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. We must include only sections that have real specific content. The posting includes: Position Overview (maybe About the role). Core Responsibilities & Key Activities (Responsibilities). Qualifications (Qualifications). Preferred Qualifications (maybe Skills? but we can treat as Qualifications). There's also CUNY Title Overview (maybe not needed). Compensation And Benefits includes salary range and benefits description. So we can have Pay section with salary range, Benefits section with benefits description. There's no Schedule explicit. So we omit Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not include Job ID etc. We must remove boilerplate like EEO, application instructions, closing date, etc. Also remove navigation, cookie, legal. Keep substantive info: About John Jay College description? That's about the college, maybe part of About the role? Could be included as About the role? The instruction: "Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we can have About the role (maybe includes position overview and college description). Responsibilities (core responsibilities). Qualifications (required and preferred). Skills (maybe we can extract from qualifications: proficiency in CRM, Microsoft Office, etc). Benefits (benefits description). Pay (salary range). We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience" - but we have salary range specific, so Pay section is okay. Benefits: we have description of benefits, not vague. So include. We must not include placeholders like "not specified". Ensure we only include real content. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include details from the posting. Let's extract: About John Jay College: description of college, mission, stats, etc. This is substantive. Position Overview: description of role purpose. We can combine into About the role: includes position overview and maybe college description. Responsibilities: list of core responsibilities with bullet points. We need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Qualifications: Bachelor's degree and four years' related experience required. Preferred qualifications list. Skills: maybe we can extract proficiency items: using social media platforms, webinar tools such as Zoom and Webex, CRM and other databases, intermediate to advanced proficiency in Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, and Excel, basic computer skills, proficiency in workflow management and resource sharing, bridge-building skills. We could put those under Skills. Benefits: description: CUNY's benefits contribute significantly to total compensation, supporting health and wellness, financial well-being, and professional development. We offer a range of health plans, competitive retirement/pension benefits and savings plans, tuition waivers for CUNY graduate study and generous paid time off. Our staff also benefits from the extensive academic, arts, and athletic programs on our campuses and the opportunity to participate in a lively, diverse academic community in one of the greatest cities in the world. Pay: Salary range $102,460 - $112,841. Salary commensurate with education and experience. (We can include the range; the phrase "commensurate with education and experience" is somewhat generic but we have actual numbers, so we can include that phrase as part of Pay section? The instruction: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") - but that's only if the section only contains filler. Since we have actual numbers, we can include the phrase as additional info. It's okay. We must not include application instructions, closing date, EEO, etc. We must not include Job ID etc. We must not include CUNY Title Overview? That's substantive but maybe not needed; but we could incorporate into About the role? It's about the title overview; but we can skip if not needed. The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should include that info as well. Where to put? Could be under About the role or Responsibilities? It's about the CUNY title overview: duties like supervising internships, orientation sessions, etc. That seems like responsibilities. But we already have responsibilities list; we could add those as additional bullet points under Responsibilities. However the CUNY Title Overview seems like a generic description of the title; but it's still substantive. We'll include it as part of Responsibilities. Let's parse CUNY Title Overview: "Supports an academic internship program providing career development and professional work experience. Acts as liaison between the College and employer sponsors, monitoring the success of students' internship experiences Supervises student internships, assuring adherence to related College and governmental policies and regulations Creates and conducts orientation sessions and workshops for students in the internship program; coordinates applications, interviews, and placement as part of overall student outreach Provides faculty orientation and development related to internship programs Implements and evaluates competencies and other success factors Performs related duties as assigned." We can add these as bullet points under Responsibilities. Now we need to ensure we don't duplicate content. The Core Responsibilities already list many items; we can combine. Let's structure:

    About the role

    John Jay College of Criminal Justice ... (description).

    Position Overview: The Science Industry Employment Specialist (Industry Specialist or IS) is a full-time CUNY Inclusive Economy initiative (CIE) staff (HE Associate) embedded in the Department of Sciences at John Jay who focus on sourcing, building and managing employer relationships for the benefit of science students. ... (purpose).

    Maybe we split into two paragraphs.

