STI/HIV/HepC/PCS Section Chief
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into short
or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it — never emit heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. Prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones.
We need to parse the posting.

- Recruiter Contact Information: Name: Kyle Sanders Email: kyle.sanders@ks.gov Mailing Address:1000 SW Jackson St. Suite 580 Topeka, KS 66612
- Job Application Process: steps (sign in, etc.) – we must remove application instructions per instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should drop the Job Application Process section entirely.
- Required Documents: transcripts, DD214 (if claiming Veteran’s Preference), resume, cover letter. Also mention attachments step. This is part of application instructions; we should remove? The instruction says remove application instructions. Likely we should drop Required Documents as well because it's part of application process. However the instruction says "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." The required documents are substantive for applying, but they are application instructions. The instruction says remove application instructions. So we should drop that section.
- Helpful Resources, How To Claim Veterans Preference, Disability Hiring Preference, EEO statement: these are boilerplate/legal; remove.
Thus we keep: About the agency (maybe as About the role?), Position Summary & Responsibilities, Qualifications (including Education, Licensing, Minimum Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications), Compensation (Pay), Benefits, Schedule (Work Schedule). Also maybe include "About the role" heading for agency description? The instruction says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have sections: About the role (agency overview), Responsibilities (position summary & responsibilities), Qualifications (education, licensing, min quals, preferred), Skills (maybe we can extract skills from qualifications: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access; proofreading; interpersonal; communication; analytical thinking; etc.) Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We must not create sections with filler. Ensure each section has substantive content.
We need to avoid duplicating lines.
Let's extract content.
About the role: agency description: "Kansas Department of Health and Environment: Our agency is led by Secretary Janet Stanek, who was appointed by Gov. Kelly in Dec 2021. KDHE is comprised of three divisions: Public Health, Environment, and Health Care Finance (which includes the State’s Medicaid program, KanCare). We are the only agency in the nation to have these three entities under one roof which allows us to take a holistic approach to improving and protecting the health and well-being of all Kansans." Also maybe include verification of identity and E-Verify? That's more about eligibility; could be part of About the role or maybe a separate "Requirements"? But we can include as part of About the role? Might be better to include under "Requirements" (like eligibility). However we have a section "Requirements" in the list of possible headings. Could use that for eligibility and sponsorship info. But we also have Qualifications separate. Let's think.
We have headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to decide what goes where.
- About the role: agency overview.
- Responsibilities: position summary & responsibilities (the long paragraph).
- Requirements: maybe include eligibility (verification of identity, E-Verify, no sponsorship, tax clearance, driver's license, veteran's preference eligibility? Actually veteran's preference is a preference, not requirement. But we can include driver's license as requirement. Also maybe include "Valid Driver's License" as requirement. Also include "Kansas Tax Clearance Certificate" as pre-employment requirement. Also include "Verification of identity and employment eligibility to work in the United States is required by federal law." and "E-Verify". Also "KDHE does not provide sponsorships for this position." Could be under Requirements.
- Qualifications: education, experience, etc.
- Skills: maybe list specific skills like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access; proofreading, editing, attention to detail; excellent interpersonal skills; excellent communication skills; evaluation and program analysis; analytical thinking; ability to organize, evaluate and motivate work teams; experience in organizing, evaluating and correlating work; ability to identify and analyze problems and select, implement and evaluate solutions; supervision of professional staff (includes budget preparation and administration). Could be under Skills.
- Benefits: list benefits.
- Pay: compensation.
- Schedule: work schedule.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Pay: we have actual number $79,500 (range). So we can include Pay section.
Schedule: we have Monday-Friday, 8am-5pm (Flexible schedules available). So include Schedule.
Benefits: we have list.
Now we need to ensure we don't repeat info across sections unnecessarily but preserve all substantive info. Some info may appear in multiple sections (like driver's license appears both in Qualifications and maybe Requirements). We need to preserve all; we can include in both if needed but avoid duplication? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." It doesn't forbid duplication, but we should avoid unnecessary duplication. However we can include driver's license under Qualifications (as licensing & certification) and also under Requirements maybe not needed. But we can keep it under Qualifications only. For Requirements we can focus on eligibility, sponsorship, tax clearance, etc.
Let's draft.
