Registered Nurse- Medical/Surgical
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections with real specific content. The posting includes: Summary (EDRP eligibility), Qualifications (basic requirements, grade determinations), Duties (list), VA offers a comprehensive total rewards package (Benefits, Pay, Schedule etc). Also mentions Work Schedule: Fulltime - 1.0 FTE - Nights - 1930 - 0800 with alternating holidays & weekends. Also mentions Pay: Competitive salary - regular salary increases - potential for performance awards (under VA offers...). Benefits: Paid Time Off, Retirement, Insurance, Licensure, etc. Also mentions EDRP eligibility (maybe under Benefits? Could be separate but not required heading). We should not repeat job title. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Not present. Also remove duplicated lines. We need to preserve all substantive info.
We need to decide sections: Could have "About the role" (maybe summary), "Responsibilities" (duties), "Requirements" (basic requirements), "Qualifications" (grade determinations?), "Benefits", "Pay", "Schedule". The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can choose those that have content.
We have content for About the role (summary about EDRP eligibility). Responsibilities (duties). Requirements (basic requirements: English proficiency, graduation, licensure, etc). Qualifications (grade determinations). Benefits (VA total rewards package). Pay (competitive salary etc). Schedule (work schedule). Skills maybe not explicit; we can omit if no specific content.
We must not create sections with filler like "not specified". So only include those with real content.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.

Qualifications (Grade Determinations): The scope education details for each grade level. We need to preserve all detail. That's a lot of text. We'll need to include it as maybe a with each grade level as - containing the description. Could be long but okay.
We need to capture all grade determinations text:
"Grade Determinations: The following Scope - Education and Dimension criteria must be met in determining the grade assignment of candidates - and if appropriate - the level within a gradeThe Dimension requirements (Practice - Veteran/Patient Driven Care - Leadership - Professional Development and Evidence-Based Practice/Research) are detailed for each grade and level within the online assessment: https://apply.usastaffing.gov/ViewQuestionnaire/13061502Grade/Level Scope Education Nurse I - Level I Delivers fundamental - knowledge-based care to assigned clients while developing technical competenciesAn Associate Degree (ADN) or Diploma in Nursing - with no additional professional nursing requiredNurse I - Level II Demonstrates integration of biopsychosocial concepts - cognitive skills and technically competent practice in providing care to clients with basic or complexAn ADN or Diploma in Nursing AND 1 year of specialized nursing experience equivalent to Nurse I - Level 1 ;OR a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) with no additional professional nursing experience requiredNurse I - Level III Demonstrates proficiency in practice based on conscious and deliberate planningSelf-directed in goal setting for managing complex client situationsAn ADN or Diploma in Nursing AND 2 years of professional nursing experience in which one year is equivalent to Nurse I - Level 2OR a BSN and 1 year of professional nursing experience equivalent to the Nurse I - Level 2OR a Master's degree in nursing (MSN) and no additional professional nursing experienceOR a Master's degree in a *related field with a BSN and no additional professional nursing experienceNurse II Demonstrates leadership in delivering and improving holistic care through collaborative strategies with othersA BSN with 2 years of professional nursing equivalent to Nurse I - Level 3OR an MSN with one year of specialized nursing experience equivalent to Nurse I - Level 3OR a Master's degree in a *related field with a BSN and one year of specialized nursing experience equivalent to Nurse I - Level 3OR a Doctoral degree in Nursing with no professional nursing experienceOR a Doctoral degree in a *related field with a BSN with no additional professional nursing experienceNurse III Executes position responsibilities that demonstrate leadership - experience and creative approaches to management of complex client care beyond the immediate practice settingMSN and 2 years of specialized nursing experience - one of which is equivalent to Nurse II and meets all dimension requirements for Nurse IIIOR a Master's degree in *related field with BSN and two years of specialized nursing experience - one of which is equivalent to Nurse II and meets all dimension requirements for Nurse IIIOR a Doctoral degree in Nursing with and one year of specialized nursing experience equivalent to Nurse II and meets all dimension requirements for Nurse IIIOR a Doctoral degree in a *related field with a BSN and one year of specialized nursing experience equivalent to Nurse II and meets all dimension requirements for Nurse III*Note: Foreign education programs/degrees are not creditable as related degreesReference: For more information on this qualification standard - please visit https://www.va.gov/ohrm/QualificationStandards/"
We need to preserve that exactly but maybe we can format as list.
We'll create
Qualifications
then - ... each grade level.
But we need to keep the text as is, not summarizing. We'll break into separate
- for each grade level.
We'll need to include the introductory sentence about Scope - Education and Dimension criteria and link.
We'll include that as a
before list.
Benefits: from "VA offers a comprehensive total rewards package: VA Nurse Total Rewards Pay: Competitive salary - regular salary increases - potential for performance awards Paid Time Off: 50 days of paid time off per year (26 days of annual leave - 13 days of sick leave - 11 paid Federal holidays per year) Retirement: Traditional federal pension (5 years vesting) and federal 401K with up to 5% in contributions by VA Insurance: Federal health/vision/dental/term life/long-term care (many federal insurance programs can be carried into retirement) Licensure: 1 full and unrestricted license from any US State or territory"
We can split into Benefits section with subpoints.
Pay: maybe we separate Pay as its own heading: "Competitive salary - regular salary increases - potential for performance awards". But the instruction says include Pay section only if posting actually states them. It does state that under VA offers... So we can have Pay section.
Schedule: "Work Schedule: Fulltime - 1.0 FTE - Nights - 1930 - 0800 with alternating holidays & weekends Compressed/Flexible: Not Available Telework: Not Available Virtual: This is not a virtual position". So we have schedule details.
We should not include "Compressed/Flexible: Not Available" etc if it's just stating not available; but it's still specific content. We can include.
We must not include sections like Skills if no specific content.
Now produce HTML.
We'll need to escape any special characters? Not needed.
