We need to produce HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes: Position Summary (maybe About the role). Essential Functions And Responsibilities (Responsibilities). Requirements (maybe Requirements). Skills (maybe Skills). Also mentions Conditions of Employment (background check) maybe part of Requirements. Work Environment maybe part of About the role? Not a specific heading. No explicit Pay, Benefits, Schedule. So we should not create those sections. We need to use

for section headings. 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: "It's fun to work in a company where people truly BELIEVE in what they're doing! We're committed to bringing passion and customer focus to the business." That's maybe fluff but it's substantive? It's more like marketing; but we can keep as part of About the role? It's not boilerplate like EEO. It's okay to keep. "Please Note: While assigned hours are generally consistent from week to week, there are no guaranteed minimal hours and positional needs will vary depending on Chaplain availability and Client requirements." This is schedule info but not guaranteed minimal hours; we could include as a note under About the role or maybe a Schedule section? The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state something about hours: "While assigned hours are generally consistent from week to week, there are no guaranteed minimal hours and positional needs will vary depending on Chaplain availability and Client requirements." That's schedule-related info. Should we create a Schedule section? The instruction says: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state something about hours, so we could include a Schedule section with that note. However they also say: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could incorporate schedule note into About the role or Responsibilities. But schedule is separate concept. I'd include a Schedule section with that note as a

    . That seems appropriate. Benefits: none mentioned. Pay: none. So we omit those. We need to not repeat job title as heading. The job title is not given explicitly but maybe "Chaplains". We'll not add heading for that. We need to include metadata like Job ID etc? Not present. We need to preserve all substantive information: include Position Summary, Essential Functions And Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Conditions of Employment, Work Environment, and the note about hours. We need to format: Use

    for section headings. For each section, we can have heading then content. We need to decide which headings correspond to content: - About the role: could include the introductory fluff and Position Summary. Also maybe the note about hours? But we decided schedule separate. - Responsibilities: Essential Functions And Responsibilities. - Requirements: Requirements paragraph. - Skills: Skills paragraph. - Schedule: note about hours. - Work Environment: maybe as part of About the role? Could be its own section but no heading for Work Environment in list; but we could treat as About the role? The instruction only lists allowed headings; we cannot create other headings like Work Environment. So we must fold Work Environment into one of the allowed headings, perhaps About the role or Responsibilities. Since it's about where work occurs, maybe About the role. - Conditions of Employment (background check) could be part of Requirements. Thus we will have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Schedule. We need to ensure we don't create empty sections. Now we need to extract content. Let's parse the posting: "It's fun to work in a company where people truly BELIEVE in what they're doing! We're committed to bringing passion and customer focus to the business." That's introductory fluff. "Please Note: While assigned hours are generally consistent from week to week, there are no guaranteed minimal hours and positional needs will vary depending on Chaplain availability and Client requirements." That's schedule note. "Position Summary Chaplains are the frontline staff fulfilling the mission and Christian ministry of MCHAP, by using their gifts and talents to serve company employees and their immediate families. Part-Time, Binghamton/Waverly/Elmira, NY" That's position summary. "Essential Functions And Responsibilities" then a long list of duties. We need to turn that into
    • items. We must preserve all substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep each duty as a list item, but we can combine sentences? The instruction: Use
      • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should break the paragraph into list items for each duty. The original is a long paragraph with many duties separated by periods. We can split into items at each sentence that starts with a verb. But we must not lose detail. We'll create list items for each distinct duty. Let's enumerate duties from the text: - Serves as a messenger and conveyor of faith, mission, and purpose. - Interacts with companies, their employees, and the community in a manner that exhibits character through personal and spiritual disciplines. - Ministry Makes regular visits to company worksites (usually weekly) to interact with employees and build relationships of trust and friendship motivated by Christian faith. - Visits employees or immediate family members wherever care can be expressed and help given: hospitals, nursing homes, funeral homes, family residences, or other sites. - May provide confidential pastoral discussions for problem issues of employees and their immediate family members including, but not limited to family matters, divorce, serious illness, care of aging parents, death and grief recovery, parenting, financial situations that may include debt discussions, budgeting, and other life issues related to financial stress, as well as any other personal issues. - Provides referral service and acts as coordinator for specialized assistance to employees and/or immediate family members with specific needs. - May assist in the planning, conduct or attend funerals for employees or immediate family members, including follow-up support and encouragement to immediate family members during the grief period. - May make jail visits to employees and immediate family members. - Works with companies to serve notifications of death and serious injuries to families and other employees, encouraging those impacted by various tragedies. - May provide post-termination care for laid-off or terminated employees in order to foster a smooth transition to another work environment. - May facilitate, but not lead, spiritual enrichment activities, as an employee-sponsored and led activity will usually be more fruitful than a chaplain led event. - Provides, as appropriate/requested, literature and other resources to assist company employees with life issues. - Represents companies to clients/customers where it would be appropriate to ministry services involved (i.e., serious illness, accidents, traumatic events, and funerals). - Participates in new employee orientation to explain the Employee Care Service and the role of the Chaplain Team. - With Executive Director of Operations (EDO) permission, responds positively and assertively to other duties and services requested by executive leadership of companies, within the scope of the Letter of Agreement between MCHAP Chaplains and the company. That's the duties. Now Requirements paragraph: "Requirements Has ability to work as member of interdisciplinary group and in an interfaith setting. Possesses ability to accept different lifestyles, cultures, beliefs, and values. Skills to effectively listen and interact with clients, employees, and their families. Skills to deliver community presentations. Skills to deal effectively with family members and staff under stressful circumstances. High regard for the dignity and worth of clients, employees and their families. Skills to cope with stressful situations and able to document accurately according to standards. Spiritual maturity and commitment to a Christian lifestyle and to MCHAPs Ministry values. Incorporates Christian values and beliefs in day-to-day activities and in the performance of job duties. Has a fundamental understanding of the Holy Bible and its proper application. Attests to a saving faith in Jesus Christ and actively participates in a biblically based church.

