We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes: Job Description (overview), Education and Experience (requirements), Skills and Knowledge (skills), Responsibilities (list). No explicit Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should include sections: About the role (maybe from first paragraph?), Responsibilities, Requirements (Education and Experience), Skills (Skills and Knowledge). Possibly Qualifications could be same as Requirements? The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We need to decide which to include. The posting has "Education and Experience" which is requirements. Also "Skills and Knowledge". Could also have "Qualifications" maybe combine with Requirements? But we should not create empty sections. So include About the role (summary), Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills. No Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to use

for each section heading. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Also remove Application Instructions, About Syracuse University, About The Syracuse Area, EEO Statement, Commitment to Supporting and Hiring Veterans, Commitment to a Respectful and Welcoming Community. Also remove Physical Requirements, Tools/Equipment, etc. We need to keep the core content: Job Description paragraph(s), Education and Experience, Skills and Knowledge, Responsibilities (with sub-sections). Also maybe "Education and Experience" includes bullet-like sentences; we can turn into

    • . Similarly Skills and Knowledge bullet list. Responsibilities has multiple sub-sections: Recruitment Strategy and Communications, Inquiry Generation and Events, Admissions and Enrollment Management, Data, Reporting, and Awards, Liaison to Campus Admissions and External Councils. Each has bullet points. We need to preserve them. We need to avoid repeating the job title as heading. The job title is "Associate Director of Admissions and Recruitment". Not to repeat as heading. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's extract content. Job Description paragraph(s): "The Associate Director of Admissions and Recruitment leads the enrollment management strategy for the School of Education (SOE), overseeing recruitment and the admissions process for the School’s graduate programs (master’s, CAS, and doctoral) in education as well as its undergraduate programs, including the Bachelor of Science in Social Work (BSSW) program.

We need to split into list items. Skills and Knowledge: "Strong communication and interpersonal skills; demonstrated leadership abilityStrategic planning and data analysis skillsEvent planning experienceExceptional organizational skillsAbility to inspire and counsel prospective graduate and undergraduate students regarding program and career options" We need to split into list items. Responsibilities: We have sections with bullet points. Let's extract each.

The instruction only says use

      for section headings (About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid additional headings inside? It says use

      for section headings (list). Likely they want only those top-level headings. Inside Responsibilities we can just have
      • for each duty, maybe grouping not required. But we could keep the subheadings as plain text or ? The instruction didn't forbid other headings, but to be safe we can just list all responsibilities as a flat list. However that may lose some grouping but still preserve all info. The instruction: "Use
        • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

          for prose." So we can just make one big list under Responsibilities containing all duty items. That's okay. Similarly for Requirements we can list each requirement as

        • . Skills as list. Now we need to ensure we don't include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. Now produce HTML. Structure:

          About the role

          ... (the job description paragraph(s))

          Responsibilities

          • ...

          • ...
          • ...
          No Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Make sure to preserve all details exactly as in text, but we can split sentences. Let's craft the About the role paragraph: combine the description into one or two paragraphs? It's okay to have one

          with the whole description. Now list items. Requirements list items: - Bachelor’s degree required; master’s degree preferred. - Five or more years of experience in higher education, with a focus on admissions and recruitment or equivalent experience required, including demonstrated experience leading enrollment strategy. - Experience with both graduate and undergraduate admissions preferred. - Knowledge of current University systems (SLATE, PeopleSoft, Microsoft Office). - Ability to travel. - Familiarity with academic institutions (higher education and K-12) helpful.
