We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes Position Summary, Job Description, Accountabilities (which are responsibilities), Required Qualifications, Education And Experience, About The Team (benefits). No explicit Pay or Schedule. So we should have sections: About the role (maybe from Position Summary?), Responsibilities (Accountabilities), Requirements (maybe Required Qualifications?), Qualifications (Education And Experience?), Skills (maybe from abilities?), Benefits (About The Team). We need to not repeat job title. 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 like EEO etc. There's none. Also remove duplicated lines. We need to parse the content. Let's extract sections: Position Summary: "At NMDP, the Associate General Counsel – Healthcare & Privacy position is an opportunity to practice law in direct support of NMDP’s life-saving mission. This position will appeal to an attorney who wants meaningful responsibility, exposure to diverse legal issues, and the opportunity to grow as a practical, solutions-oriented in-house advisor. The Associate General Counsel – Healthcare & Privacy will join a small, collaborative in-house legal team responsible for providing operationally aware legal advice to cross-functional partners and project teams throughout the organization across a broad range of matters, with a non-exclusive focus on healthcare and privacy laws and regulations. The Associate General Counsel – Healthcare & Privacy will be expected to identify legal and business risks, help develop practical solutions, and communicate clearly with non-legal stakeholders. Primary areas of focus will include providing legal support for Operations, Compliance, Quality, and Research, and managing confidentiality and information-handling matters, document reviews, and special projects. The role may also include selected contracting, procurement/vendor relations, corporate, compliance, and outside counsel management matters. The Associate General Counsel – Healthcare & Privacy will participate in the development and implementation of NMDP policies and procedures related to legal and regulatory obligations and will maintain knowledge of relevant laws, regulations, guidance, interpretations, and court decisions as they affect NMDP. The position may direct the work of paralegals, outside counsel, or other legal support resources as needed to provide efficient and effective service." That's a prose description; we can put under

It's part of benefits. We'll keep as a sentence. Now we need to output HTML fragment only. We'll have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe combine Required Qualifications?), Qualifications (Education And Experience?), Skills (maybe from abilities?), Benefits. But we must not create sections with filler. We have content for each. We need to decide mapping: - About the role: from Position Summary. - Responsibilities: from Accountabilities. - Requirements: maybe from Required Qualifications (knowledge and abilities). Could be "Requirements". - Qualifications: from Education And Experience. - Skills: maybe we could extract from abilities? But we already used abilities in Requirements. Could combine knowledge and abilities as Requirements, and Education/Experience as Qualifications. Skills maybe not needed. But we could create a Skills section from abilities like "Draft, review, negotiate legal documents", etc. However we already used them. To avoid thin sections, we could have only About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (including knowledge, abilities, education/experience), Benefits. But the instruction says use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. It's okay to omit some if no content. We need to include a section only when posting has real specific content. So we can include About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits. That seems fine. We need to ensure we don't repeat job title. Now format:
