We need to output HTML fragment with sections for Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, etc. Must not repeat job title. Must not include boilerplate like EEO, drug screening, etc. Must preserve substantive info. Must not include sections with placeholder text. Must include only sections where there is real specific content. Let's parse the posting.

Communicates with and advises agencies, including travel to other locations for meetings or hearings.Performs related duties required and assigned by the Division Director and Chief of Staff, such as handling cases outside primary duty assignment." That's a lot of repetitive text. We need to extract substantive responsibilities, not duplicate. We'll summarize but must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. However we can condense duplicate sentences? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." That suggests we should not omit details, but we can combine similar points? Might be considered summarizing away detail. Safer to keep the content but remove duplication? The instruction says "do NOT invent or summarize away detail." Summarizing away detail could be considered removing detail. But we can still present the responsibilities in a list, each bullet being a distinct duty. The original text repeats many similar sentences; we can consolidate them into unique duties without losing detail. That might be considered summarizing but not losing detail if we capture each distinct duty. The repeated sentences are essentially same; we can deduplicate. Thus we can produce a

with li items for each distinct responsibility. Let's list distinct responsibilities: - Perform under limited supervision professional legal work in preparing briefs, pleadings, opinions, and representing assigned State agencies. - Perform under general supervision professional legal work for the State, its subdivisions, and officials. - Prepare memos, provide research, and/or participate in supporting murder litigation as needed. - Make instructional presentations. - Primarily assigned to the Capital and Collateral Litigation Section, handling all murder direct appeals in South Carolina appellate courts and all federal habeas corpus litigation under 28 U.S.C. §§ 2254 & 2241 involving South Carolina crimes in federal court. - Perform professional legal work relating to capital litigation and murder appeals in South Carolina appellate courts, including reading trial transcripts, researching legal issues, drafting briefs, preparing pleadings, presenting oral argument before South Carolina appellate courts; may require admission and practice before the U.S. Supreme Court. - Communicate with trial and appellate counsel; travel to other locations to examine trial exhibits; coordinate appellate work with trial counsel; order trial transcripts; calendar and schedule work to conform to court dates. - Handle complex death penalty litigation and murder appellate litigation. - Perform professional legal work relating to post-conviction relief in primarily death penalty convictions (also non-death penalty as needed); research legal issues; prepare pleadings and responses to applications for post-conviction relief involving death penalty convictions; prepare returns, briefs, and oral arguments for appeals from state court hearing; make transportation arrangements for witnesses and death row inmates; represent the State in Court of Common Pleas, South Carolina appellate courts on appeal, and U.S. Supreme Court. - Perform professional legal work relating to federal habeas corpus relief proceedings in Federal District Court, Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals, and U.S. Supreme Court; research legal issues; prepare pleadings and responses to petitions for federal habeas corpus relief; prepare motions and responses to filings; make professional decisions on case handling and appeal; brief issues before the U.S. Court of Appeals and complete oral arguments if necessary; make transportation arrangements for witnesses or petitioners for court-ordered hearings; handle both death penalty and non-death penalty federal habeas corpus actions. - Represent assigned State agencies as required by the South Carolina Attorney General; communicate with and advise agencies, including travel to other locations for meetings or hearings. - Perform related duties as assigned by Division Director and Chief of Staff, such as handling cases outside primary duty assignment. Now Requirements section: "Minimum And Additional Requirements J.D. degree and at least five years of practicing experience. Necessary Requirement: Must be a member of the SC Bar in good standing and have satisfied 403 requirements. Additional Requirement Position will require overnight travel and occasional out-of-state travel. Must be able to transport files to and from court. Preferred Qualifications Must be well organized and work independently. General supervision.Expectation to promptly notify the supervisor of any issues, problems, or suggestions related to job duties." We need to separate Minimum Requirements, Additional Requirements, Preferred Qualifications. The posting lumps them. We'll create sub-sections? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have a single Requirements section, but we could also have Qualifications separate. However we have both Requirements and Preferred Qualifications. We could make a Requirements section for mandatory, and a Qualifications section for preferred. Or we could combine. The instruction says "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it". So we can have both Requirements and Qualifications sections. Thus: - Requirements (mandatory): J.D. degree, at least five years of practicing experience, member of SC Bar in good standing, satisfied 403 requirements. - Additional requirements (maybe still Requirements): overnight travel, occasional out-of-state travel, ability to transport files to/from court. - Preferred Qualifications: well organized, work independently, general supervision, expectation to promptly notify supervisor of any issues, problems, or suggestions related to job duties. But "General supervision." is weird; maybe it's a note that the position works under general supervision. We'll keep as a bullet. Now Benefits section: "This Position Also Includes An Excellent Benefits Package Public Service Loan Forgiveness eligibility.Paid parental leave.Health, dental, vision, long-term disability, and life insurance for employees, spouses, and children.Fifteen days of annual (vacation) leave per year.Fifteen days of sick leave per year.Thirteen paid holidays.State Retirement Plan and Deferred Compensation Programs." We need to parse into list items. - Public Service Loan Forgiveness eligibility - Paid parental leave - Health, dental, vision, long-term disability, and life insurance for employees, spouses, and children - Fifteen days of annual (vacation) leave per year - Fifteen days of sick leave per year - Thirteen paid holidays - State Retirement Plan and Deferred Compensation Programs Now Pay and Schedule: Not mentioned, so we omit those sections. Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no /, no markdown fences. We'll produce:

Responsibilities

... etc. Then

Requirements

Preferred Qualifications

... Then

Benefits

... Make sure to not include boilerplate like drug screening, EEO, etc. Check for any other substantive content: "This Position Also Includes An Excellent Benefits Package" we captured. Now ensure we didn't miss any responsibility: "Performs under limited supervision professional legal work in preparing briefs, pleadings, opinions, and in representing assigned State agencies." Already captured. "Performs under general supervision professional legal work for the State, its subdivisions, and officials." captured. "Performs under general supervision professional legal work in preparing briefs, pleadings, and opinions in representing the State, its subdivisions, and officials." This is similar to first but maybe distinct? It's basically same as first but limited vs general supervision. We have both limited and general supervision versions. We could keep both as separate bullets: one limited supervision, one general supervision. But we already have limited supervision bullet; we need a general supervision bullet for preparing briefs etc. We'll add. "May be asked to prepare memos, provide research and/or participate in supporting murder litigation as needed." captured. "May also be asked to make instructional presentations." captured. "Primarily assigned to the Capital and Collateral Litigation Section, which is tasked with the handling of all murder direct appeals, primarily in the South Carolina appellate courts, and all federal habeas corpus litigation under both 28 U.S.C.2254 & 2241 involving various South Carolina crimes in the federal court system." captured. "Performs under general supervision professional legal work relating to capital litigation and murder appeals in the South Carolina appellate courts, including the reading of trial transcripts, research of legal issues, drafting of briefs, preparation of pleadings, and presentation of oral argument before the South Carolina appellate courts.
