We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We need to parse the job posting. Given content: Position Title: Teacher, Middle School Core Department: Instructional Services Reports To: Principal FLSA Status: Exempt Qualifications: Bachelor's degree in related area of discipline with previous student teaching experience; or equivalent combination of training and experience which provides the required knowledge, skills and abilities Certificates, Licenses, Registrations: Valid SC Teaching License (any applicable area) Must have current government issued identification Terms Of Employment: 8 Hours/190 Days Certified Salary Scale The terms of employment detailed in this job description are based on full time employment during the school year. Conditions of employment adjusted for part time employees or individuals who are hired for less than an entire school year. General Summary: Under general supervision, instructs students in one or more middle level core subjects such as English, Math, Science and Social Studies. Assists in other school programs as assigned. Essential Functions: (list of many bullet-like sentences) Supervisory Responsibility: Responsible for supervision of students in classrooms, field studies and other instructional settings. Responsible for classroom materials and supplies budget (if applicable). Responsible for maintenance and inventory of equipment; responsible for reporting equipment malfunctions and safety issues. OTHER SKILLS And ABILITIES: (list of abilities) Physical Demands: (description) Work Environment: (description) Evaluation: Performance of this job is evaluated annually according to Board Policy. Disclaimer Statement: (legal) Nondiscrimination Policy: (legal) We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we should remove Disclaimer Statement, Nondiscrimination Policy, maybe Evaluation? Evaluation is not boilerplate but maybe we can keep if it's substantive. It says "Performance of this job is evaluated annually according to Board Policy." That's somewhat generic but still specific. Might keep as a short paragraph under maybe "Evaluation". However guidelines: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We could combine Evaluation into Responsibilities or General Summary? Probably better to keep as a separate short section if it's substantive. But it's a single sentence; maybe we can incorporate into Responsibilities. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. Pay and Schedule: The posting mentions "8 Hours/190 Days Certified Salary Scale" under Terms Of Employment. That gives schedule (8 hours, 190 days) and mentions salary scale but not actual pay numbers. So we have schedule info (8 Hours/190 Days). Pay: not specific numbers, just "Certified Salary Scale". That's vague; we should not create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It says "Certified Salary Scale" but no numbers. According to rule: 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. For Schedule, we have "8 Hours/190 Days" which is specific. So we can include Schedule section with that info. For Pay, we have only "Certified Salary Scale" which is not a specific number; it's vague. Likely we should not create Pay section. Benefits: not mentioned. So omit. Qualifications: we have Bachelor's degree etc. Also Certificates, Licenses, Registrations. Could combine into Qualifications section. Responsibilities: we have General Summary and Essential Functions and Supervisory Responsibility. Could combine into Responsibilities. Skills: OTHER SKILLS And ABILITIES list. Physical Demands and Work Environment could be combined into Working Conditions or maybe separate sections? Not in allowed headings list; allowed headings are About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to map content to these headings. About the role: could be General Summary. Responsibilities: Essential Functions + Supervisory Responsibility. Requirements: maybe Qualifications + Certificates? But Qualifications is separate allowed heading. Actually we have both Qualifications and Requirements as allowed headings. We need to decide what goes where. Typically Qualifications: education, certifications. Requirements: maybe skills, abilities, physical demands? But we also have Skills heading. Let's follow typical: Qualifications: education, certifications, experience. Requirements: maybe other requirements like transportation, computer literacy, etc. Skills: abilities list. But we must not create thin sections. Let's see what we have: - Qualifications: Bachelor's degree in related area of discipline with previous student teaching experience; or equivalent combination of training and experience which provides the required knowledge, skills and abilities. Certificates, Licenses, Registrations: Valid SC Teaching License (any applicable area) Must have current government issued identification. That's substantive. - Requirements: maybe "Must have reliable transportation", "Personal computer experience required", "Strong knowledge of word processing, e-mail, spreadsheets, electronic file management, the internet, and reporting and presentation software." etc. Those are more like skills/abilities. - Skills: OTHER SKILLS And ABILITIES list (many abilities). We could combine Requirements and Skills into one Skills section, but we have both headings allowed. To avoid many thin sections, we could merge Requirements into Skills or Qualifications. But we need to follow instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we have sections: About the role (General Summary), Responsibilities (Essential Functions + Supervisory), Qualifications (education + certifications), Skills (abilities + computer literacy + transportation etc), Schedule (8 Hours/190 Days). That's five sections. We should not include Requirements separately if we merge into Skills. Check if any content duplicated: The Essential Functions list includes many items; we should preserve all substantive information, not summarizing away detail. We need to output as
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we need to turn the Essential Functions sentences into list items. Similarly Supervisory Responsibility sentences into list items. Skills list into list items. We must not repeat the job title as a heading. The page already shows it, so we don't add

