendly, and Fair Chance Employer." remove. Also "City of Chicago Brandon Johnson, Mayor Job Posting Sep 23, 2026, 2:19:42 PM" - remove as metadata? Could be dropped. Thus final HTML as above plus the "This position is not career service." Let's add that as a

        after Schedule. Now ensure we didn't repeat job title
