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. Remove boilerplate, navigation, EEO, etc. Keep substantive info.
We need to parse the posting.
Key sections:
- About the role: The initial paragraph(s) describing the role: "Find your path and enjoy the journey at Haley & Aldrich...". Probably we can treat that as About the role.
- Responsibilities: The list under "Duties/Responsibilities In this position, you will:" then bullet points.
- Requirements: Minimum Skills and Requirements: Bachelor's degree..., minimum 15 years experience..., Professional Wetland Scientist certification preferred, etc.
- Qualifications: Might be overlapping with Requirements. Could combine? But we need separate sections only if content exists. The posting includes "Skills/Experience Minimum Skills and Requirements:" and then "Preferred Skills". Could treat "Skills" as a section for skills (both required and preferred). However we have separate Skills section.
We have Pay: salary range $110,000 - $150,000 annually, plus bonus program, sign-on bonus eligibility.
Schedule: Not mentioned explicitly; it's full-time position. Could we infer schedule? The posting says "This is a full-time position". That's schedule info (full-time). Should we include Schedule section? The rule: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. "Full-time" is specific enough? It's not a schedule like "Mon-Fri 9-5". Might be considered schedule info. I'd include Schedule with "Full-time". But we need to avoid filler like "not specified". It's specified as full-time. So include.
Benefits: The posting mentions "We offer excellent career growth, a highly competitive total compensation plan, and a solid benefits package." Also mentions discretionary bonus program, sign-on bonus eligibility. That's more compensation than benefits. Benefits could be inferred but not detailed. There's no explicit benefits like health insurance, retirement. So maybe we should not create Benefits section because no specific benefits listed. The rule: never create Benefits unless posting actually states them. It mentions "solid benefits package" but not specifics. That's vague; might be considered filler. Safer to omit Benefits.
Pay: we have salary range and bonus info. So include Pay.
Schedule: we have full-time. Include.
Skills: we have both minimum skills and preferred skills. Could combine into Skills section.
Qualifications: maybe we can treat Requirements as qualifications. But we need both Requirements and Qualifications sections if content distinct. The posting has "Minimum Skills and Requirements:" and "Preferred Skills". Could treat Requirements as the minimum, and Qualifications as preferred? Or we could have Requirements (minimum) and Qualifications (preferred). Let's do that.
Thus sections:
- About the role (h3)
- Responsibilities (h3) with ul li
- Requirements (h3) with ul li (minimum)
- Qualifications (h3) with ul li (preferred)
- Skills (h3) maybe combine? But we already used Requirements and Qualifications for skills/experience. Could also have Skills section for technical skills like "Excellent written and verbal communication skills", "Environmental design and contract package development experience", "Working knowledge of regulatory frameworks". Those are more skills. Could put them under Skills.
But we already have Requirements (minimum) includes Bachelor's degree, years experience, PWS certification preferred, experience with permitting etc. That's already covering many. The "Skills/Experience" section includes both minimum and preferred. Might be better to have:
- Requirements (minimum)
- Qualifications (preferred)
- Skills (additional skills like communication, environmental design, regulatory knowledge)
But there is overlap. To avoid duplication, we need to parse carefully.
