We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections with real specific content. We need to parse the posting. Job title: Staff Project Controls Specialist (already shown, not repeated). Location: Albuquerque, NM or Kansas City, MO. 12 month contract. Description: includes many duties. We need to extract sections: maybe "About the role" (description summary), "Responsibilities" (list of duties), "Requirements" (education, experience, certifications), "Skills" (communication, MS Office, Primavera P6, etc.), "Benefits" (PTO, health, dental, 401k), maybe "Schedule" (12 month contract?), but schedule maybe not explicit. Pay not mentioned. So we should not create Pay or Schedule unless stated. There's "12 month contract" which is schedule? It's contract length, maybe schedule. The rule: include Schedule section only if posting actually states them. It does state "12 month contract". That could be considered schedule. But we need to see if we should treat as schedule. The rule: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It states "12 month contract". So we can include a Schedule section with that info. Benefits: they mention "ESPO has a comprehensive benefits package which includes PTO, Group Health and Dental Insurance, and 401k after you have satisfied the necessary waiting periods." So Benefits section. Pay: not mentioned, so omit. Now we need to format. We need to use

for section headings. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we need to strip out the EEO statement, the "If you need assistance applying..." etc. Also remove "View all open jobs at www.espocorp.com/jobs Leaders in Technical Recruiting & Staffing since 1965 ESPO has a comprehensive benefits package..." Actually benefits we keep but need to strip the surrounding fluff? The benefits sentence is part of the posting; we keep the benefits info. The rest like "Leaders in Technical Recruiting & Staffing since 1965" maybe considered boilerplate? It's not EEO but maybe still fluff. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So "Leaders in Technical Recruiting & Staffing since 1965" is not explicitly listed but could be considered boilerplate? It's a tagline. Might be considered navigation? Safer to keep? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. That's specific. So we can keep the tagline if not those categories. However, we also need to remove duplicated lines. There's no duplicated lines aside from maybe repeated "CANDIDATES CAN SIT IN KC, ABQ, PHX". That's location info; we keep. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include location, contract length, description duties, requirements, skills, benefits. We need to decide sections: About the role (maybe a brief summary). Could combine description paragraph into About the role. Then Responsibilities as list of duties. Requirements as list. Skills as list (communication, MS Office, Primavera P6, OSHA 10-hour, etc.). Benefits as list. We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's extract duties from description: Description text: "Must have extensive experience scheduling in Primavera P6 and good knowledge of the electrical T&D industry projects (transmission lines, substations, and distribution lines). Candidate must have excellent communication skills, be able to work in fast-paced environment, ability to work on a team, and ability to host meetings, seek out information from stakeholders to update schedules, be proactive in reporting and issues identification for schedules impacts that may impact the projects, and be able to manage a large volume of project schedules simultaneously.The Staff Project Controls Specialist will be responsible for leading the project controls processes with the internal project management team to execute project deliverables within budget and schedule.Ensure project set-up in the Enterprise Planning & Controls software.Analyze data, review logs, and run reports in the Enterprise Planning & Controls software or other tools.Create Work Breakdown Structure (WBS).Develop, implement, and maintain effective scheduling reports, cost reports, cash flows and forecasts for multiple projects.Follow project execution plans.Responsible for engineering, procurement and construction planning, scheduling, logistics and cost control.Serves as a point of contact for technical questions from the project team.Approve Purchase Orders and/or Subcontracts for proper coding.Input and document changes to cost reports or forecasts.Interfaces with the Project Management Team and Accounting Department to review project costs and contingency costs and support external audits.Review upstream (prime contract) and downstream (purchase order & subcontract) change orders.Develop and present a cash flow report.Develop various levels of schedules.Apply and review the entry of logic ties within the schedules.Monitor resource loading of a schedule.Support Interactive Project Planning Meetings (IPPM).Create various schedule reports and determine appropriate reporting format.Develop, review, and analyze pre-programmed project scheduling reports and back-up documentation for accuracy.Consults with the project team on schedule progress.Analyzes and evaluates schedule management involving the critical path method of scheduling techniques, estimating, project cost management and forecasting.Perform schedule what-if scenarios.Develop and maintain an earned value management system.Input and validate progress measurement.Develop and maintain progress curves.Perform material takeoffs.Perform quality checks and inspections on project controls deliverables.Perform field audits to validate accuracy of reporting and processes.Capable of assisting with Project Forensic Analysis.Performs other duties as assignedComplies with all policies and standards" We need to break into list items. Many sentences. We'll create a

      with each duty as
    • . Might be many but okay. Requirements: "Bachelor Degree in engineering, construction management or related field. and 3 years of direct project controls experience. Required orApplicable experience may be substituted for the degree requirement. Required Experience with Oracle Primavera P6 preferred.Excellent written and verbal communication skills.Excellent interpersonal skills.Proficient with Microsoft Office. OSHA 10-hour safety certification Ability to obtainCANDIDATES CAN SIT IN KC, ABQ, PHX" We need to parse: Bachelor Degree in engineering, construction management or related field and 3 years of direct project controls experience. Applicable experience may be substituted for the degree requirement. Experience with Oracle Primavera P6 preferred. Excellent written and verbal communication skills. Excellent interpersonal skills. Proficient with Microsoft Office. OSHA 10-hour safety certification. Ability to obtain (maybe security clearance?) but cut off. Also "CANDIDATES CAN SIT IN KC, ABQ, PHX" indicates location options. We'll include location maybe in About the role or separate? Could be part of About the role. We'll create About the role paragraph: Staff Project Controls Specialist - 12 month contract - located in Albuquerque, NM or Kansas City, MO (or also Phoenix? Actually "CANDIDATES CAN SIT IN KC, ABQ, PHX" includes Phoenix). So location options: Albuquerque, NM; Kansas City, MO; Phoenix, AZ. We'll include that. Now Benefits: "ESPO has a comprehensive benefits package which includes PTO, Group Health and Dental Insurance, and 401k after you have satisfied the necessary waiting periods." We'll make Benefits
        with those items. Skills: maybe separate from Requirements? The instruction says use headings for Skills. We'll extract skills: extensive experience scheduling in Primavera P6, good knowledge of electrical T&D industry projects (transmission lines, substations, distribution lines), excellent communication skills, ability to work in fast-paced environment, teamwork, host meetings, seek information from stakeholders, proactive reporting, issue identification, manage large volume of schedules, proficient with Microsoft Office, OSHA 10-hour safety certification. We'll put those in Skills
          . Now Responsibilities: we can list many duties from description. We need to avoid duplication: some duties also appear in Skills; but we can keep them separate as per instruction. We need to ensure we don't create empty sections. Now produce HTML. Structure:
