We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we have Position Summary, Responsibilities, Education Qualifications, Experience, Skills And Abilities, About The Company, Perks And Benefits, Pay Range (maybe Pay). Also Benefits mentioned earlier: competitive base salary, incentive compensation, flexibility to work remotely, company vehicle. Also Geo-Salary info: state specific pay scales. Should we include Pay section? The posting includes Pay Range and Geo-Salary info. So we can include a Pay section with that info. Benefits: we have benefits listed earlier and also Perks And Benefits section. So we can have Benefits section maybe combine? The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We should include only those with real content. So we need sections: About the role (maybe Position Summary), Responsibilities, Qualifications (Education Qualifications), Experience, Skills, Benefits, Pay. Possibly About The Company could be under About the role? But we have About The Company separate; maybe we can treat as About the role? However instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, etc. We can include About the role as Position Summary + About The Company? But we need to preserve all substantive info. Could make About the role include Position Summary and About The Company. Or we could have separate About the role and About The Company? The instruction only gave examples, not strict list; we can use other headings if needed? It says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It implies we should use those headings where appropriate. Could also add About The Company as a separate heading? Might be okay but not in list. Safer to combine About the role and About The Company under About the role heading. Also we have Perks And Benefits which can go under Benefits. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate like EEO etc. Also remove application instructions (none). Remove duplicated lines. We need to preserve all substantive info: Position Summary details, Benefits (competitive base salary, incentive compensation, flexibility to work remotely, company vehicle), Geo-Salary info (state specific pay scales, CA range, expected base salary varies), Responsibilities (list), Education Qualifications (minimum and preferred), Experience (minimum and preferred), Skills And Abilities (minimum and preferred), About The Company (description), Perks And Benefits (list). Also note about in-person interview may be required during hiring process - that's substantive? It's a note about hiring process; maybe include under About the role or a separate note? Could be included in a short paragraph under About the role. It's not boilerplate; we should keep. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual pay ranges, so Pay section is valid. Schedule: not mentioned, so omit. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /. Use

for each section heading. Use
  • for lists. Use

    for prose. Let's structure:

    About the role

    Position Summary: An Attorney II is the primary attorney assigned to a caseload defending 1st and 3rd party cases relating to the defense of personal injury lawsuits. Most cases involve injections without completed surgeries and case values up to $150,000. Cases are handled from inception through posttrial motions including bench trials, jury trials, and binding arbitration. Benefits include competitive base salary, incentive compensation, flexibility to work remotely, and a company vehicle. Geo-Salary Information: An in-person interview may be required during the hiring process. State specific pay scales for this role are as follows: $128,136.00 to $252,194.00 (NJ, NY, WA, HI, AK, MD, CT, RI, MA). In CA: Typical hiring range is $171,148.50 to $209,181.50. The expected base salary for this position will vary depending on a number of factors, including relevant experience, skills and location.

    But we also have Pay section separate; maybe we should move pay details to Pay section and keep About the role shorter. However we must preserve all info; we can split. Better: About the role: Position Summary and benefits (flexibility, company vehicle). Pay section: pay ranges. Let's decide: About the role: Position Summary (description of role) and maybe note about in-person interview. Benefits: competitive base salary, incentive compensation, flexibility to work remotely, company vehicle (also maybe other benefits from Perks And Benefits). But we have separate Perks And Benefits list; we could combine into Benefits section. Pay: Pay Range and Geo-Salary info. Responsibilities: list. Qualifications: Education Qualifications. Experience: Experience. Skills: Skills And Abilities. About The Company: maybe we can include under About the role or separate heading "About the company". Since not in list but we could still use h3; instruction says use h3 for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities...). It doesn't forbid other headings, but to be safe we could incorporate About The Company into About the role. Let's do:

    About the role

Most cases involve injections without completed surgeries and case values up to $150,000.

    Benefits: competitive base salary, incentive compensation, flexibility to work remotely, and a company vehicle.

    Then Benefits section could include the Perks And Benefits list. But we already used Benefits heading for short benefits; maybe better to have Benefits section with the full list from Perks And Benefits plus the earlier benefits. Let's combine. Thus:
