We need to output HTML fragment with sections only if real content. Use

for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to map content. From posting: - "Who We Are" description: could be About the role? Actually "Who We Are" is company description. Could be placed under About the role? The instruction: use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to decide which sections have content. We have: - About the role: maybe the description of role and company? The posting includes "Who We Are" and "Who You Are". Could combine into About the role? But we need to preserve all substantive info. We can create sections: About the role (company overview + role summary), Responsibilities (What You Will Do), Requirements (What You Will Need), Qualifications (maybe overlapping with Requirements), Skills (maybe separate), Benefits (none explicit), Pay (none), Schedule (none). Since no explicit Pay, Benefits, Schedule content, we should NOT include those headings. We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to remove boilerplate: EEO etc. Remove the Equal Opportunity Employer paragraph. Also remove duplicated lines: there is duplicate sentence about Aparium grew... appears twice. We should keep only one instance. We need to preserve all substantive info: company description, role description, responsibilities list, requirements list. Let's extract: Company description (Who We Are): "Hotels done differently. It’s not just a slogan or catchphrase, it is who we are in everything we do. We believe in the power of People, Place and Character; ensuring our properties are a place where individuals are valued and celebrated as a tribute to the neighborhoods and the people of the communities in which we operate; elevating our associates’ pride in who they are, where they live and who we serve. The Detroit Foundation Hotel has transformed the historic Detroit Fire Department Headquarters into a 100 room independent hotel that adds another piece to the ongoing Detroit renaissance puzzle. The hotel draws on the Motor- City's unparalleled past while proactively moving the city to its next incarnation as a national cultural, business and artistic touch- point. Featuring an inviting ground- floor restaurant, The Apparatus Room, the hotel partners with local distillers, brewers, farmer s and other edible sundry purveyors to deliver and authentic Detroit experience. The hotel is managed by Aparium, which was founded in 2011, driven by the belief that all hospitality experiences should be fueled by the poetics of their surroundings, Aparium was born with an intense focus on unearthing the amazing moments unique to every city. Since its founding, Aparium has grown into a new kind of hotel brand, one that ventures off the beaten path, both geographically and philosophically. It is a sophisticated hotel brand known for its singular ability to combine the business acumen of large hospitality companies with the charm of boutique hotels, bringing disparate forces together in bustling, smaller markets." There is duplicate of that last sentence; we keep one. Who You Are: description of candidate traits. Could be part of About the role or Qualifications? Probably part of "Who You Are" could be Qualifications or Skills. We'll treat as Qualifications (personal attributes). But we also have "What You Will Need" list of requirements. Thus sections: - About the role: combine company overview + role summary (THE ROLE paragraph). The THE ROLE paragraph: "The Banquet Chef reports to and works directly with the Executive Chef and Chef de Cuisine, collaborating with menu planning, productivity, and ordering processes to ensure production meets business levels. It is critical that you possess a background and basic knowledge of culinary technique related to the F+B concept(s) for the hotel and have a keen understanding of food production and execution for catering and events. You are a highly organized individual and an expert in constant and consistent communication, able to reinforce efficiencies while ensuring consistency in the kitchen operations. You lead the team through your collaborative approach—you understand that the ability to act as a soldier is as critical as being a general. Having the skills to mentor and teach your team of culinarians is a must for this position, as is demonstrating humility and genuine care for the items you create and the individuals who execute upon them. At Aparium, our culinary teams are expected to hold themselves, the guests, and each other in high regard. You will actively develop trusting and transparent relationships with all associates throughout the hotel. You will have the opportunity to work with a phenomenal group of individuals with whom collaboration, humbleness, and open-minds are the norm—no egos are allowed. The ability to work with controlled measure and respect for your leadership team and peers is imperative; we have a no-tolerance policy for the “old school way”." That's substantive. - Responsibilities: "What You Will Do" list (many bullet-like sentences). We'll convert each sentence into
  • . - Requirements / Qualifications: "What You Will Need" list. - Skills: maybe we can extract skills from requirements: reading/writing/oral proficiency English, Spanish plus, college degree preferred, 3-5 years experience, etc. But we already have Requirements. Could combine Requirements and Qualifications? The instruction says we can have sections like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide which to include based on content. We have both a list of requirements (What You Will Need) and also personal attribute statements (Who You Are). Those could be Qualifications. So we can have: - Qualifications: Who You Are paragraph (personal traits) maybe as

    . - Requirements: What You Will Need list. - Skills: maybe we can extract specific skills like "Proficiency in Microsoft Office applications and vendor ordering software", "Ability to appropriately cost out recipes", "Outstanding verbal and multi-tasking skills", "Excellent knowledge of food, with experience in event production and execution", "Ability to work alone without direct supervision", "Ability to work varying schedules...", physical abilities. Those are already in What You Will Need list. So maybe we don't need separate Skills section; we can just have Requirements. But we need to follow instruction: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we can have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements. That's three sections. We must not include Benefits, Pay, Schedule as they lack content. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not include Job ID etc. We must output only HTML fragment. Let's craft:

    About the role

    ... company overview + THE ROLE paragraph ...

