Principal Planner

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The description includes "General Description" and "Essential Functions", "Minimum Education & Experience Requirement", "Knowledge, Skills & Abilities", "Essential Physical Skills", "Work Environment", "Additional Information". We need to map to headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use only those headings if content exists. We must not repeat job title. No Pay/Schedule/Benefits unless present. The posting does not mention pay, schedule, benefits. So we should not include those sections. We need sections for About the role (maybe general description), Responsibilities (essential functions), Requirements (minimum education & experience), Qualifications (maybe knowledge, skills & abilities?), Skills (maybe essential physical skills? but that's more physical). However we need to follow instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can choose which to include based on content. We have: - General Description: could be About the role. - Essential Functions: Responsibilities. - Minimum Education & Experience Requirement: Requirements. - Knowledge, Skills & Abilities: could be Qualifications or Skills. Since we have both Qualifications and Skills headings, we could split: Qualifications = knowledge, skills & abilities (maybe includes knowledge, skills, abilities). Skills = essential physical skills? Or maybe we treat Knowledge, Skills & Abilities as Qualifications, and Essential Physical Skills as Skills. Work Environment maybe not a heading; could be omitted or included in About? But we should not create headings without real content. Work Environment is present; but not in list of allowed headings. We could omit it or incorporate into About the role? The instruction: "Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., meaning those are examples; we could use other headings? Probably we should stick to those. But we have content like Work Environment that doesn't fit. Could we omit? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we must keep work environment info. If we don't have a heading for it, we could put it under a generic

without heading? But they said use headings for sections; but we could still have a

without heading. The instruction: "Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It doesn't forbid other headings, but suggests using those. Safer to include Work Environment as a

under maybe "About the role" or separate heading not in list? Might be okay to add a heading like "Work Environment" but not in the list; risk of violating. Better to incorporate into About the role paragraph. Similarly, Additional Information includes incomplete applications, background check, EEO, veterans preference. That's substantive; we could put under a heading like "Additional Information" but not in list. Could incorporate into About the role or maybe under Requirements? Might be okay to add a heading "Additional Information" as it's substantive. The instruction says use h3 for section headings (e.g. list). It doesn't say you cannot use other headings, but the examples are given. To be safe, we could use those headings only and embed other info in paragraphs under appropriate sections. Let's map: About the role: General Description + Work Environment + Additional Information (maybe). But that could be long. Responsibilities: Essential Functions. Requirements: Minimum Education & Experience Requirement. Qualifications: Knowledge, Skills & Abilities. Skills: Essential Physical Skills. We should not include Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Now we need to output HTML fragment: use

for each section heading, then content:

for prose,

• for lists. We need to extract lists where appropriate. Essential Functions is a long paragraph with many duties separated by periods; could be turned into list items. The instruction: Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should convert the essential functions into list items. Similarly, Minimum Education & Experience Requirement is a sentence; not a list. Knowledge, Skills & Abilities is a list of many items separated by periods; we can make list. Essential Physical Skills is a list separated by commas; we can make list. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details. Let's extract each section. General Description paragraph: "Advanced and highly responsible position performing and supervising complex projects and long-range planning in a fast-growing County that prides itself on innovative planning practices. General responsibilities include performing the review of development applications in multiple master planned areas, directing teams in developing master and special area plans, evaluating and formulating land use and transportation strategies, conducting policy research, analyzing and appraising elements of the Comprehensive Plan, and preparing written analyses and presentations of development applications and proposals. This employee will often be the team lead on planning projects of various kinds." We'll keep as prose. Work Environment paragraph: "Works inside in an office environment.Knowledge of the occupational hazards and safety precautions of the industry." Actually the text: "Work Environment: Works inside in an office environment.Knowledge of the occupational hazards and safety precautions of the industry." There's missing space after period. We'll keep as is. Additional Information paragraph: includes several sentences: "Incomplete applications will not be considered. Applications will continue to be received until the listed closing date or the position is filled, whichever is earliest. Submission of an application does not guarantee the applicant an interview. Applicants will be subject to a criminal background check. Nassau County is an Equal Opportunity Employer and a Drug Free Workplace.

This position may be required to work in a safety sensitive capacity at any time based on emergency declaration or other operational need.

We'll keep one. Now convert each to

We'll keep as prose (maybe could be list but not required). It's not a list per se but could be list; but instruction: use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. This is a list of requirements; we could make list. Safer to make list. Knowledge, Skills & Abilities: many items separated by periods.
