We need to output HTML fragment with sections only when there is real specific content. Use for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. Must preserve all substantive info.
We need to parse the job description.
Content:
- Intro paragraph about department: "At the Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity, we are passionate about creating a positive, professional, and supportive work environment where we value our differences and are committed to being open and respectful to all our employees and the public we serve. Our department provides the connections, expertise and innovative solutions to drive continued business growth, build vibrant communities, create affordable housing, generate tourism and attract and retain key talent to fill Michigan’s vast pipeline of opportunities. Learn more at www.michigan.gov/LEO ."
That's about the role? Could be "About the role" or "About the department". Use heading About the role.
- Then description of position: "This position provides a range of professional vocational rehabilitation guidance and counseling services to individuals with disabilities and consultation/training services to business customers. These services may include but are not limited to: vocational guidance and counseling, physical restoration, training, education, accommodation, retention, placement services, and inform community partners and general public of vocational rehabilitation services. The position also develops and maintains relationships with businesses within assigned geographic or program area. Exhibits knowledge labor market information and effective use of placement strategies. Utilizes resources which results in obtaining and maintaining customer employment while providing high quality services to businesses. The Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor relies on their clinical skills to incorporate and conceptualize the information gathered to determine customer’s eligibility for vocational rehabilitation services. This is done through the intake interview, vocational guidance and counseling and obtaining medical, psychological, or other necessary disability related documentation."
That's responsibilities.
- Then schedule info: "There is a possibility of a remote/hybrid schedule based on performance and operational need. However, all work must be performed in Michigan. If you currently reside outside of Michigan, you must relocate to Michigan to perform the duties of this position."
That's schedule (remote/hybrid possibility). So we can have Schedule heading.
- Then "Position Description Summary Employment and Training Careers page" maybe not needed? It's just a line; maybe ignore as boilerplate? It's not substantive? Might be considered metadata but not needed. We can drop.
- Then "Required Education And Experience" heading? We'll map to Requirements or Qualifications. The content: Education: Possession of a master’s degree with a major in counseling, rehabilitation counseling, guidance and counseling, special education, social work, psychology, occupational therapy, speech therapy, or physical therapy.
Experience: three levels: Rehabilitation Counselor 9 (No specific type or amount is required). Rehabilitation Counselor 10 (One year of professional experience providing rehabilitation counseling services equivalent to a Rehabilitation Counselor 9). Rehabilitation Counselor P11 (Two years of professional experience providing rehabilitation counseling services equivalent to a Rehabilitation Counselor, including one year equivalent to a Rehabilitation Counselor 10; or, three years of professional experience providing rehabilitation services coordination equivalent to a Rehabilitation Services Coordinator, including one year equivalent to a Rehabilitation Services Coordinator P11.)
We need to preserve all substantive info. So we need to list these experience requirements.
- Additional Requirements And Information: includes cover letter, resume, transcript requirements, foreign degree evaluation, etc. Also includes Civil Service Rule, drug test, background checks, E-Verify, application via NEOGOV, contact info, job spec link, accommodations.
We need to include these as maybe Requirements or Additional Information. Since we have headings limited to set list, we can put under Requirements (or Qualifications) the education and experience, and under Requirements also the additional requirements (documents, background checks). Could also have a separate section like "Qualifications" for education/experience, and "Requirements" for docs etc. But we must not create sections with filler. We need to decide.
We have allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We can use About the role (intro), Responsibilities (duties), Qualifications (education & experience), Requirements (additional docs, background checks, etc.), Schedule (remote/hybrid). Benefits, Pay not present -> omit. Skills not present -> omit.
We must not create empty sections.
Now we need to format lists with

We need to ensure we didn't repeat job title as heading. Good.
Check for any leftover boilerplate: we removed "Position Description Summary Employment and Training Careers page". Also removed "Learn more at www.michigan.gov/LEO ." we kept. Also removed "For more information regarding official transcripts, click here ." we omitted the link but we could keep as generic? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. The phrase "For more information regarding official transcripts, click here ." is a link; we could keep as part of the transcript requirement but we omitted the link. Might be considered substantive? It's a reference to more info; but we can keep as generic statement: "For more information regarding official transcripts, click here." However that's a link; we could keep as plain text without URL? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; we should not invent or summarize away detail. The link is not essential but it's part of the posting. Safer to keep the sentence as is, maybe without the actual URL but we can keep the phrase "For more information regarding official transcripts, click here." It's not a substantive detail but it's part of the posting. I'd keep it.
Similarly "Go to evaluators for a list of accepted organizations that evaluate foreign credentials." We omitted that. Should keep.
Also "View the job specification at: http://www.michigan.gov/documents/RehabilitiationCounselor_13092_7.pdf" we kept.
Also "Accommodations If you require a reasonable accommodation..." we kept as bullet.
We need to incorporate those missing bits.
Let's adjust the Requirements bullet list to include those specifics.
We'll create bullet items:
- Please attach a cover letter, detailed resume, and your official college transcript(s) to your application. For our purposes, "official college transcripts" must contain the college/university name and address, the degree conferred, date granted, coursework completed (especially if no degree granted), and the Registrar's signature and/or seal. A scanned or electronic copy is acceptable, if it contains the elements listed above. The college/university does not have to send the transcript directly to LEO. For more information regarding official transcripts, click here.
- Applicants who possess a degree from a foreign college or university must have their academic credentials evaluated or converted into U.S. educational equivalents unless the degree has been recognized by the Council on Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA). Go to evaluators for a list of accepted organizations that evaluate foreign credentials. Failure to provide this evaluation at the time of application may result in you being screened out of the process.
- Information provided in your application, resume, cover letter, transcripts, and any other documentation provided will be used to verify responses to the supplemental questions. Unsupported responses may not be considered further.
- All classified employees are subject to Civil Service Rule 2-8 Ethical Standards and Conduct and will be expected to disclose any personal and financial interests that may conflict with official duties as a classified employee.