    But we need to ensure we don't duplicate content. We'll combine company overview and THE ROLE into one

    maybe long. Could split into two

    for readability but still same section. We need to preserve all substantive info; we can include both. Let's write company overview paragraph (Who We Are) as first p. Then THE ROLE paragraph as second p within same section. Then Responsibilities:

    Responsibilities

    • ... each bullet ...
    Then Requirements:

    Requirements

    • ... each bullet ...
    We need to extract bullet points from What You Will Do and What You Will Need. Let's list What You Will Do sentences (separated by line breaks in original). I'll copy them: - Lead, manage and develop the banquet food operations of the hotel - Oversee banquet controls and systems, including but not limited to, menus, build sheets, order guides, production guides, recipes and set up guidelines. - Work with banquet managers to produce food of the highest quality for events in a timely manner - Maintain banquet equipment and kitchen inventories - Check and coordinate details of each banquet function according to banquet event order - Assist the Executive chef with any scheduling, time and attendance and ordering, and departmental compliance needs - Assist the Executive chef and chef teams with any areas of the kitchen necessary outside of banquet responsibilities - Operate, maintain and properly clean kitchen equipment. Work with property maintenance and third party vendors on any needed upkeep and repairs - Date food containers and rotate as per policies, making sure that all perishables are kept at proper temperatures. - Check pars for shift use, out of-stock items or possible shortages. - Assist in inventories and product ordering. - Ensure sanitation standards that are set forth by the hotel, local, state and federal regulations are in compliance - Anticipate all materials and supplies needed and assure their availability - Control usage of all food and beverage items and appropriate usage of equipment, tools and service equipment - Constantly recommend service and product improvement to better the operation - Ability to effectively communicate with internal and external customers to collect accurate information and resolve conflicts - Demonstrate attention to detail in all aspects of work - Demonstrate a high degree of drive and determination - Constantly recommend service and product improvement to better the operation (duplicate) - Maintain complete knowledge of and comply with all departmental policies/service procedures/standards - Lead by example and foster mentoring relationships - Assist with responsibilities and duties in other departments and as assigned by management Note duplicate "Constantly recommend service and product improvement to better the operation" appears twice; we should keep only one. Also "Ability to effectively communicate..." is more of a skill but it's in responsibilities list; we keep. Now What You Will Need list: - Reading, writing and oral proficiency in the English language - The ability to communicate orally in Spanish is a plus - College degree preferred - 3-5 years previous experience in culinary/food and beverage department head positions, with experience in event and banquet food production - Thorough understanding of excellent service, labor control, maintenance, presentation and accounting - Proficiency in Microsoft Office applications and vendor ordering software - Ability to appropriately cost out recipes - Outstanding verbal and multi-tasking skills - Excellent knowledge of food, with experience in event production and execution - Ability to work alone without direct supervision - Ability to work varying schedules to reflect the business needs of the hotel, including evenings, weekends and holidays - Ability to continuously stand and walk for the majority of a workday - Ability to lift and carry up to 30 pounds frequently - Ability to push and pull up to 100 pounds frequently - Ability to negotiate varied floor surfaces continuously - Ability to carry over the shoulder occasionally Also there is "Who You Are" paragraph: we could treat as Qualifications. Let's extract that paragraph: "Your past experiences have led you to understand that there is an art + science to the how and what a hospitality operation professional is responsible for. Your balance of creative and organizational skills allows you to be both an artist as well as an air traffic controller. You are an intrinsically motivated individual who finds fulfillment in a full dining room with happy guests. You have the utmost respect for the ingredients and the process, striving to work directly with local farmers and artisans to obtain your ingredients at their height of freshness and peak of flavor. You understand the critical role you play in the hotel’s financial strategy and have a history of achieving cost effective solutions to daily kitchen management without sacrificing quality." We could put that under a section "Qualifications". But we already have Requirements; maybe we can merge Qualifications into Requirements? However the instruction allows Qualifications heading. We could have Qualifications section with that paragraph, and Requirements section with the bullet list. That would be four sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Requirements. That's okay if each has substantive content. We must avoid thin sections; each has decent content. Thus final sections: - About the role (company overview + THE ROLE) - Responsibilities (What You Will Do list) - Qualifications (Who You Are paragraph) - Requirements (What You Will Need list) We must not include Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Now craft HTML. We need to ensure proper escaping of special characters like + in "art + science". It's fine. We'll output:

    About the role

    Hotels done differently. It’s not just a slogan or catchphrase, it is who we are
