Senior Budget Analyst Cost Management
for sections: 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: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Also remove duplicated lines, application instructions. Must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Must include Pay and Schedule only if posting actually states them. The posting includes Schedule: Full-time Hours: Standard workdays are Monday through Friday. Hours are between 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. Also location and travel. So schedule section can include that. Pay section includes pay range details. Benefits? Not mentioned. So we should not include Benefits unless present. There's no explicit benefits list. So omit Benefits. We need sections: About the role (intro paragraph), Responsibilities (list of duties), Requirements (maybe the qualifications options?), Qualifications (maybe the options?), Skills (Preferred Skills). The posting includes "Preferred Skills" list. Also includes "Option 1...Option 5" etc for qualifications. Also includes "Minimum Class Qualifications For Employment". So we can treat Requirements as the qualification options? Or separate Requirements and Qualifications. The instruction: use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Pay, Schedule. We'll need to decide what goes where. About the role: introductory paragraph describing OFMS and role. Responsibilities: the bullet list under "What You Will Do". Those are duties. Requirements: maybe the "Minimum Class Qualifications For Employment" or the options? Actually the options are qualification pathways. Could be Requirements (minimum qualifications). Qualifications could be preferred skills? But we already have Skills for preferred skills. So maybe Requirements = the qualification options (the 5 options). Qualifications = maybe the "Preferred Skills"? But they said Preferred Skills separate. So we can put Requirements = the qualification options (the 5 options). Qualifications = maybe the "Preferred Skills"? But they already have Skills heading. Could treat Skills as preferred skills. Then Qualifications could be something else like "Classified Indicator" etc? Not needed. Better to follow typical: Requirements = minimum qualifications (options). Qualifications = preferred skills? But they said Skills heading for e.g. Skills. So we can put Skills = Preferred Skills. Qualifications maybe left out if no distinct content besides skills. But we need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have content for Requirements (options). We have content for Skills (Preferred Skills). We have content for Pay and Schedule. We have About the role and Responsibilities. So we can omit Qualifications if no distinct content beyond skills. But we could also put Qualifications = the "Preferred Skills" and Skills = something else? No. Let's decide: About the role (intro). Responsibilities (list of duties). Requirements (the qualification options). Skills (Preferred Skills). Pay (pay range details). Schedule (hours). No Qualifications section. We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. Now we need to preserve all substantive information: include details like location, travel, position number? The instruction says do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we can include position number etc in a short paragraph maybe under About the role or after. But we should not create a heading for it. We can include it in a paragraph. Also include "Learn more about the Office by visiting the ODJFS OFMS webpage." That's a link? Not needed to preserve as link? We can keep as plain text. We must remove boilerplate like "Tips For Your Application", "Information in attached resumes..." etc. Also remove "Organization Job & Family Services Agency Contact Name and Information ODJFS Human Resources Team, ODJFS_Careers@jfs.ohio.gov Unposting Date Sep 21, 2026, 11:59:00 PM Primary Location United States of America-OHIO Compensation $34.53 per hour Classified Indicator Classified Primary Job Skill Accounting and Finance Technical Skills Budgeting, Data Analytics, Accounting and Finance, Communications, Research Professional Skills Attention to Detail, Critical Thinking, Interpreting Data, Problem Solving, Written Communication Agency Overview Who We Are ..." That's a lot of boilerplate at end. We should remove all that. We need to keep substantive info: The description of OFMS, responsibilities, qualifications options, preferred skills, pay details, schedule, location, travel.

Option 4: 12 months experience as Budget Analyst, 63261. Option 5: The equivalent of Minimum Class Qualifications For Employment noted above. We should keep the exact wording. Pay details: "Pay Information This position is in the State of Ohio’s OCSEA Pay Schedule, Pay Range 33.

Could present as a table or list. Since we must use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. For pay table, it's not a list of duties/requirements/benefits, but it's tabular data. Could use
with the table? But we cannot invent tags beyond those specified? The instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. It doesn't forbid using for tabular data. It says use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. It doesn't say we cannot use other tags like . Safer to use
and maybe embed the table as plain text? But we need to preserve all substantive info. Could format as a with etc. That's acceptable as not prohibited. However to be safe, we could present as a
containing the info in a readable format. But the instruction says use
for prose. The pay info is not exactly prose but could be considered prose. We'll put it in a
with line breaks using
. That preserves info. Schedule: "Schedule: Full-time Hours: Standard workdays are Monday through Friday. Hours are between 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. Location: This position will be headquartered at the Rhodes State Officer Tower - 30 E. Broad Street, Columbus, OH 43215 Travel: Occasional travel within the state of Ohio." We can include location and travel in schedule section or maybe separate? But schedule heading only for schedule. Could include location and travel as part of schedule section prose. Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. Let's construct:About the role
