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 that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Remove boilerplate, navigation, EEO, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. Must preserve all substantive info. Let's parse the posting. Content: - Opening: "Join our team! What We Offer At Palm Beach State College, you will discover a place where ideas come to life and the heartbeat of a county begins. By joining us, you will be exposed to professionals from across the U.S. and abroad who are the strivers, reinventors, explorers, and influencers dedicated to developing talent that fills the most needed workforce roles. As the Panthers, we embrace a community of belonging, caring, and connection for our students and employees. We seek creative individuals to help PBSC fulfill its mission of inspiring hope, advancing skills, and transforming lives." That's like an "About the role" or "What We Offer". Could be a section "About the role" or "What We Offer". The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can use "About the role" heading. - "About This Role Instruct college students in accordance with educational theories and techniques. Develops discipline related curricula, assess student learning, participates in program evaluation, and college activities. Maintains college and department standards in support of the College's mission and strategic plan. Work schedule varies according to teaching assignment. Work schedule varies according to teaching assignment. Varies" We have duplicated line "Work schedule varies according to teaching assignment." appears twice. Also "Varies". We need to preserve substantive info but remove duplication. So we can combine. - "What An Adjunct Instructor’s Day Looks Like Develops, maintains, interprets, and executes administrative procedures and practices. This activity includes developing and maintaining manuals regarding the College's policies, procedures, rules, and standards. Analyzes class and program needs of the College. Determines and recommends the retention or deletion of courses. Develops and coordinates program and course schedules, faculty assignments, and test dates. Maintains calendar as necessary to track these schedules and adjusts as required. Assist students and program curriculum, program and course reviews, and articulation activities." That's responsibilities. - "We’d love to hear from you if you have the following: Education And Experience Master's degree in Music or Master's degree in any field with 18 graduate semester hours in Music. Knowledge Of Microsoft Office Professional or similar applications Utilize Canvas Learning Management System and other instructional technologies Ability To Interact positively with diverse populations and varying education levels of students, faculty, staff, and the public." That's qualifications/requirements. - "Work Environment And Physical Demand Reach and grasp objects Stoop, bend, kneel, crouch, or crawl Use of video display terminal Use of manual dexterity and fine motor skills Communicate information orally and in writing Receive and understand information through oral and written communication Proofread and check documents for accuracy" That's maybe "Work Environment" but not in list of allowed headings. Could be part of "Requirements" or "Qualifications". Since not in allowed list, we might embed within a paragraph. - "This job description is intended to be generic in nature and describe the job's essential functions. It is not an exhaustive list of all duties and responsibilities. The essential duties, functions, and responsibilities, and overtime eligibility may vary based on the specific tasks assigned to the position." This is generic boilerplate; we should remove? It's not cookie/navigation/legal/EEO but it's generic description. Might be considered boilerplate? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. This is not exactly those categories, but it's generic filler. Might be considered boilerplate? It says "This job description is intended to be generic..." It's not substantive specific info. Probably we should remove as it's not adding value. However we need to preserve ALL substantive information; this is not substantive. So we can drop. - "Pay Rates Standard hourly rates vary based on the assigned course level and educational credentials. Must have the ability to work a fluctuating schedule to include evenings and weekends." That's Pay and Schedule info. So we need a Pay section and Schedule section? The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. But we have both Pay and Schedule info. Could combine into a "Pay and Schedule" section? But headings list includes Pay and Schedule separate. We could make separate sections if they have content. Pay: "Standard hourly rates vary based on the assigned course level and educational credentials." That's specific? It's vague but it's actual info. Schedule: "Must have the ability to work a fluctuating schedule to include evenings and weekends." That's schedule info. So we can have both. - "Applications without attached copies of official transcripts or non-web based unofficial transcripts will not be considered. Transcripts for Adjunct positions must either be an official copy or a college-stamped student copy or a non-web based unofficial transcript, scanned into an electronic format and attached to their application. Transcripts produced through web-based student systems will not be accepted Degrees earned in the United States must be conferred by an accredited institution of higher education recognized by the United States Department of Education or the Council for Higher Education Accreditation. To view a listing of the accredited organizations, please visit the Council for Higher Education Accreditation Degrees earned outside the United States must be validated by an organization belonging to the National Association of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES). An evaluation report from an accrediting organization must be attached prior to the application closing date of each position. To view a listing of the current members of (NACES), please visit https://www.naces.org/members." This is application instructions / transcript requirements. According to instruction: Remove application instructions. So we should drop this entire block. - "Important Information This posting represents an open continuous applicant pool. Submission of an application does not guarantee an interview or employment. Adjunct positions are filled on an as-needed basis according to departmental and instructional needs. READY TO APPLY? Here's your application preparation! Please review the following information to apply for a position at Palm Beach State College: Carefully review the minimum qualifications advertised for the available position, as only applicants meeting the minimum requirements will be considered. Background Check/ Drug Screen may be required based on the specific requirements of the position for which the application is being submitted. Employment is contingent upon passing a drug test and completing a criminal background investigation. An essential goal of the Office of Human Resources is to respond to all applicants once a selection is made. Please take notice of the position closing date advertised. Whenever positions are filled, the Office of Human Resources responds to all applicants who have submitted applications. The College conducts its employment activity within the State of Florida except for occasional brief and temporary pre-approved periods related to college travel. Application Deadline This position is open until filled" This is also application instructions / boilerplate. Should be removed. Thus final substantive content: - Intro paragraph about PBSC (What We Offer) - About This Role (duties) - What An Adjunct Instructor’s Day Looks Like (more duties) - Education And Experience, Knowledge, Ability (requirements/qualifications) - Work Environment And Physical Demand (maybe as part of requirements) - Pay Rates (pay) - Must have ability to work fluctuating schedule (schedule) We need to structure with headings. We could have sections:

About the role

(intro paragraph)

Responsibilities

(combine About This Role and What An Adjunct Instructor’s Day Looks Like)

Qualifications

(Education And Experience, Knowledge, Ability)

Work Environment

(maybe not allowed but we could incorporate into Qualifications or Responsibilities). Since allowed headings list does not include Work Environment, we could omit heading and just put as

under Qualifications or Responsibilities. But we need to preserve info. Could add a

Work Environment

but not in list; instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but says use those for section headings (e.g...). Likely they expect only those headings. Safer to stick to those. So we can incorporate work environment details into Qualifications or Responsibilities as a paragraph. Pay and Schedule sections. Thus final HTML:

Pay

Standard hourly rates vary based on the assigned course level and educational credentials.

Schedule

Must have the ability to work a fluctuating schedule that may include evenings and weekends.

Check for duplication: we removed duplicate "Work schedule varies according to teaching assignment." Not needed because schedule covered. Check that we didn't include any boilerplate like "This job description is intended to be generic..." etc. Good. Check that we didn't include application instructions. Good. Check that we preserved all substantive info: Intro, responsibilities (including all bullet points), qualifications (education, knowledge, ability, work environment), pay, schedule. Did we miss "Work schedule varies according to teaching assignment. Varies" from About This Role? We omitted because it's covered by schedule section. But we might lose the nuance that schedule varies according to teaching assignment. However schedule section says must have ability to work fluctuating schedule that may include evenings and weekends. That captures ability but not that it varies per assignment. Could add a line: "Work schedule varies according to teaching assignment." Could be included in schedule paragraph. Let's incorporate. Thus schedule paragraph
