We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we need to use

for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must only include sections when posting has real specific content. We need to preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate like application instructions, FAQ, posting details, posting number, position title, etc. Also remove EEO, etc. Keep content: Position Summary (maybe as About the role?), Duties And Responsibilities, Minimum Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications, Physical Requirements And/or Unusual Work Hours, Salary Posting Information (Pay). Also maybe Benefits: mention holistic benefits package, generous paid time off, competitive retirement savings plan, flexible work options, wellness programs including gym membership, professional development, tuition assistance, etc. That's in the "Why work at Villanova?" paragraph. So we can include Benefits section. Schedule: Work Schedule: full-time/12-months Avg Hours Week. That's schedule info. So include Schedule section. Pay: Salary range $118,400-131,500. We need to not repeat job title as heading. So no heading for Position Title. We need to use

for each section heading. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

  for prose. We need to preserve all substantive info; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include details like location: Villanova, PA? Actually location: Villanova, PA but position is remote in Florida with preference for Naples or Palm Beach. We need to keep that info. Where to put? Possibly in About the role or maybe a separate section? There's no specific heading for Location, but we could include in About the role prose. Since we must not create sections without real content. We can embed location details in About the role paragraph. We need to drop posting number, position type, recruitment type, etc. We need to drop "Special Message To Applicants", "Posting Date", "Closing Date", "References Needed", etc. We need to keep "Position Summary" content (the paragraph about ignite your career, why work at Villanova, etc). That's substantive. We need to keep "Duties And Responsibilities" bullet list (though it's paragraph style). We'll convert to

  • . We need to keep "Minimum Qualifications" list. We need to keep "Preferred Qualifications" list. We need to keep "Physical Requirements And/or Unusual Work Hours" (regular travel to Philadelphia-area expected, occasional evening and weekend work and travel required). That's schedule? Actually schedule already includes full-time/12-months; physical requirements separate. Could be its own section? Not in allowed headings list. Allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Physical requirements could go under Requirements or maybe Skills? Probably under Requirements. We'll include in Requirements section. We need to keep "Salary Posting Information" as Pay. We need to keep benefits info from "Why work at Villanova?" paragraph. We need to keep schedule info: Work Schedule: full-time/12-months Avg Hours Week. We need to keep location info maybe in About the role. Let's craft sections: - About the role: combine Position Summary and maybe location and remote info. Use

    for prose. - Responsibilities: duties list. - Requirements: Minimum Qualifications + Physical Requirements? Could also include "Ability and willingness to travel required." etc. We'll put Minimum Qualifications as list under Requirements. - Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications list. - Skills: maybe communication, interpersonal, analytical skills, organized, detail oriented, team-oriented, self-starter, results-oriented, knowledge of office equipment. Could be separate Skills section. But we already have those in Minimum Qualifications; but we can still create Skills section if we have content. However we must not create thin sections; but we have enough content for skills. We'll include. - Benefits: list of benefits. - Pay: salary range. - Schedule: work schedule. We must not repeat job title. Let's extract details: Position Summary paragraph: "Ignite Your Career at Villanova University!

The University is an equal opportunity employer and seeks candidates who understand, respect and can contribute to the University’s mission and values." That's EEO boilerplate; we should remove it. Also remove "Villanova University has embarked on a 10-year strategic plan..." maybe not boilerplate; it's substantive. Keep. We need to keep the rest.
