We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes "About Simmons" description. We need to use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should include only sections that have real content.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, duplicated lines, application instructions. Keep substantive info.
We need to parse the posting.
Key content:
- About Simmons: description of university, mission, etc. Could be "About the role"? Actually "About Simmons" is about the institution. The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should map content accordingly.
We have:
- About Simmons: description of university, mission, values, etc. Could go under "About the role"? Might be better as "About the role" but that is about the job. However we have no explicit "About the role" section; we could treat the Simmons description as "About the role" (the role at Simmons). Or we could omit that heading if not appropriate? The instruction says use those headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't say we must use all; we include only when posting has real content. The posting includes a description of Simmons (the institution). That could be considered "About the role" (the role at Simmons). We'll include an

That could be considered "About the role" (the role at Simmons). We'll include an About the role
with that description.
- Responsibilities: includes Teaching Responsibilities, Faculty's Responsibilities Also Include, Service Responsibilities, Professional Engagement Responsibilities. So we can combine under Responsibilities.
- Requirements: maybe qualifications/skills? The posting has Qualifications/Skills section. That includes Master's degree required, Doctoral preferred, years experience, RN license, etc. Also includes "Demonstrated ability to work with students across a broad range..." etc. Those are qualifications/skills. We could split into Requirements (minimum) and Qualifications/Skills (preferred). But instruction says we can have Qualifications and Skills separate headings. We'll use both.
- Benefits: posting mentions "This is a benefits-eligible position." and mentions health benefits, retirement savings, flexible hours, remote work opportunities. So we have benefits content.
- Pay: Salary Range: $77,505 to $98,068. Also mention compensation philosophy. So we include Pay.
- Schedule: It's a full-time, 10-month contract faculty position. So schedule: full-time, 10-month contract. We'll include Schedule.
We must not include placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We must not include application instructions, EEO boilerplate, duplicated lines. Remove navigation, cookie, legal, etc. Also remove repeated Simmons description at end (the last paragraph). We'll keep only one instance.
We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract.
About Simmons (About the role):
"Located in Boston's historic Fenway area, Simmons University has a strong tradition of empowering women and challenging traditional gender roles. Simmons was founded for equality 125 years ago as one of the first higher education institutions dedicated to helping women become leaders. Today, our university continues to grow and evolve and now offers Boston's only women's undergraduate program and graduate programs open to all. You're joining our community at an especially exciting time as we continue to innovate for the future. Simmons recently launched a six-school academic structure that leverages our expert faculty and longstanding expertise in professions that make our communities stronger. In addition, we continue to highlight our high-value education proposition that is delivering greater ROI to students and putting them on the fast track to career growth and success. You'll find that people who work here truly believe in our mission of preparing students to become social justice-oriented leaders who excel in their professions and their communities. This commitment and pride make for a dynamic workplace. As a university that values diversity, equity, and inclusion, Simmons encourages applications from all under-represented groups. Simmons is committed to creating, developing, promoting, and enhancing inclusive hiring practices-at all levels, for all positions-ensuring diverse talent pools and the delivery of a consistent positive candidate experience. Simmons is an equal opportunity employer and is committed to continuing to develop a more diverse faculty, staff, student body, and curriculum."
But note: The EEO lines may be considered boilerplate. The instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. So we should remove lines about equal opportunity employer, encouraging applications from under-represented groups, inclusive hiring practices, etc. However those are part of the Simmons description; but they are EEO boilerplate. We need to remove them. However we must preserve substantive information; the EEO lines are not substantive about the role. So we can strip them.
Thus About Simmons should retain the mission, history, etc but not the EEO lines.
Let's craft About Simmons paragraph:
"Located in Boston's historic Fenway area, Simmons University has a strong tradition of empowering women and challenging traditional gender roles.

Now Responsibilities: combine teaching, faculty responsibilities, service, professional engagement.
Teaching Responsibilities:
- Teaching is a primary responsibility. Annual seven-course teaching load standard for contract faculty.
- Role involves teaching courses in the pre-licensure nursing program.
- Potential courses include, but are not limited to: Psychiatric & Mental Health Nursing, Fundamentals of Nursing, Purpose, Leadership and Action (PLAN) course(s), as applicable.
Faculty's Responsibilities Also Include:
- Demonstrating commitment to continuous improvement in teaching skills, pedagogy, and attention to inclusion and belonging in the classroom.
- Providing support, through office hours and other means, to ensure every student is involved in a positive educational experience through learning, teaching, and intellectual engagement.
- Eliciting, supporting, and implementing curricula to ensure course and program objectives are achieved.
- Evaluating student achievement of expected student learning outcomes.
Service Responsibilities:

Professional Engagement Responsibilities:

- Maintaining involvement in the broader academic and professional community in accordance with disciplinary/professional standards.
We'll combine into a single Responsibilities section with - items.
Requirements: maybe minimal qualifications? The posting has Qualifications/Skills section that includes both required and preferred. We could split: Requirements: Master's degree in nursing required; At least 5 years of relevant nursing experience required for Assistant Professor rank; at least 10 years for Associate Professor rank; Must hold and maintain a current and unrestricted Registered Nurse License in Massachusetts. Also maybe "Previous teaching at the college level is preferable" is a qualification/skill.
Qualifications: Doctoral degree in nursing preferred; Demonstrated commitment to clinical and academic excellence; Creative problem solver; Strong and effective communicator; Demonstrated ability to work with students across a broad range of social and personal identities and perspectives.
Skills: maybe same as qualifications? But we can treat Qualifications as preferred education/experience, Skills as abilities.
But instruction says we can have Qualifications and Skills separate headings. We'll do:
- Qualifications: Master's degree in nursing required; Doctoral degree in nursing preferred; At least 5 years of relevant nursing experience required for Assistant Professor rank; at least 10 years for Associate Professor rank; Must hold and maintain a current and unrestricted Registered Nurse License in Massachusetts.
- Skills: Demonstrated commitment to clinical and academic excellence; Previous teaching at the college level is preferable; Creative problem solver; Strong and effective communicator; Demonstrated ability to work with students across a broad range of social and personal identities and perspectives.
We need to ensure we don't duplicate.
Benefits: "This is a benefits-eligible position. Actual compensation will be based on factors such as experience, education, skills, equity, and external market benchmarks that help guide compensation decisions. Our compensation philosophy is centered around a comprehensive package that includes pay, health benefits, and retirement savings offerings that can be seen here, as well as work-life balance initiatives such as flexible hours and remote work opportunities."
We should keep that.
Pay: Salary Range: $77,505 to $98,068. Also mention compensation philosophy maybe but we already have in benefits. We'll keep Pay section with salary range.
Schedule: "This is a full-time, 10-month, contract faculty position." Also maybe "Target hire date for initial start is January 1, 2027." That's schedule info? Could be included under Schedule or maybe as a note. We'll include schedule: full-time, 10-month contract; target hire date Jan 1, 2027.
We must not include application instructions, duplicated lines, etc.