    Responsibilities

    • Employer Relationship Sourcing: Proactively identify, outreach, and engage employers in the sector (e.g., companies, nonprofits, government agencies) that align with the academic field of the department. Use strategies like cold outreach, leveraging alumni/faculty networks, LinkedIn Navigator (licenses provided by CIE), and working through CIE’s Industry Support Hub to connect with industry partners and “pitch” the value of partnering with your department and students. Build a “pitch kit” with materials (like value propositions, slide decks, email templates) to articulate the benefits of recruiting from your department’s student talent pool.
    • Developing Opportunities: Work with employers to source career opportunities (internships, part-time roles, full-time job openings, guest speaking engagements, etc.) for the student cohort, ensuring these opportunities meet CIE standards. Provide feedback and coordinate with the employers to facilitate interviews, recruitment events, etc.
    • Industry Engagement Programming: Plan and execute employer-related events for the cohort – for example, industry meet-and-greets, site visits, career panels, or in-class guest lectures by industry professionals. Also, coordinate with campus career centers and other career-focused staff to maximize efforts and leverage resources.
    • Cohort Engagement & Student Referrals: Collaborate with the Integrated Advisor to understand students’ career interests and preparedness levels. Match students to opportunities. Support student readiness by hosting sessions in collaboration with the IA or other campus stakeholders on topics like resume tailoring for specific employers, or by providing labor market insights that help students understand the industry context.
    • Partner Management, Data, and Reporting: Document all employer interactions and opportunities in the Dynamics CRM. The CRM is a workspace tool and how we capture all KPI-related data for the Industry Specialist. It should be used daily to prospect leads, execute intake calls, outreach and check in with partners, log opportunities that were executed with industry partners, etc. Also report data to the Department of Sciences and Dean of Research at John Jay in a format useful to the College.
    • Training & Best Practices: Participate in CIE central trainings. Implement best practices collaboration across the campus, initiative, and university system. Contribute to the community of practice by sharing challenges and solutions.
    • Supports an academic internship program providing career development and professional work experience. Acts as liaison between the College and employer sponsors, monitoring the success of students' internship experiences.
    • Supervises student internships, assuring adherence to related College and governmental policies and regulations.
    • Creates and conducts orientation sessions and workshops for students in the internship program; coordinates applications, interviews, and placement as part of overall student outreach.
    • Provides faculty orientation and development related to internship programs.
    • Implements and evaluates competencies and other success factors.
    • Performs related duties as assigned.

    Qualifications

    Bachelor's degree and four years' related experience required.

    Preferred Qualifications

    • Experience in career services or economic or workforce development
    • Experience with community and business outreach, ideally in implementing talent acquisition, outreach strategies, and business development especially in the science, technology, and health-related fields.
    • Understanding of business, recruitment and hiring practices in the field of science, healthcare or a closely related field, particularly relating to entry-level talent needs and paid internship and job opportunities.
    • Proficiency in using social media platforms, webinar tools such as Zoom and Webex, CRM and other databases for data collection.
    • Intermediate to advanced proficiency in Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, and Excel.
    • Basic computer skills and proficiency in program use to carry out tasks for office productivity and management, digital communications, file management and data entry. This includes (but is not limited to) Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Teams, Exchange), Zoom, Canva, etc.
    • Proficiency in workflow management and resource sharing to ensure cohesive experience between students, the CIE team, departmental programs, and college initiatives.
    • Proficiency in bridge-building skills to create and maintain a positive team-based collaborative environment.
    We could combine Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications into one Qualifications section, but the instruction allows sections like Qualifications, Skills. We could put required under Qualifications, preferred under Skills? But better to have Qualifications (required) and Skills (preferred). However the instruction says use headings like Qualifications, Skills. We could treat required as Qualifications, and preferred as Skills. But the preferred list includes experience and understanding, not just skills. Might be better to have Qualifications (required) and then another section maybe "Preferred Qualifications" but that's not in the allowed headings list. The allowed headings list includes Qualifications, Skills. So we could put required under Qualifications, and put preferred under Skills (though some are experience). That's okay. Alternatively we could have Qualifications (both required and preferred) and not have Skills. But we need to decide. The instruction: "Use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., not exhaustive. So we can also add other headings like "Preferred Qualifications" if we want, but better to stick to the given list to be safe. However they said "e.g." meaning examples, not strict. But to be safe, we can use Qualifications for required, and Skills for preferred (including proficiency items). However the preferred list includes experience items that are not strictly skills, but we can still put them under Skills; it's okay. Let's do:
