We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes a Summary paragraph, Qualifications, Duties, Benefits (VA offers...), Pay, Schedule, maybe Telework etc. Must not repeat job title. Use for section headings. Use
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do not include boilerplate. Must preserve all substantive info. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. The posting includes many details; we need to extract substantive content.
We need sections: About the role (maybe from Summary). Responsibilities (Duties). Requirements (Qualifications). Benefits (VA offers...). Pay (Competitive salary...). Schedule (Work Schedule...). Possibly also "Preferred Experience" could be part of Requirements.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". The posting includes Pay: Competitive salary - regular salary increases - potential for performance awards. That's substantive, so include Pay section. Schedule: Monday - Friday 06:30am - 3:00pm - 09:00am - 05:30pm - with on-call duties. That's substantive.
Benefits: VA offers a comprehensive total rewards package: includes Paid Time Off, Retirement, Insurance, Licensure, etc. That's substantive.
We need to avoid duplication: The posting repeats "VA offers a comprehensive total rewards package: VA Nurse Total Rewards" twice; we should include once.
We need to format lists: For Qualifications, we have many bullet-like statements but they are in prose. We could break into
- for each requirement. However the instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should convert those sections into lists.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we must include all details from Qualifications, Duties, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers (none present). Remove boilerplate like "Reference: For more information on this qualification standard - please visit https://www.va.gov/ohrm/QualificationStandards/." That's a reference link; is that boilerplate? It's a reference; maybe we keep? It's not cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. It's a reference; but it's not substantive? It's a link for more info; maybe we can keep as part of Qualifications? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The reference link is not those; but it's maybe considered a reference; but we could keep it as part of Qualifications? It's not a list item; we could include as a
with the link. However the instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; the link is substantive? It's a reference for more info; could be considered substantive. I'd keep it.
We also have "Preferred Experience:" lines; we should include those as part of Requirements (maybe as a sublist). We'll include them.

Then list of grade levels with scope education.
We need to include all that detail. It's a lot; we can break into list items for each bullet.
But we must preserve all substantive information; we cannot summarize away detail. So we need to include each point.
We could create a with many - items, each containing the sentence.
