Transportation Operations Technician II - Temporary
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). The posting has sections: Overview, Who May Apply, Environmental Factors, Minimum Qualifications, Special Requirements, CDL Application Requirements, Equal Opportunity Employer. We need to map to appropriate headings. The instruction says: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should use those headings if content matches. We need to include a section only when posting has real, specific content for it. We should not repeat job title as heading. We should not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. We should fold minor metadata into short
or drop it. We need to preserve all substantive information. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we need to remove Equal Opportunity Employer section? It's boilerplate EEO. The instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate. So we should drop that section entirely. Also remove application instructions like "Resumes will not be accepted via e-mail. You must apply online to be considered." Also remove contact info? The contact email maybe not boilerplate but could be considered minor metadata; we can fold into a short
. The instruction: "fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." So contact email can be a short p. We need to keep Overview description, Who May Apply (maybe as a short p), Environmental Factors (maybe as Responsibilities? Actually Environmental Factors is about working conditions; could be under Responsibilities or maybe a separate section like "Working Conditions". But we only have allowed headings list; we can use "Requirements" or "Qualifications". However Environmental Factors is not exactly qualifications. Could be under "Responsibilities"? Not exactly. Might be better to treat as "Requirements" (physical requirements). But we have also Minimum Qualifications and Special Requirements sections. Those are qualifications. So we can have a "Qualifications" section that includes Minimum Qualifications, Special Requirements, CDL Application Requirements. Or we could split into "Minimum Qualifications" and "Special Requirements" as subheadings? But only h3 allowed; we could have multiple h3 sections: e.g.,
Qualifications
then list items. Or we could haveMinimum Qualifications
andSpecial Requirements
. The instruction says use h3 for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but suggests those examples. Safer to stick to those examples. So we need to map content to those headings. We have overview description: could be "About the role". That fits. We have duties: repairing guardrails, patching pavement, ditching, clearing brush, picking up litter, plowing and salting during winter weather events, overtime may be required. That's responsibilities. So we can haveResponsibilities
with a- .
We have Who May Apply: open to all State employees and external applicants, temporary position, variable hours, not guaranteed 40 hrs/week, contact email. That's maybe "About the role" or "Overview". But we already used About the role for overview description. Could combine overview and who may apply into About the role. Or we could have a short p for contact email.
Environmental Factors: physical demands, exposure to weather, overtime, reachable by phone, use tools, lift materials, hazards, drug testing, etc. That could be under "Requirements" (physical requirements) or "Skills". But we have Minimum Qualifications and Special Requirements sections which are qualifications. So we could have a "Requirements" section for environmental/physical demands, and a "Qualifications" section for minimum qualifications etc.
Minimum Qualifications: 1 year work experience in construction, equipment operation, or related manual labor INCLUDING EITHER one season of operating a snowplow with wings OR six months of operating medium or heavy equipment, etc. OR Upon successful completion of original probation as a Transportation Operations Technician I AND possession of a Class A CDL with tanker endorsement. That's qualifications.
Special Requirements: Class B CDL required, must live within reasonable proximity, possession of Class A CDL with Tanker Endorsement required within first six months, must complete VTTC required coursework within one year or be enrolled. That's also qualifications.
CDL Application Requirements: need to provide employment info for past 10 years for CMV operators. That's also qualifications/application requirement.

Qualifications
with subpoints maybe using- with nested details.
We must not invent or summarize away detail. Must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include each bullet point exactly as given, but we can format as list items.
We must not include boilerplate EEO. So drop that.
We must not include application instructions like "Resumes will not be accepted via e-mail. You must apply online to be considered." Also drop "Please note that multiple positions in the same work location may be filled from this job posting." That's maybe minor metadata but could be kept? It's not boilerplate but maybe minor. The instruction says remove duplicated lines, and application instructions. That line is not an application instruction but maybe minor. Could keep as short p.
We need to preserve contact email: jordan.quilliam@vermont.gov. Could be a short p.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
Thus final HTML:
