Assistant Professor of Geosciences

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role (maybe summary), Responsibilities, Requirements/Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule only if present. The posting includes: Summary Of Job Duties (description), Duties Will Include percentages, Qualifications (Minimum and Preferred), Benefits Eligible Yes, Salary Information (commensurate with experience and qualifications - we should NOT include Pay section because it's not specific; it's just "commensurate with experience" which is placeholder, so we should omit Pay section). Schedule: not specified (no schedule details). Benefits: we have "Benefits Eligible Yes" and earlier description of benefits package: university contributions to health, dental, life and disability insurance, tuition waivers, 12 official holidays, immediate leave accrual, choice of retirement programs with university contributions ranging from 5 to 10% of employee salary. That's substantive benefits info. So we can include Benefits section with those details. We also have Institution Name, Founded etc. That could go under About the role or maybe a separate About the institution? But instructions: use headings for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should map content accordingly. We have "Summary Of Job Duties" which is about role. Could be About the role. Responsibilities: we have Duties Will Include percentages and also description of teaching, research, service. Could list as bullet points. Requirements/Qualifications: Minimum Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. Skills: maybe not separate; we could omit if not specific. Benefits: as described. Pay: omit because only "commensurate with experience". Schedule: omit. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID etc. We must remove boilerplate: login instructions, etc. Keep substantive info. We need to preserve all substantive information: include details about institution, department, etc. Possibly include under About the role or a separate section like About the Department? But only allowed headings are those listed; we could put department info under About the role or maybe under Responsibilities? Better to include under About the role a paragraph about institution and department. We must not include EEO etc. Remove accommodation request lines? Those are boilerplate? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. The accommodation request lines might be considered EEO/legal; but they are substantive? It's about disability accommodations; could be considered EEO. Safer to remove. Also remove contact info for general assistance? Might be considered boilerplate but it's specific contact HR phone number; maybe keep? It's not a heading; but it's contact info. The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." The HR contact phone number could be considered application instructions? It's for general assistance. Might be considered application instructions; better to remove. Also remove recruitment contact info? That's specific to the position; maybe keep? It's not a heading but could be considered application instructions? It's a contact for inquiries; maybe keep as part of About the role? The instruction says remove application instructions; but recruitment contact info is not exactly instructions; it's a contact for questions. Might be okay to keep. However to be safe, we could keep it as a paragraph under About the role. We must preserve all substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include the benefits details exactly as described. Let's extract substantive paragraphs: - Institution description: Founded in 1871, land grant, Carnegie classification, etc. (the paragraph about University of Arkansas works to advance...). - Campus location: Fayetteville, welcoming community, region, Fortune 500 companies, economy, arts, quality of life. - As an employer: vibrant work environment, work-life balance. - Benefits package: university contributions to health, dental, life and disability insurance, tuition waivers for employees and families, 12 official holidays, immediate leave accrual, choice of retirement programs with university contributions ranging from 5 to 10% of employee salary. - Summary Of Job Duties: paragraph about Assistant Professor of Geosciences, start August 2027, nine-month appointment, ideal candidate record, develop research program in critical minerals, teach courses, mentoring, in-person position, attendance essential. - Duties Will Include: 40% Teaching or Professional Performance, 40% Research/Scholarly and/or Creative Activities, 20% Academic Service Activities. - Qualifications: Minimum Qualifications: PhD in geosciences or closely related field from accredited institution conferred by date of initial appointment; Evidence of, or demonstrated potential for, geoscience teaching and mentoring at graduate and undergraduate levels; Evidence of, or demonstrated potential for, developing and maintaining active research in the field of critical minerals (as defined by USGS or DOE). - Preferred Qualifications: Strong record of successful publication and external funding in critical minerals; Demonstrated ability to develop effective undergraduate and graduate courses that complement current course catalog; Expertise in critical minerals relevant to State of Arkansas, such as lithium brine. - Additional Information: This position is a Designated Research Position regulated by Arkansas Research Education Protection Act of 2025. Prior to issuance of an offer, University required to request and obtain additional info about applicant’s background and, if required, conduct additional review. - About The Department: description of department faculty, programs, field trips, involvement with centers. - Salary Information: Salary is commensurate with experience and qualifications. (We omit Pay section.) - Required Documents: list. - Optional Documents: Proof of Veteran Status. - Recruitment Contact Information: Adriana Potra, Search committee chair, potra@uark.edu. - Special Instructions: Completed applications received by October 30, 2026, will be assured full consideration. Late applications reviewed as necessary. For additional inquiries, contact search committee chair. - Applicants Must Submit: list of items (cover letter, CV, references, teaching statement, research statement). (Note: some duplication with Required Documents.) - Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until position filled. - Pre-employment Screening Requirements: Criminal Background Check, Sex Offender Registry. (Also mention other possible checks.) - University commitment statements: equal opportunity, etc. (These are EEO boilerplate; we should remove.) - Persons must have proof of legal authority to work in US first day. - All Application information subject to public disclosure under Arkansas FOIA. - Constant Physical Activity N/A etc. (These are placeholder; we should omit.) - Benefits Eligible Yes. We need to include Benefits section with the benefits package details (including the earlier description). Also note Benefits Eligible Yes. We need to avoid duplication: we have benefits described earlier; we can combine. We must not include placeholder like "N/A". So omit those lines. We must not create Pay or Schedule sections. We need to use

for section headings. Use

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

  for prose. We need to decide which sections to include: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits. Possibly also Skills? Not needed. We could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section? The instructions list both as possible headings; we can have both if content exists. We have Minimum Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications; we could put them under Qualifications heading. Requirements maybe not separate; we could omit Requirements heading if no distinct content besides qualifications. But we have "Required Documents" etc. That's not qualifications. Could be under Requirements? Might be better to have a section "Requirements" for required documents? But the instruction says use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have Requirements for required documents, and Qualifications for minimum/preferred qualifications. That seems appropriate. Thus sections: - About the role: includes institution description, department summary, job summary. - Responsibilities: includes duties percentages and description of teaching/research/service. - Requirements: includes required documents list (cover letter, CV, references, teaching statement, research statement) plus optional documents? Optional maybe not required; but we can include under Requirements as optional? Might be better to keep required docs only. - Qualifications: includes minimum and preferred qualifications. - Benefits: includes benefits package description and Benefits Eligible Yes. We must not include application instructions like "Please do not send to listed recruitment contact." That's maybe part of Requirements? Could be considered application instruction; we might remove. The instruction says remove application instructions. The recruitment contact info is not exactly instruction but could be considered contact for questions; maybe keep under About the role? Safer to keep it as a paragraph under About the role? It's not a duty or qualification. Might be considered contact info; not explicitly prohibited. I'd keep it as a paragraph under About the role. We must also include the Special Instructions about deadline Oct 30, 2026. That's application instruction; maybe remove? It's a deadline for full consideration; could be considered important info. The instruction says remove application instructions; but this is a deadline for consideration, not instructions on how to apply. Might be considered substantive. I'd keep it as a paragraph under About the role or maybe under Requirements? Probably under About the role. We need to preserve all substantive information; not summarizing away detail. So we need to include the deadline. We also need to include the statement about review of applications will begin immediately and continue until position filled. We need to include the Pre-employment Screening Requirements (Criminal Background Check, Sex Offender Registry). That's substantive. We need to include the statement about proof of legal authority to work in US. We need to include the statement about public disclosure under FOIA. We need to include the Additional Information about Designated Research Position and Arkansas Research Education Protection Act. We need to include the About The Department paragraph. We need to include the Salary Information line (though we omit Pay section, we could still include it as a paragraph under About the role? It's about salary; but we are not making a Pay section because it's not specific. However we could still include the sentence as prose under About the role? The instruction: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It says we should not create Pay section unless posting actually states them. The posting states "Salary is commensurate with experience and qualifications." That's a statement but it's vague; still it's a statement about pay. Should we include it? The instruction says never create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It does state them (though vague). But also says "never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. 'commensurate with experience', 'not specified', 'N/A', 'varies', 'TBD')". So if we create a Pay section with that text, it would be filler/placeholder. So we should not create a Pay section. But we can still include the sentence elsewhere as prose, not under a Pay heading. The instruction does not forbid including the sentence elsewhere; just forbids creating a Pay section with that placeholder. So we can include the salary sentence in About the role or maybe a separate paragraph. Similarly for Benefits: we have substantive info, so we can create Benefits section. Schedule: no specific schedule info; we should not create Schedule section. Now we need to ensure we don't include duplicated lines. For example, Required Documents and Applicants Must Submit list overlap; we need to preserve all substantive info but avoid duplication. We can combine them into a single list under Requirements, ensuring we include all items: Cover Letter/Letter of Application, Curriculum Vitae, List of three Professional References (name, email, business title), Statement of Research Philosophy, Statement of Teaching Philosophy, Optional Documents Proof of Veteran Status (optional). Also from Applicants Must Submit: A curriculum vitae, A cover letter/letter of application, A list of three professional references (name, title, email address, and phone number), A concise statement, 1-2 pages long, describing teaching experience and how the candidate
