We need sections: About the role (maybe description), Responsibilities (teaching, director duties, etc.), Requirements (required qualifications), Qualifications (maybe preferred?), Skills (maybe language knowledge?), Benefits (none specific), Pay (salary statement), Schedule (none). We should only include sections with real specific content. We have location and deadline: could be part of About the role? Could be a short paragraph. We must not include placeholder like "commensurate with experience" for Pay? Actually salary statement is "Salary Will Be Commensurate With Qualifications And Experience." That's somewhat generic but it's actual content. The instruction says: "IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. 'commensurate with experience', 'not specified', 'N/A', 'varies', 'TBD')". So we cannot include Pay section if it's just "commensurate with qualifications and experience" because that's considered filler? The example includes "commensurate with experience" as placeholder to avoid. So we should omit Pay section. Similarly Schedule: no info. Benefits: none. Skills: maybe language knowledge? Could be considered part of qualifications. But we could have a Skills section for "Knowledge of at least one of the languages of India" etc. However we already have qualifications covering that. Might be redundant. Better to have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (required qualifications), Qualifications (preferred qualifications). Or combine required and preferred under Qualifications? The instruction says use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can have Requirements for required qualifications, Qualifications for preferred qualifications, Skills maybe for language knowledge? But language knowledge is already in required qualifications. Could put under Skills: "Knowledge of at least one of the languages of India". But we already have that in required qualifications; maybe we can keep it under Requirements and not duplicate. We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. So we must include all details from description, responsibilities, qualifications, etc. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, application instructions, copyright, etc. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's craft sections:
