We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include details like location Harrisburg, PA, work hours, telework details, etc.
Let's extract content.

Additional details may be provided during the interview.
Salary: In some cases, the starting salary may be non-negotiable. You will receive further communication regarding this position via email. Check your email, including spam/junk folders, for these notices."
We need to keep schedule details: full-time 37.5 hrs, hours 7:30am-3:30 Mon-Fri with 30-min lunch, location Harrisburg PA, report to office up to 3 days a week, telework up to 2 days a week, need high-speed internet, approved location in PA, etc. Also note about trainee position and promotion after 12 months. That's substantive.
We should not include "Salary: In some cases, the starting salary may be non-negotiable." That's vague; we could omit that sentence as it's not specific. Also "You will receive further communication regarding this position via email. Check your email, including spam/junk folders, for these notices." That's application instruction; we should remove.
Thus schedule section will contain the rest.
Required Experience, Training & Eligibility:
"QUALIFICATIONS Minimum Experience and Training Requirements: Three years of experience in advanced clerical or technical work which includes or is supplemented by either one year of experience applying basic computer skills and techniques or three (3) credits in computer basics and techniques; or Associate Degree that includes or is supplemented by three (3) credits of computer basics and techniques; or Any equivalent combination of education, experience, and training which includes one year of advanced clerical or technical work applying basic computer skills and techniques or three (3) credits of computer basics and techniques.

You must be able to perform Essential Functions as presented in the linked Position Description. Legal Requirements: A conditional offer of employment will require submission of criminal history reports. See hiring agency contact information."
We need to keep qualifications and maybe residency requirement, essential functions, criminal history reports. However "Legal Requirements: A conditional offer of employment will require submission of criminal history reports. See hiring agency contact information." That's somewhat boilerplate but it's a specific requirement. Might keep. However we need to remove duplicated lines, cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. This is legal requirement but it's specific to the job; we can keep.
We should not include "See hiring agency contact information." That's vague; maybe we keep as part of requirement.
We also need to strip out "Other Requirements: You must meet the PA residency requirement . For more information on ways to meet PA residency requirements, follow the link and click on Residency Guidelines." That's a requirement; we can keep the requirement but maybe drop the link instruction. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The link to residency guidelines is like navigation; we can drop that sentence but keep the requirement "You must meet the PA residency requirement". Similarly "You must be able to perform Essential Functions as presented in the linked Position Description." That's a requirement but references a link; we can keep the requirement but maybe drop the link part. However we need to preserve substantive information; the requirement is to perform essential functions; we can keep that phrase without the link.
Thus qualifications section will contain paragraphs.
We need to format as
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For qualifications, it's a paragraph with multiple conditions; we could break into list items for each bullet? The original is not a list but we can convert to list for clarity. The rule: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should present requirements as a list.
Thus we can create
