Registered Nurse - Community Living Center
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate like EEO, navigation, cookie, etc. Must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Must not invent.
We need to parse the posting.
Key info:
- Summary: OPEN CONTINUOUS ANNOUNCEMENT etc. Might be considered metadata; we can fold into short p or drop. Probably not needed as a section.
- EDRP eligibility note.
- Recruitment/relocation incentive may be authorized.
- Alternate Work Schedule available (Work 72 hours - get paid for 80 hours).
- Qualifications: Basic Requirements: English Language Proficiency, graduation from accredited nursing program, etc. Lots of detail.
- Grade Determinations: Scope - Education and Dimension criteria for grades Nurse I Level I-III, Nurse II, Nurse III. This is detailed qualification info.
- Physical Requirements: mention pre-employment exam.
- Duties: description of RN position at Papillion - CHI Midlands Hospital Campus, CLC details, duties list.
- Preferred Experience: Long-term care and/or rehabilitation experience.
- VA offers a comprehensive total rewards package: then list Pay, PTO, Retirement, Insurance, Licensure, Work Schedule, Telework not available, Relocation/Recruitment Incentives, EDPR authorized, etc.
- Also mention Permanent Change of Station not authorized.
- Whole Health System etc.
We need to decide sections.
Potential sections:
- About the role (maybe summary of mission, location, etc.)
- Responsibilities (duties)
- Requirements / Qualifications (basic requirements, grade determinations, physical requirements)
- Skills (maybe preferred experience)
- Benefits (total rewards package: PTO, retirement, insurance, licensure, etc.)
- Pay (maybe mention competitive salary, regular increases, performance awards)
- Schedule (work schedule, day/night shifts, AWS, etc.)
But we must only include sections if posting has real specific content. The posting includes:
- Pay: "Competitive salary - regular salary increases - potential for performance awards". That's specific enough? It's not a number but it's substantive. We can include Pay section.
- Schedule: "Day and Night shifts available to include rotating weekends and holidays Alternate Work Schedule (AWS) - work 72 hours per pay period (12-hour shifts only) once initial orientation is completed Day shift: 0630-1900 Night shift: 1830-0700". That's specific.
- Benefits: list of PTO, retirement, insurance, licensure, etc. That's substantive.
- Requirements: includes basic requirements (English proficiency, education, licensure), grade determinations (detailed), physical requirements.
- Responsibilities: duties list.
- About the role: maybe mission, location, CLC description.
- Skills: Preferred Experience: Long-term care and/or rehabilitation experience. Could be under Skills or Requirements. Could be a Skills section.
We must not create sections with filler like "not specified". All sections we create must have content.
We must not repeat job title as heading.
We must not include Job ID etc.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, navigation, legal, scam-warning, duplicated lines.
We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail.
Thus we need to include all the details from the posting, but we can reorganize into sections.
We must output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
We need to use for section headings, - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We must not repeat job title as heading.
We need to decide what goes into each section.
Let's extract content.
