We must not include application instructions, selection plan, etc. We must preserve all substantive info; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep specifics like schedule times, shift, etc. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's craft:

About the role

Its mission is to improve quality of life through transportation, maintaining a significant transportation infrastructure system essential for mobility, economic and community development while preserving environmental and cultural resources. DOT is committed to cultivating a diverse staff representative of the communities it serves.

Schedule

Full‑time (40 hours per week), First Shift (7:30 A.M. – 4:00 P.M.), Monday – Friday, on‑site.

We must not include Pay section. Check for any leftover boilerplate: we removed "Visit our State Employee Benefits Overview page!" but we kept as benefit bullet. Good. We must ensure we didn't repeat job title as heading. We didn't. We didn't include Job ID. We preserved all substantive info: schedule, location requirement, CDL, MEC, bridge specifics, military waiver, experience, substitutions, preferred qualifications, skills, benefits, about us, purpose of job class, responsibilities. We omitted some details like list of districts and locations (the long list). That is substantive but maybe not required to be a section; but we could include as a note under Requirements? The instruction: "To qualify for a desired location, you must live within 30 miles of the garage locations listed below." Then they list many locations. That is location-specific info. Should we preserve? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information. The list of districts and locations is substantive. Should we include it? Could be a separate section "Locations" but we don't have a heading for Locations in allowed headings list. The allowed headings are only those enumerated; we cannot create other headings. But we could incorporate location info into Requirements or About the role as a paragraph. The rule: "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 likely we should only use those headings. It didn't forbid other headings, but says "Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It suggests we should use those headings for sections. It didn't say we cannot use other headings, but to be safe we stick to those. Thus we can include location info in Requirements paragraph: "You must live within 30 miles of the garage location for the desired work site (see list of districts and locations: District 1 ...)." We could include the list inline. That preserves info. Let's add a sentence: "You must live within 30 miles of the garage location for the desired work site (see list of districts and locations: District 1, District 2, District 3, District 4, Bolton, Canterbury, Branford, Avon, East Hartford, Colchester, Darien, Beacon Falls, East Hartford Signs and Markings, East Hampton, Darien Bridge, Cornwall, East Windsor, Franklin Bridge, Guilford, Danbury, Farmington, Groton, Milford, East Granby, Glastonbury, Mansfield, Milford Bridge, Litchfield, Hartford Bridge, Norwich (E. Great Plains), New Canaan, New Milford, Meriden, Norwich (Occum), New Haven, North Canaan, Middletown, Old Saybrook, North Haven, Southbury, Rocky Hill, Sign Shop, Old Saybrook Bridge, North Haven Signs and Markings, Thomaston, Southington, Plainfield Signs and Markings, Orange, Torrington Bridge, Vernon, Pomfret, Stratford, Torrington S & M, West Willington, Putnam, Trumbull, Waterbury, Wethersfield, Tylerville, Wallingford, Winsted, Windsor, Waterford, Westport, Union)." That's a lot but we can include. We need to ensure we don't exceed but it's fine. Now
