We need to produce sections: About the role (maybe summary), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide what content goes where. About the role: could be a brief paragraph describing the role: Under direction of Facility Director, Psychologist provides psychological services through pre-admission process to placement in community or another facility, ongoing interaction, therapeutic interventions, evaluations, IHP team, work at various sites, shift/extended hours as needed. Responsibilities: list of duties: Provide psychological services, therapeutic interventions (individual/group therapy), perform initial/ongoing psychological evaluations/assessments per policy, participate in Interdisciplinary Team for IHP development/implementation, work at various sites, shift and extended hours as needed. Requirements: maybe special requirements: Drug Screening, Background Investigation, Medical Clearance, submit STD 678 and copy of Psychology license, complete Duties Performed section, no "see resume". Also eligibility categories? Might be qualifications. Qualifications: maybe Minimum Qualifications from Classification Specification (not given explicitly). But we have info: New to State candidates hired into minimum salary. Could note that applicants must meet Minimum Qualifications stated in Classification Specification. Also eligibility categories: currently in classification, eligible for lateral transfer, reinstatement, list/LEAP eligibility, obtaining list eligibility, SROA/Surplus eligibility. Could be qualifications. Skills: maybe not explicitly listed; could infer: psychological assessment, therapy, interdisciplinary teamwork, etc. But we should not invent. If no explicit skills, we should omit Skills section. Benefits: we have medical, dental, vision insurance, retirement benefits, CalPERS Health Benefit Summary 2026. Also note about salary reduction 3% for 5 hours personal leave per month effective Oct 1, 2025. That's more about pay/benefits. Pay: salary range $6,503.00 - $13,272.00. Also note about salary reduction 3% for personal leave. Schedule: Work Location: Riverside County, In Office (Telework: In Office). Job Type: Permanent, Full Time. Work at various sites, shift and extended hours as needed. So schedule: Full-time, may require varied shifts and extended hours. We must not include placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". We have actual salary range. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not include Job ID etc. So we can drop those lines. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, application instructions details beyond needed? We need to preserve substantive info; application instructions like how to apply, where to send, required documents are substantive. Should we include them? The instruction says: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." Wait: It says remove application instructions. So we should NOT include application instructions. That includes how to apply, where to send, required documents, etc. So we must drop those. Thus we keep only job description content: duties, responsibilities, requirements, qualifications, benefits, pay, schedule, department info maybe as About the role. We must not include contact info? That might be considered application instructions? It's contact for questions; could be considered part of application instructions. Safer to remove contact info and EEO etc. We must preserve all substantive information; but the instruction says remove application instructions. So we must not include any "How To Apply", "Required Application Package Documents", "Contact Information", "Eligibility Information", etc. That seems contradictory to preserving all substantive info, but they explicitly say remove application instructions. So we follow that. Thus we keep: Job description paragraph, duties list, special requirements (drug screening, background investigation, medical clearance, submit STD 678 and copy of psychology license, complete duties performed). Also maybe eligibility categories? That's part of "Who May Apply" which is application instructions? Might be considered eligibility info; but it's about who may apply, which is part of application instructions. Probably remove. Department Information: could be part of About the role. Benefits: keep. Pay: keep salary range and note about salary reduction. Schedule: keep work location, telework, job type, shift/extended hours. We must not include headings with empty content. Now produce HTML. Structure:
