Supervisory Pipefitter
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include a section only when posting has real specific content. We have content for: Summary (maybe About the role), Qualifications, Duties (Responsibilities), Work Schedule (Schedule), Physical Requirements (maybe Requirements?), Working Conditions (maybe Requirements? but could be part of Requirements). We need to map.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Title is "Supervisory Pipefitter". Not to use as heading.
We must not include Job ID etc.
We must remove boilerplate.
We need to preserve all substantive info.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits.
We need to use
for prose.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have no pay or benefits info, so we should not include Pay or Benefits sections.
We need to include Schedule section because work schedule is given: Monday-Friday 7:30am-4:00pm.
We need to include Requirements? The posting includes Qualifications (experience, screen-out element, etc.) and also Physical Requirements and Working Conditions. Those could be under Requirements or maybe separate sections like Requirements (for qualifications) and maybe a separate section for Physical Requirements? But only allowed headings are the given list. We could put physical requirements under Requirements (maybe as a list). Or we could create a separate section like "Requirements" for qualifications and "Skills" for skills? But we have no explicit skills list. Could put duties under Responsibilities.
Thus sections: About the role (summary), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements (qualifications + physical requirements + working conditions?), Schedule (work schedule). Possibly also Skills? Not needed.
We must not create empty sections.
Let's extract content.
Summary: "This position is located at the Corporal Michael J. Crescenz VA Medical Center (CMCVAMC) in the Facilities Management Service under the general supervision of the Maintenance Supervisor. The Pipefitter is a key position in maintaining the safe - uninterrupted use of the plumbing and steam systems throughout of the facility - which are very complex - potentially dangerous - and critically needed resources for the Medical Center."
We can clean up hyphens.
Qualifications: includes experience, screen-out element, etc. We need to preserve all substantive info. That's lengthy. We'll need to put into
prose or

Part-time experience will be credited on the basis of time actually spent in appropriate activities.

Physical Requirements
but not allowed heading; we only have allowed headings list. Could we incorporate physical requirements into Requirements section? Probably yes, as part of requirements. But we might also add a separate section for "Physical Requirements" if we treat it as a subsection? Not allowed headings. So we must embed within Requirements or maybe under "Requirements" we can have subheadings? Not allowed; only h3 for section headings. Could we use for Physical Requirements? It's not in the allowed list but maybe allowed? The instruction: "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., implying those are examples but we should use those headings. It says "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." Likely they expect only those headings. So we should not create other headings like Physical Requirements. So we need to fold that content into Requirements or maybe Responsibilities? Probably Requirements.
Similarly Working Conditions could be part of Requirements.
Thus Requirements section will contain qualifications, physical requirements, working conditions.
We need to preserve all substantive info; we can include paragraphs and lists.
