Management$27.8–$39.2/hrFull-time
We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes Introduction, Overview, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Other Skills We Hope to See, What AIT Can Offer You (benefits), About AIT Worldwide (company description). Also wage range. We must use

for section headings: e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. So we need sections: Overview (maybe treat as About the role?), Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills (Other Skills We Hope to See), Benefits, Pay (wage range). Schedule not present, so omit. We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". The wage range is given: $27.80-$39.20 and may vary based on geography as well as relative knowledge, skills, abilities, and experience. That's specific enough to include Pay section. We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include the content from each section. We need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For prose, use

    . We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. At end there is EEO statement and contact for disability; that's boilerplate, remove. Also remove "Introduction" maybe not needed as heading? The intro is fluff; but we need to preserve substantive info. The introduction is generic marketing; maybe we can omit as not specific to role? The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. The introduction is not substantive about the role; but it's part of posting. However we could treat it as part of About the role? The instruction says we should not emit heading followed by filler/placeholder text. The introduction is generic but not filler? It's marketing fluff. Might be considered not substantive. Safer to omit it? But we must preserve ALL substantive information; the intro is not substantive about the role, but it's still part of posting. However the instruction says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can omit the intro if it's not substantive. The overview is more substantive. Thus sections: About the role (maybe using Overview), Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay. We need to use

    for each section heading. Now content: Overview: "The Air Operations Agent II is responsible for coordinating the day-to-day air import and export of international freight forwarding shipments out of the USA of international transportation based upon customer requests." We can put that in

    . Responsibilities: list of duties. We need to convert each sentence into
