We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we have "Overview of the role" and "Essential Job Functions", "Hotel Performance", "Qualification Standards", "Physical Demands", "Mental Demands", "Benefits". Also maybe "About The Fenway Hotel" is description but not a required heading? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. 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") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We need to decide which sections to include. The posting includes: - About The Fenway Hotel (description) - Overview of the role (description) - Essential Job Functions (list) - Hotel Performance (description) - Qualification Standards (list) - Physical Demands (list) - Mental Demands (list) - Benefits (list) - Also mention "Disclaimer: Understand that banquets operate outside of the traditional 9-to-5 schedule..." This is schedule info. Should we include a Schedule section? The instruction says only create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections if posting actually states them. The posting does mention schedule: "Disclaimer: Understand that banquets operate outside of the traditional 9-to-5 schedule. Availability during holidays and weekends is often essential, especially during peak season. Expect a fast-paced environment with variable shifts — some days may require early mornings, others late nights. Flexibility and a strong work ethic are key." Also later "NOTICE: The hotel business functions seven days a week, 24 hours a day. All associates must realize this fact and always be aware that it may be necessary to move associates from their accustomed shift as business demands." So schedule info exists. Should we create a Schedule section? The instruction says "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." Since schedule is stated, we can include a Schedule section. However we also have Benefits section. Pay is not mentioned (no salary). So we omit Pay. We need to avoid boilerplate like EEO etc. Remove that. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include the description about The Fenway Hotel, overview, essential functions list, hotel performance, qualification standards list, physical demands list, mental demands list, benefits list, schedule info. We need to use

    for section headings. Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

      for prose. We need to decide which headings to use. The examples: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can adapt. We have: - About The Fenway Hotel: could be "About the Hotel" or "About The Fenway Hotel". But the instruction says use headings like About the role etc. Not strict but we can use "About the Hotel". However they said "use

      for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we can choose appropriate headings. For hotel description maybe "About The Fenway Hotel" is okay as it's similar to About the role. We'll use

      About The Fenway Hotel

      . - Overview of the role: could be "Overview of the role" or "Responsibilities". But we have separate Essential Job Functions list. Overview is prose. We'll use

      Overview of the role

      . - Essential Job Functions: could be "Responsibilities". Use

      Responsibilities

      with
      • . - Hotel Performance: maybe "Performance Expectations" but we can use

        Hotel Performance

        as prose. - Qualification Standards: could be "Qualifications". Use

        Qualifications

        with list. - Physical Demands: maybe "Physical Requirements". Use

        Physical Demands

        with list. - Mental Demands: maybe "Mental Requirements". Use

        Mental Demands

        with list. - Benefits:

        Benefits

        with list. - Schedule:

        Schedule

        with prose. We need to ensure we don't repeat job title. Not included. We need to remove boilerplate: EEO paragraph, disclaimer about notice? Actually the notice about 7 days/week is schedule info, we keep. The "Disclaimer: Understand that banquets operate outside of the traditional 9-to-5 schedule." is schedule. We'll incorporate. We need to preserve all substantive information: So we need to include the text about The Fenway Hotel, overview, essential functions list items, hotel performance paragraph, qualification standards list items, physical demands list items, mental demands list items, benefits list items, schedule paragraph. We need to format lists properly. Let's extract content.
