We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings using

for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences. We need to parse the posting. Content: - Who We Are: description of DEAN Camps, mission, values, vision, locations, all-inclusive programs. This is "About the role"? Actually "Who We Are" is about the organization. Could be "About the role"? The instructions say use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to map content to these headings. We have: - What Makes You a Great Fit: describes ideal candidate, experience, leadership & team experience, organized/detail-oriented, adaptability, high energy, strong communication, aptitude for outdoor recreation, excited to learn & lead activities. This could be "Requirements" or "Qualifications" or "Skills". Probably "Requirements" and "Qualifications". We need to decide. - What You’ll Do: responsibilities list. - Schedule and Requirements: schedule details: full-time, on-site seasonal June 14 – Aug 20; leadership hours 7am-6pm; commute address; immunizations; lift 50 lbs; First Aid & CPR certification. This includes schedule and requirements. - Perks and Benefits: Pay range: $1,050-1,150 per week; FLSA Status; Paid training; background checks reimbursed; Referral Bonus; Daily perks; Employee discounts; Career growth. We need to include sections only if there is real specific content. So we can have sections: About the role (maybe from Who We Are), Responsibilities (What You’ll Do), Requirements (What Makes You a Great Fit + Schedule and Requirements?), Qualifications (maybe overlapping), Skills (maybe from What Makes You a Great Fit), Benefits (Perks and Benefits), Pay (Pay range), Schedule (Schedule and Requirements). However we must avoid thin sections. Perhaps combine. We need to use

    for each section heading. Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

      for prose. We must not repeat job title as heading. The job title is "PA Assistant Site Director Operation, Logistics, Behavioral Support". Not to be used as heading. We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers. We must remove EEO statement etc. We need to preserve all substantive information.

We need to output HTML fragment with sections. We need to decide which headings to use. Potential sections: - About the role (maybe from Who We Are) - Responsibilities (What You’ll Do) - Requirements (What Makes You a Great Fit + Schedule and Requirements? Could split into Requirements and Qualifications) - Qualifications (maybe overlapping) - Skills (maybe from What Makes You a Great Fit) - Benefits (Perks and Benefits) - Pay (Pay range) - Schedule (Schedule and Requirements) But we must avoid thin sections. For example, Pay section only has pay range; that's specific content, okay. Schedule section has schedule details; okay. Benefits section has many items; okay. We could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section "Requirements" that includes both experience and qualifications. Or we could have "Requirements" for mandatory items (experience, certifications, physical ability) and "Qualifications" for preferred attributes. But the instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we have: - About the role (Who We Are) - Responsibilities (What You’ll Do) - Requirements (What Makes You a Great Fit + Schedule and Requirements) - Benefits (Perks and Benefits) - Pay (Pay range) - Schedule (Schedule and Requirements) but that duplicates schedule content; maybe we incorporate schedule into Requirements? But schedule is separate heading allowed. However we already have schedule content in Requirements; we could still have a Schedule section with schedule details, but that would duplicate content if we also put schedule in Requirements. Better to keep schedule separate and not duplicate. So we need to allocate schedule content to Schedule section, and requirements content to Requirements section (experience, certifications, etc). Benefits separate. Pay separate. Thus: - About the role: Who We Are paragraph(s). - Responsibilities: What You’ll Do (including intro paragraph and bullet list). - Requirements: What Makes You a Great Fit (leadership experience, etc) plus maybe the physical/immunization/First Aid etc? Actually those are in Schedule and Requirements section; but we could move them to Requirements. However the Schedule and Requirements section also includes schedule details; we will move schedule to Schedule section. So Requirements will include the bullet points from What Makes You a Great Fit plus the immunization, lift, First Aid, commute? The commute is location requirement; could be in Requirements. But we might keep commute in Schedule? It's location; maybe better in Requirements. But we need to avoid duplication. Let's decide: Schedule section: schedule details (dates, hours, rotating schedule). Possibly also location? The location is ability to commute to address; could be in Requirements as a requirement. But we can keep it in Requirements. Thus: Schedule: full-time, on-site seasonal June 14 – Aug 20; leadership hours 7am-6pm; rotating schedules among director team to prevent burnout. Requirements: includes: - Leadership &