Ability to understand and learn new technology programs. Must have active state driver’s license and state minimum auto insurance (state(s) where servicing clients). Conditions of Employment Must pass a pre-employment background check." We need to separate Requirements and Skills? The posting lumps many skill-like statements under Requirements. But we have a separate Skills heading allowed. We could split: Requirements: things like ability to work as member..., ability to accept..., high regard..., spiritual maturity..., fundamental understanding..., attests..., etc. Skills: skills to effectively listen..., skills to deliver..., skills to deal..., skills to cope..., demonstrated ability..., demonstrated excellent oral..., demonstrated skill..., demonstrated skill..., demonstrated computer proficiency..., ability to understand..., etc. Also Conditions of Employment (background check) maybe part of Requirements. We need to decide what goes where. The instruction: Use

        for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have both Requirements and Skills sections. We need to parse the text into those categories. The text after "Requirements" includes many statements that start with "Has ability", "Possesses ability", "Skills to", "High regard", "Skills to cope", "Spiritual maturity", "Incorporates", "Has a fundamental understanding", "Attests", "Demonstrated ability", "Ability to make", "Demonstrated excellent oral", "Ability to maintain", "Demonstrated skill", "Ability to identify", "Demonstrated skill", "Demonstrated computer proficiency", "Ability to understand", "Must have active state driver’s license", "Conditions of Employment Must pass a pre-employment background check." We can treat the first group (Has ability, Possesses ability, High regard, Spiritual maturity, Incorporates, Has a fundamental understanding, Attests) as Requirements. Then the group starting with "Skills to", "Skills to cope", "Demonstrated ability", "Ability to make", "Demonstrated excellent oral", "Ability to maintain", "Demonstrated skill", "Ability to identify", "Demonstrated skill", "Demonstrated computer proficiency", "Ability to understand", "Must have active state driver’s license", "Conditions of Employment..." as Skills. But some of those are also abilities. However we need to split reasonably. Alternatively, we could put all under Requirements and leave Skills empty (but we must not create empty sections). So we need to allocate. Let's define: Requirements section content: - Has ability to work as member of interdisciplinary group and in an interfaith setting. - Possesses ability to accept different lifestyles, cultures, beliefs, and values. - High regard for the dignity and worth of clients, employees and their families. - Spiritual maturity and commitment to a Christian lifestyle and to MCHAPs Ministry values. - Incorporates Christian values and beliefs in day-to-day activities and in the performance of job duties. - Has a fundamental understanding of the Holy Bible and its proper application. - Attests to a saving faith in Jesus Christ and actively participates in a biblically based church. - Must have active state driver’s license and state minimum auto insurance (state(s) where servicing clients). - Conditions of Employment: Must pass a pre-employment background check. Skills section content: - Skills to effectively listen and interact with clients, employees, and their families. - Skills to deliver community presentations
