Associate Curator
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections with real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits unless posting actually states them. The posting includes "Unrivaled Benefits" with details. Also includes "Position Type Limited (Fixed Term)" and "Library Hiring Range $63,679.00 - $84,375.00". That's pay info. Also schedule? Not explicit schedule. There's mention of flexible hours including some evenings and weekends under "What You Would Bring". That's not schedule per se but could be considered schedule? The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. Benefits are stated. Pay is stated (hiring range). Schedule? Not explicitly given; only flexible hours mention. Might not be enough to create a Schedule section. Safer to omit Schedule.
We need sections: About the role (maybe "About Our Position" or "About the role"? The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should map content to those headings. We have:
- About the role: could be "About Our Position" description.
- Responsibilities: list of duties (the bullet list under "About Our Position" after "As an Associate Curator, you will collaboratively administer all aspects...").
- Requirements: maybe "Minimum Qualifications" and "Preferred Qualifications"? Could be under Requirements and Qualifications? The instruction separate Requirements and Qualifications. We could put minimum qualifications under Requirements, preferred under Qualifications. Or combine? We'll follow: Requirements = Minimum Qualifications. Qualifications = Preferred Qualifications.
- Skills: maybe "What You Would Bring" list of skills/competencies.
- Benefits: from "Unrivaled Benefits".
- Pay: from "Library Hiring Range".
We must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate like "About Our Job", "About Our Team", etc? Those are headings but we need to reformat. We can keep substance but headings must be from allowed list. So we need to extract content and place under appropriate headings.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details from those sections.
Let's extract:
About the role (About Our Position): The paragraph(s) describing the position: "We are seeking two term-limited Associate Curators to join our Museum Services team in developing exhibits and public-facing experiences that explore our collections, center community voices, foster curiosity, and advance equity. You will work at the intersection of museums, library services, community engagement, and exhibition practice to create experiences that invite visitors into conversation with history, art, and culture. Under the direction of the Curator, the Associate Curators will be essential in expanding and establishing this team’s services. You will conduct research, develop curatorial projects, and collaborate across DPL to organize, design, and install exhibits at the Central Library, Blair-Caldwell African American Research Library, and branch locations.

As an Associate Curator, you will collaboratively administer all aspects of exhibits and temporary installations from conception through completion. The program themes and content must meet the library's standards for high-quality visitor experiences."
That's the description. We'll put that under About the role
as

Also there is a note: "Don't let a 'checklist' hold you back! ..." That's encouragement; could be included under Qualifications? Might be considered part of qualifications but it's more encouragement. We could include as a

Skills (What You Would Bring): list: "Excellent verbal and written communication skills Ability to move between periods of independent work and collaborative work Ability to occasionally work flexible hours including some evenings and weekends Knowledge of accessibility best practices and universal design principles Proficiency with collaborative project management tools and software Knowledge of Western American history, Colorado history, African American history, or related regional history Experience with art and artifact handling, condition reporting, and collection management systems" We'll put as

Benefits: from "Unrivaled Benefits": The text: "The City and County of Denver offers a competitive salary commensurate with education and experience. We also offer generous benefits for full-time employees which include but is not limited to: Four (4) Medical Plans, Dental, Vision Insurance Pension Plan for Life (employee contributes 8.45%, employer contributes 17.95%) and 457 (b) Retirement Plan PTO (over 3 weeks in your first year), quarterly wellness hours, and 12 paid holidays CARE Bank, Family Leave Benefits Enhanced Work/Life Balance: Employee Assistance Program (6 counseling sessions per year, legal assistance, financial counseling, discounted recreation center passes), Employee Volunteer Program Professional Learning and Development Opportunities; Courses and Career Development Resources ; Education Refund Program EcoPass (unlimited free RTD bus/train rides) For more information please visit our website."
We need to preserve all details. We'll put as
- each benefit item. However the text is a bit run-on. We'll split logically:
- Four (4) Medical Plans
- Dental
- Vision Insurance
- Pension Plan for Life (employee contributes 8.45%, employer contributes 17.95%)
- 457(b) Retirement Plan
- PTO (over 3 weeks in your first year)

We'll keep as list.
Pay: from "Library Hiring Range $63,679.00 - $84,375.00". Also mention "Position Type Limited (Fixed Term)". That's not pay but could be under Pay? Probably not. We'll just put Pay section with the range.
We might also include "Position Type Limited (Fixed Term)" as maybe under About the role? But not needed. Could be omitted as not under allowed headings. However we must preserve all substantive information. If we omit it, we lose info. Could we include it under About the role as a sentence? The About the role section could include that it's a term-limited position. The original About Our Position didn't mention term-limited? Actually it said "We are seeking two term-limited Associate Curators". That is in About Our Position. So we already have that. The "Position Type Limited (Fixed Term)" appears later in "About Everything Else". That's duplicate. So we can ignore duplicate.
Thus Pay section:
Pay
The hiring range for this position is $63,679.00 – $84,375.00.
We should not include Schedule. Now ensure we remove boilerplate: navigation, cookie, legal, EEO, etc. The text includes a lot of EEO at the end: "Assessment Requirement The City and County of Denver provides equal employment opportunities..." We must remove that. Also "Job Profile LQ3603 Curator To view the full job profile..." remove. Also "Application & Additional Info" etc remove. Also "About Everything Else" etc remove. Also "About Our Team" we used some content? Actually we used About Our Team? Not needed for sections; we could ignore. The team description may be considered substantive but not under allowed headings. Could we incorporate into About the role? Possibly not needed. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we can omit team description if not fitting headings. But we must preserve all substantive information; if we omit team description, we lose info. However maybe team description is not essential for the role? It's about the unit. Could be considered part of About the role? Might be okay to include as part of About the role paragraph. We could add a sentence about the team: "The Special Collections and Archives (SCA) unit comprises two archival repositories..." etc. That is substantive about the team. We could incorporate into About the role as additional context. Let's do that: after the description, add a sentence about the team. Thus About the role paragraph will include both the position description and team description. Now ensure we don't repeat any boilerplate like "About Our Job", "About Our Team", etc. We'll just write our own sentences using the info. Now produce HTML fragment. Let's craft:About the role
