No Job ID etc. Include sections only if posting has real specific content. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, scam warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Job Duties Job Posting End Date: ..." etc. We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's parse the posting. Key info: - Hiring range: $85,363 to $119,496 annually ($41.04 to $57.45 per hour). Starting rate depends on experience, education, qualifications. Advancement opportunities exist. - Benefits: 24 days of paid flexible time off and up to 12.5 holidays first year. Also comprehensive insurance (medical, dental, vision, flex benefits) link. Medical and dental clinic exclusive to employees at Anoka County Government Center. Pension plan and other retirement investment options. Advancement/professional development opportunities. - Work Location: Anoka County Government Center, 2100 3rd Ave, Anoka, MN 55303. Hybrid possible, some days remote, some office. Expected work hours Monday-Friday 8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. - Job Duties and Responsibilities: list of duties. - Qualifications and Requirements: Minimum Knowledge, Skills, Abilities: Bachelor's degree in social work or related field. Four years (2,080 annual hours) of job-related experience. In lieu of required education, equivalent combination may be substituted year-for-year. Valid driver's license and vehicle available for business use. - Preferred Knowledge, Skills, Abilities: Master's degree or higher in social work or related field. Five years or more (2,080 annual hours) of job-related experience. Experience working with diverse populations. Knowledge of community resources. Specialized training and understanding of ICWA and MIFPA requirements. Understanding of intergenerational trauma for Indigenous people. - Physical Demands and Work Conditions: Standard office environment. Vision abilities required: close vision, distance vision, ability to adjust focus, ability to see colors, shades, brightness. Hearing abilities required for general and phone communication, signals, machine sounds. Assignments sedentary, occasionally alternating between sitting, standing, walking, crouching, kneeling as required. Frequent wrist and finger manipulation to complete computer work. Occasional lifting of 10-20 lbs. Equipment used includes computers, phones, standard office equipment. Occasional travel to other county work sites as needed. Travel may require driving a county vehicle and/or personal vehicle. Reasonable accommodation may be made. - Selection Process: mention application shows education/experience, supplemental questions, etc. Might be considered boilerplate? It's part of process but not necessarily required to keep? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Selection Process might be considered application instructions? It says "It is important that your application shows all the relevant education and experience you possess. This information will determine which candidates will proceed in the selection process. A submitted application is also used to verify the answers to any supplemental questions." That's somewhat application instruction. Might be considered boilerplate; but it's not exactly EEO. However we might keep it as part of "Requirements"? Probably better to omit as it's about application. The instruction says remove application instructions. So we should omit Selection Process and Pre-employment Requirements (which includes background check etc.) as they are application instructions/requirements for hiring. Also remove "About Anoka County" maybe considered boilerplate? It's descriptive of organization, could be considered "About the role"? Actually "About Anoka County" is about the organization, not the role. Might be considered boilerplate but could be kept as "About the role"? The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have an "About the role" section that includes description of the role, mission, etc. The "About Anoka County" could be placed there. However we must not repeat job title as heading. So we can have

About the role

with prose describing the role, mission, etc. We need to include Pay and Benefits sections if posting actually states them. Yes, we have pay range and benefits details. So include

Pay

and

Benefits

. Also Schedule: we have expected work hours Monday-Friday 8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Also mention hybrid possible. So we can include Schedule section. Responsibilities: list duties. Requirements: maybe combine Minimum Knowledge, Skills, Abilities and Preferred? The instruction says use headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. Might be overlapping. We need to decide which sections to include based on content. We have "Qualifications And Requirements" heading in original. Could split into Requirements (minimum) and Qualifications (preferred) and Skills (maybe separate). But we can also combine. The instruction: "Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we can include those that have real content. We have content for Requirements (minimum), Qualifications (preferred), Skills (maybe we can list skills like knowledge of community resources, ICWA, etc). But we can also put skills under Qualifications. To avoid thin sections, we prefer few substantive sections. So maybe we combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section called "Requirements" that includes both minimum and preferred. Or we could have Requirements (minimum) and Qualifications (preferred) as separate if both have substantive content. The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine them into one "Requirements" section that includes both minimum and preferred. Then we could have a separate "Skills" section if we have distinct skill list not covered elsewhere. But the preferred includes knowledge of community resources, specialized training, understanding of intergenerational trauma. Those could be considered skills. However we can keep them in Requirements. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have specific numbers. Now we need to strip out boilerplate: Job Posting End Date, Hiring range repeated, etc. But we need to keep pay range. We'll include Pay section with the range and note starting rate depends on experience, education, qualifications, advancement opportunities. Benefits: include 24 days paid flexible time off, up to 12.5 holidays first year, comprehensive insurance (medical, dental, vision, flex benefits) link, medical and dental clinic exclusive to employees at Anoka County Government Center, pension plan and other retirement investment options, advancement/professional development opportunities. Schedule: expected work hours Monday-Friday 8:00 a.m.-4:30 p.m., hybrid possible (some days remote, some office). Also mention work location maybe? Work location could be in About the role or separate? Could be in About the role. But we have Work Location info; we could include in About the role or maybe a separate "Work Location" but not in allowed headings. So we can include in About the role. Responsibilities: list duties as
  • . Requirements: list minimum and preferred as
    • . Might be long; we can separate into two lists? But we can combine. We must not include duplicated lines. Ensure we don't repeat same info. Now produce HTML fragment. Let's craft.
