Assistant City Solicitor - Tort Litigation Unit job

We need to output HTML format. Need sections: About the role? Actually we have description of company, agency description, position summary, essential functions, competencies, qualifications, work location, who thrives, benefits, salary range, etc. We must not repeat job title as heading. Use

for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. But we should only include sections when posting has real specific content. We need to map content to these headings. We have: - About the role: could be Position Summary (description of role). Use

About the role

then

with summary. - Responsibilities: Essential Functions list. Use

Responsibilities

then

• each duty. - Requirements: Qualifications (education, bar admission, experience). Use

  Requirements

  then

  or

  . - Skills: Competencies, Knowledge, Skills And Abilities. Use

  Skills

  then
  . - Benefits: list of benefits (transportation, parental leave, health coverage, wellness, vacation, retirement, PSLF, tuition discounts). Use

  Benefits

  then
  . - Pay: Salary Range: $83,945 to $94,686 – Commensurate with education and experience. Since "Comm..." is placeholder? It says "Comm...". The instruction: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") . So we should not include Pay section if it's just "Comm...". However we have actual numbers; but the phrase includes "Comm...". The instruction says never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. If we include Pay heading, we must put substantive content. The salary range is substantive, but the phrase "Comm..." is filler. We could output just the range without the phrase? The posting says: "Salary Range: $83,945 to $94,686 – Commensurate with education and experience". We could keep the range and maybe drop the "Comm..." part? But we must preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. The "Comm..." is part of the posting; it's not filler? It's a phrase indicating it's commensurate. The instruction says never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") . So if we include Pay heading, we must not have just that phrase. But we have the range plus that phrase. The phrase is considered filler? It's basically saying it's commensurate; maybe we should omit the Pay section entirely because it's not specific enough? However we have actual numbers, which is specific. The instruction says never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. If we include the range, it's not filler. The phrase "Comm..." is filler but we could keep it as part of the content; the heading would be followed by substantive content (the range) plus filler. Not sure. Safer to omit Pay section because they explicitly mention to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". So we will not include Pay. - Schedule: Work Location & Onsite Expectations: fully onsite, five days per week. That's schedule info. Could be Schedule heading. Use

  Schedule

  then

  with details. We also have "Who Thrives In This Role" - could be maybe "About the role" or separate? Not in prescribed headings list. Could be omitted or folded into About the role? Probably we can include as part of About the role or separate section like "Ideal Candidate". But only allowed headings are those listed. We could put that content under "About the role" or "Skills"? Better to include under "About the role" as additional paragraph. Also we have "Agency Description" and "Description De L'entreprise" (company description). Could be part of About the role? Not exactly. But we could include a section "About the agency" but not in allowed headings. The instruction: Use

  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says e.g., meaning those are examples, but we should prefer those headings. Likely we should stick to those headings only. So we need to map all content to those headings. Thus: - About the role: combine company description, agency description, position summary, who thrives. - Responsibilities: essential functions. - Requirements: qualifications (education, bar, experience). - Skills: competencies etc. - Benefits: list. - Schedule: work location/onsite expectations. We must not include Pay. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, scam warning, etc. Remove those. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's extract details. Company description: "A best-in-class city that attracts best-in-class talent, Philadelphia is an incredible place to build a career.
