for prose.
We must not repeat job title as heading. So we will not have heading for job title.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. That means we should keep the details, not condense too much. However we can group items into lists.
We need to decide which sections to include:
- About the role (intro paragraph). Could be
About the role
then ...
- Responsibilities: essential job functions list (maybe also non-essential). Could be Responsibilities
then - each essential function. Also maybe non-essential as separate list? Could combine but better to separate essential vs non-essential? The instruction: use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can have two lists: Essential Job Functions and Non-essential Job Functions. Could be under Responsibilities heading with subheadings? But we cannot add extra headings beyond the allowed ones? The instruction only says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but likely they want only those. We could embed subheadings as or just include in list items. Simpler: Under Responsibilities, we can have two lists, each preceded by a describing (like "Essential Job Functions:").
- Requirements: maybe education and experience, certifications/licenses. Could be
Requirements
then lists.
- Qualifications: maybe knowledge, skills, abilities. Could be Qualifications
then lists.
- Skills: maybe separate from Qualifications? The instruction includes Skills as a possible heading. We could split knowledge, skills, abilities into Skills section. But we already have Qualifications heading; maybe we combine knowledge, skills, abilities under Qualifications. However we have both Qualifications and Skills headings allowed; we need to decide based on content. The posting has "Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities" section. That could go under Skills heading. The "Education And Experience" and "CERTIFICATIONS OR LICENSES" could go under Requirements. The "Physical And Environmental Requirements" could also go under Requirements or maybe under Qualifications? Probably Requirements.
- Benefits: we have benefits paragraph.
- Pay: salary range.
- Schedule: mention split shifts and non-consecutive days off.
We must not include boilerplate like internal employee note, EEO, veterans preference, etc. Also remove "Note: May Require Assessment(s). May fill multiple positions. May establish an eligibility list." That's maybe not boilerplate but could be considered minor metadata; we could fold into a short p or drop. The instruction: "Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short or drop it." So we can include a short p for closing date maybe.
We must preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the details of essential functions, etc. Not summarizing away.
Thus we need to output a fairly large HTML fragment with many list items.