    for Teacher, Middle School Core. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; none present. We must remove boilerplate: Disclaimer Statement, Nondiscrimination Policy, maybe Evaluation? Evaluation is not boilerplate but it's a single sentence; we could incorporate into Responsibilities or About the role? It's about evaluation; maybe we can keep as a short paragraph under Responsibilities? But it's not a duty. Could be omitted as it's generic. I'd say we can omit Evaluation as it's not essential to the role description; it's more administrative. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Evaluation is not those, but it's still somewhat generic. However we can keep if we want. But to keep sections few, maybe we omit. Physical Demands and Work Environment: not in allowed headings; we could incorporate into Skills or Responsibilities? They are not duties but working conditions. Could be omitted? But they are substantive. However we have no heading for them; we could put them under Skills? Not ideal. Perhaps we can create a section "Requirements" for physical demands and work environment. But the instruction says we can use headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can use Requirements for physical demands and work environment plus maybe other requirements like transportation, computer literacy. That would make Requirements substantive. Thus we can have: - About the role: General Summary (paragraph) - Responsibilities: Essential Functions + Supervisory Responsibility (list) - Requirements: Physical Demands + Work Environment + Transportation + Computer literacy + etc? Actually computer literacy and transportation are more skills/abilities. But we can still put them under Requirements as they are requirements. However we also have Skills heading for abilities list. To avoid thin sections, we could combine all ability-like items into Skills, and put physical demands and work environment under Requirements. That seems reasonable. Thus: Requirements: Physical Demands description, Work Environment description, Must have reliable transportation, Personal computer experience required, Strong knowledge of word processing, e-mail, spreadsheets, electronic file management, the internet, and reporting and presentation software. Also maybe "Ability to access reliable transportation" is already there. Skills: OTHER SKILLS And ABILITIES list (the many abilities). Also maybe "Ability to establish and maintain effective working relationships..." etc. But note that the OTHER SKILLS And ABILITIES list includes many items that overlap with the skills we might put under Requirements. To avoid duplication, we need to parse the original text and decide what goes where. Let's extract the exact sections from the posting: After "OTHER SKILLS And ABILITIES" we have: Ability to perform duties with awareness of all district requirements and Lexington County School District One Board policies. Must be able to access reliable transportation. Personal computer experience required. Strong knowledge of word processing, e-mail, spreadsheets, electronic file management, the internet, and reporting and presentation software. Ability to establish and maintain effective working relationships with students, staff and the school community. Ability to speak clearly and concisely both in oral and written communication. Ability to apply knowledge and current research and theory. Ability to organize and implement a flexible work schedule in order to meet reporting deadlines. Ability to self-monitor and manage multiple tasks while working individually and with members of a group. Ability to submit all requested reports and documentation in a timely manner and in accordance with scheduled deadlines. Some extended hours and multiple demands from several people are frequently required of the employee. Computer literacy required. Knowledge of the policies, procedures, and activities of the school district that pertain to the specific duties and responsibilities of the position. Knowledge of school policies, procedures, and operations. Ability to demonstrate proper maintenance, safe operation, and utilization of equipment, materials, and supplies used in daily activities. Ability to maintain high standards of accuracy in exercising duties. Ability to anticipate work to be completed and to complete work without the need for direct supervision. Ability to maintain confidentiality of employee and student records and information. Ability to interact and communicate effectively and professionally with supervisors, co-workers, teachers, students, and the general public. That's a long list. Then Physical Demands section: The physical demands described here are representative of those that must be met by an employee to successfully perform the essential functions of this job. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions. Physical demands are restricted to classroom work requiring occasional lifting/moving of items up to twenty-five pounds. The employee will sometimes push/pull items such as furniture or boxes of materials. While performing the duties of this job, the employee is regularly required to sit, stand, walk, talk, listen and/or reach with hands and arms. Specific vision abilities required by this job include close vision, distance vision. Occasionally the position requires the employee to work irregular or extended hours. Duties of the job require frequent use of a computer monitor and related equipment.

Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions. The noise level in the work environment for this position varies. The noise level in this environment is quiet to loud depending upon the activity in the particular part of the day. Conducts duties in a classroom environment and on field studies with no significant exposure to adverse environmental conditions. Requires constant attention working with students. Occasional travel is required; limited overnight travel required. Thus we have physical demands and work environment. Now, we also have "Terms Of Employment 8 Hours/190 Days Certified Salary Scale". That's schedule. Now, we need to decide sections
