We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like EEO, application instructions, etc. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting.

We need to remove application procedure, EEO, etc. We need to decide sections. We have content for: - About the role (maybe summary of position) - Responsibilities (duties) - Requirements (maybe required qualifications) - Qualifications (maybe preferred qualifications) - Skills (maybe knowledge of equipment, certifications) - Benefits (benefits package) - Pay (salary competitive) - Schedule (teaching load 9 hours per semester, appointment date maybe schedule? but schedule maybe not explicit; we have teaching load and start date; but schedule section maybe not needed if not explicit. The instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. So we need to see if there is schedule content: teaching 9 hours per semester is a duty, not schedule. Appointment date is about start date, not schedule. So maybe we omit Schedule section. Pay: we have "Salary will be competitive and commensurate to rank, experience, and qualifications." That's specific enough? It's not a number but it's a statement. The instruction says: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Here we have "Salary will be competitive and commensurate to rank, experience, and qualifications." That is somewhat vague but it's a statement about salary. Is that considered filler? The example of filler includes "commensurate with experience". That's exactly what we have. So we should NOT create a Pay section because it's just filler. So we omit Pay. Benefits: "An excellent and comprehensive benefits package is available." That's vague but it's a statement about benefits. The instruction says never create Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It does state that there is an excellent and comprehensive benefits package. That's a statement but not detailed. Is that considered filler? The example filler includes "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD". "Excellent and comprehensive benefits package" is somewhat vague but still a statement. I'd lean to include Benefits section because it's mentioned. However the instruction says "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state that there is an excellent and comprehensive benefits package. So we can include Benefits section with that sentence. Schedule: we have teaching load 9 hours per semester, but that's under duties. Not a schedule section. So we omit Schedule. Now we need to decide headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits. We need to map content. About the role: maybe a brief overview: tenure-track Assistant Professor of Exercise Science at UAH Department of Kinesiology, focus on teaching and mentoring undergraduate research. Responsibilities: teaching 9 hours per semester, scholarly activities, professional service, serving on committees, curriculum development, laboratory supervision, other duties as assigned, teaching specific courses, mentoring undergraduate research. Requirements: Required Qualifications list. Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications list. Skills: maybe knowledge of maintaining and use of human performance lab equipment, active participation/certification from professional organizations, experience with programmatic accreditation, potential to collaborate, grant writing, online/hybrid teaching, course development. Could be considered Skills. But we might combine some. We need to avoid duplication. Let's extract. Required Qualifications: - Earned doctorate (ABD will be considered) in Exercise Science, Sports Science, Health and Human Performance, or related field - Experience teaching university students in Exercise Science, Sports Science, Health and Human Performance, or related discipline - Demonstrated evidence of scholarly productivity (e.g., peer-reviewed manuscripts, presentations, external funding) - Demonstrated evidence to pursue a defined line of research in Exercise Science, Sports Science or Kinesiology-related field Preferred Qualifications: - Experience developing/enhancing undergraduate exercise science, kinesiology, and/or sports science-related courses - Experience teaching university students in online, hybrid, and/or face-to-face modalities - Potential to collaborate in regards to teaching or academic research with other academic units, colleagues within the university, and community partners - Demonstrated potential in grant writing and history of seeking/obtaining funded projects - Knowledge of maintaining and use of human performance laboratory equipment (EMG, force plates, metabolic cart, etc.) - Active participation in and certification from pertinent professional organizations (ACSM, NSCA, etc.) - Experience working with programmatic accreditation Now Skills: maybe we can include knowledge of equipment, certifications, grant writing, collaboration, online/hybrid teaching, course development. But many of those are already in Preferred Qualifications. To avoid duplication, maybe we treat Preferred Qualifications as Qualifications section, and Skills as a separate section for specific technical skills like equipment knowledge, certifications. But we risk duplication. Better: Use Qualifications for both required and preferred? But we have separate headings Requirements and Qualifications. The instruction says use headings for Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can put Required Qualifications under Requirements heading, Preferred Qualifications under Qualifications heading, and maybe Skills under Skills heading for things like knowledge of equipment, certifications, grant writing, collaboration, online/hybrid teaching. However some of those are also in Preferred Qualifications. To avoid duplication, we could split: Preferred Qualifications includes experience developing courses, teaching modalities, collaboration, grant writing, equipment knowledge, certifications, accreditation experience. We could put equipment knowledge and certifications under Skills, and the rest under Qualifications. But we need to preserve all substantive info; we can duplicate? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Duplication is not prohibited but might be redundant. Better to avoid duplication by placing each piece only once. Let's decide: - Requirements: Required Qualifications (as above) - Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications that are about experience/collaboration/grant writing/course development/teaching modalities (maybe also accreditation experience) - Skills: Knowledge of maintaining and use of human performance laboratory equipment (EMG, force plates, metabolic cart, etc.), Active participation in and certification from pertinent professional organizations (ACSM, NSCA, etc.) But we also have "Experience developing/enhancing undergraduate exercise science, kinesiology, and/or sports science-related courses" - that's more of a qualification/experience, could go under Qualifications. "Experience teaching university students in online, hybrid, and/or face-to-face modalities" - also qualification. "Potential to collaborate in regards to teaching or academic research with other academic units, colleagues within the university, and community partners" - qualification. "Demonstrated potential in grant writing and history of seeking/obtaining funded projects" - qualification. "Experience working with programmatic accreditation" - qualification. Thus Skills: equipment knowledge and certifications. Now Responsibilities: include teaching load, scholarly activities, professional service, committee service, curriculum development, lab supervision, teaching specific courses, mentoring undergraduate research, other duties as assigned. About the role: brief overview: tenure-track Assistant Professor of Exercise Science at UAH Department of Kinesiology, focus on teaching and mentoring undergraduate research, areas of expertise may include..., primary teaching responsibilities include specific courses. We also have About the Department and About the University and About Huntsville. Those could be considered "About the role"? Not exactly. The instruction says use headings for About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. It doesn't have headings for About Department/University/Huntsville. So we need to decide where
