We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we need to use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content.
We need to parse the posting.
First, remove boilerplate: company description, etc. Keep substantive info: Job Summary, Key Responsibilities, Management Responsibilities? Actually there is "Management Responsibilities" but seems part of responsibilities. There's "Preferred Qualifications", "Minimum Qualifications", "Certifications", "Work Environment/Physical Demands", "Competencies", "Salary Plan", "Job Grade", benefits description, EEO etc.
We need to map to allowed headings: About the role (maybe job summary), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to decide what goes where.
- About the role: could be job summary and maybe company description? But we should not repeat job title. Use
About the role
thenwith job summary. - Responsibilities: list of duties from Key Responsibilities (the long bullet list). Use
- . - Requirements: maybe Minimum Qualifications? Or "Must have working knowledge of auto level and transit". Also "4 or more years of experience..." etc. Could be Requirements. - Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications and Certifications. - Skills: maybe Competencies? Or "Add, subtract, multiply and divide..." etc. Also "Use effective verbal and written communication skills". Could be Skills. - Benefits: benefits paragraph about health care, flexible work schedules, paid vacation, etc. Also mention ESOP ownership, 401k, tuition reimbursement, etc. - Pay: Salary Plan CEM: Cement Masonry Job Grade 200. Also maybe mention compensation range? There's a line: "In accordance with local law, the following compensation range is applicable for the job and location associated with this requisition: - Nearest Major Market: San Antonio Job Segment: Electrical, Engineer, Construction, Engineering". No actual numbers. So we cannot include Pay if no specific numbers. The rule: never create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It states Salary Plan and Job Grade but not a numeric range. Is that enough? It says "Salary Plan CEM: Cement Masonry Job Grade 200". That's somewhat specific but not a pay range. Might be considered pay info. However the instruction: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state Salary Plan and Job Grade, which is pay-related. I'd include a Pay section with that info. - Schedule: maybe mention "Work up to a 12 hour shift doing hard physical labor". Also "Full-Time". So we can include Schedule section with that. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting that are substantive. Let's extract sections: Job Summary: "Spread, level, smooth and finish surfaces of poured concrete, such as floors, slabs, table tops, beams, panel, foundations, walkways, roads, and/or curbs using a variety of hand and power tools. Grout columns, patch voids; and use saws to cut expansion joints." Key Responsibilities: a long list with many repetitions. Need to capture all distinct responsibilities. The text includes repeated sentences. We should preserve all but avoid duplication? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." It doesn't say we must deduplicate, but we should not remove substantive info. Duplicated lines are to be removed: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should remove duplicated lines. The responsibilities list has duplicated sentences (the second paragraph repeats many). We need to deduplicate. Let's parse responsibilities: First bullet list after "Key Responsibilities .Use appropriate hand and power tools to place concrete into finished forms to specified textures; vibrate, level, smooth and shape surface of concrete; finish concrete surfaces to specifications; remove rough or defective spots from concrete surfaces using power grinder or chisel and hammer and patch holes with fresh concrete or epoxy compound; and install all other items in accordance with the applicable plans and specifications Mold expansion joints and edges, using edging tools, jointers, and strait edge Signal truck and or pump truck driver to facilitate pouring concrete, and move chute as needed over concrete forms and/or rebar Apply hardening and sealing compound to cure surface of concrete, and waterproof or restore surface Must have working knowledge of auto level and transit for accurate layout and verification of finished grade and placement measure, cut, assemble and install forms, rebar, embeds and anchor bolts; construct built-in-place or prefabricated wooden forms, according to specifications for molding concrete structures; erect built-in-place forms or assemble and install prefabricated forms; insert spreaders and tie-rods between opposite pieces to maintain specific dimensions; anchor and brace forms to fixed objects using nails, bolts, anchor rods, steel cables, planks and timber; build wooden structures such as scaffold supports and frame shelters according to specifications and project specifications; pour concrete into finished forms to specified textures; vibrate, level, smooth and shape surface of concrete; finish concrete surfaces to specifications; remove rough or defective spots from concrete surfaces using power grinder or chisel and hammer and patch holes with fresh concrete or epoxy compound; and install all other items in accordance with the applicable plans and specifications .

Pay: Salary Plan CEM: Cement Masonry Job Grade 200. Also mention compensation range? Not given numbers. So we just include Salary Plan and Job Grade. Schedule: "Work up to a 12 hour shift doing hard physical labor in varying temperature extremes and other outside conditions." Also "Full-Time". Also maybe "Work Environment: Typical construction site environment." But schedule is about hours/shift.
