Time Type: Full time Location: Onsite Pay Range: $60,000.00 - $70,000.00 (plus description about compensation determination). We need to preserve the description about compensation determination as well. Benefits: "The position may also be eligible for comprehensive benefits, including health insurance, retirement plans, and tuition assistance." We should not repeat benefits in Pay section; but Pay section includes that sentence also. We'll keep both but avoid duplication? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep both the compensation description and the benefits sentence. However the benefits sentence appears also in Pay section; we could keep it only once under Benefits. But the Pay section also includes that sentence; if we remove it from Pay, we lose that sentence. But we can keep it under Benefits and still keep the Pay description without that sentence? The Pay description includes: "The position may also be eligible for comprehensive benefits, including health insurance, retirement plans, and tuition assistance." If we remove it, we lose that sentence. But we could keep it under Benefits and also keep it under Pay? That would duplicate. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; does not forbid duplication? It says "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading" and "do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

  or drop it." It doesn't explicitly forbid duplicating content, but we should avoid unnecessary duplication. However we need to preserve all substantive info; duplication is still preserving. Safer to keep it in both sections? Might be considered redundant but not violating. However better to avoid duplication by moving the benefits sentence to Benefits section and keep Pay section without that sentence. But then we lose that sentence from Pay section; but it's still present in Benefits section, so overall info preserved. The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." As long as the information appears somewhere, it
