We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role (maybe "Job Overview"? but they said use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have: - Job Overview: description of role, opportunity, how you will make an impact (list of duties). That could be "About the role" and "Responsibilities". We need to decide. - Required Qualifications & Experience: list of qualifications. - Preferred Qualifications And Experience: could be "Qualifications" or "Preferred Qualifications". Might combine. - Compensation & Benefits: includes pay (weekly pay cycle with performance-based project completion bonuses) and benefits (401k, medical, etc). So we need Pay and Benefits sections. - About Us: could be omitted? Not required heading; but we could include as maybe "About the company"? Not in list. Probably we should not include because not in allowed headings. The instruction: use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says use those headings; but we can also include others? It says "use

Probably we should stick to those.

We could include it as a paragraph under About the role or as a separate section maybe "About the company". Since not in allowed headings, maybe we incorporate it into About the role section. Thus About the role section will contain: - Osman Construction Corporation is seeking a dependable and detail-oriented Administrative Assistant... (The Opportunity paragraph) - Osman Construction Corporation is a premier commercial general contractor based in Arlington Heights, IL.

      Schedule

      Full-time, onsite in Arlington Heights, IL.

      Check we didn't repeat job title. Good. We omitted mandatory licences & certifications (None Required) - that's minor metadata; we could fold into a short p or drop. Since it's "None Required", it's not substantive; we can drop. We omitted Project Scope: Commercial Construction - maybe we could include in About the role? Not necessary but could be included as a sentence. However we already have description; we could add a sentence: "The role supports commercial construction projects." But we must not invent. The posting includes Project Scope: Commercial Construction. That's substantive. We could add a line in About the role: "This role supports commercial construction projects." But that's essentially restating. Might be okay to add as a short sentence. However we must not invent; we can include that as a short p: "The position supports commercial construction projects." That's directly from the posting. Let's add a paragraph after the opportunity paragraph. Thus About the role will have three paragraphs: opportunity, company description, project scope. Let's adjust. Now ensure we didn't include any boilerplate like EEO.
