We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, no invented summary. Remove boilerplate like EEO, etc. Also remove duplicated lines, navigation, cookie, legal, EEO, scam-warning, application instructions. Must not include sections with placeholder like "commensurate with experience" etc. So we need to parse the posting. Let's extract content. First paragraph: "Work for Indiana Begin a fulfilling career with the State of Indiana by joining one of the largest employers in the state, offering a range of opportunities across 60+ agencies. At the state, you'll find competitive compensation, a robust benefits package and a commitment to work-life balance. Most importantly, you'll have the chance to make a real and measurable impact on the lives of Hoosiers across Indiana." That's generic intro; could be part of About the role? The instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to decide which sections to include based on content. We have "About The Department Of Child Services" then description. That could be "About the role" or maybe "About the department". The instruction says use headings like About the role. So we can put an

About the role

and include that description. Then "Role Overview" with details: Child Services Attorney provides legal advice... schedule Monday-Friday 37.5 hours a week. Position in Evansville, Indiana, serve Vanderburgh County etc. Also "Indiana accepts the Uniform Bar Exam! Follow this link..." That's maybe a link but we should not include application instructions? It's a link to learn about Uniform Bar Exam; maybe we can keep as part of role overview? It's not application instruction; it's info. We'll keep. Then "Salary" section: "This position traditionally starts at an annual salary of $75,010.00 but may be commensurate with education and job experience. Use our Compensation Calculator to view the total compensation package." The phrase "may be commensurate with education and job experience" is somewhat vague but still specific? It says may be commensurate with education and job experience. That's not a placeholder like "commensurate with experience" but it's still somewhat vague. However we need to include Pay section only if posting actually states them. It does state a starting salary. So we can include Pay section with that sentence. However we should avoid filler like "commensurate with education and job experience" maybe okay. The instruction: "never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. 'commensurate with experience', 'not specified', 'N/A', 'varies', 'TBD')". The phrase "may be commensurate with education and job experience" is similar to "commensurate with experience". Might be considered filler. But we also have a concrete number: $75,010.00. So we can include that. The instruction says never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. If we include the heading Pay and then include the sentence that contains both a concrete number and a vague phrase, is that considered filler? Probably okay because we have real content. We'll include. Then "Responsibilities Include A Day in the Life:" followed by list of duties. That's responsibilities. Then "Credentials What You'll Need for Success:" includes Doctorate of Jurisprudence, Indiana Bar Admission etc. That's Requirements/Qualifications. Could split into Requirements (education/licensure) and Qualifications (skills). The instruction allows sections like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We'll decide. We have "Additional Qualifications Strong legal research, writing, and litigation skills.Strong communication and public speaking skills.Ability to apply relevant statutes, case law, and rules.Able to perform essential functions with or without reasonable accommodation." That's skills/qualifications. Then "Supervisory Responsibilities/Direct Reports This role may be utilized in a supervisory capacity based on agency needs." That's maybe part of Responsibilities or Qualifications. Could include under Responsibilities. Then "Benefits Of Employment With The State Of Indiana" with list of benefits. That's Benefits section. Then there is EEO etc which we must remove. Also there is "Exempt employees may work more than 75 hours in a pay period without additional compensation..." That's about overtime; could be part of Schedule? Actually schedule is Monday-Friday 37.5 hours a week. The exempt note is about overtime; maybe we can include under Schedule or Responsibilities? Probably not needed. We must not include application instructions. There's a link to Uniform Bar Exam; that's not application instruction but informational; we can keep. We must not repeat job title as heading. No job title appears as heading. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; none present. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Thus produce something like:

But maybe we should combine into one

or multiple. The instruction: Use

for prose. So we can have multiple

elements. Then

Role Overview

maybe not in list of allowed headings? The allowed headings list includes About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Role Overview is not in that list. However we could treat Role Overview as part of About the role. The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but says use those for those sections. It might be safer to stick to those headings. So we should map content to those headings. Thus we need sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have content for About the role (intro + department description). Responsibilities (list). Requirements (education/licensure). Qualifications (maybe additional qualifications). Skills (maybe strong legal research etc). Benefits (list). Pay (salary). Schedule (Monday-Friday 37.5 hours a week). Also we have location (Evansville, Indiana) maybe part of About the role. We must not create sections with filler. Ensure each section has real specific content. Let's extract specifics.

Exempt employees may work more than 75 hours in a pay period without additional compensation and must report a minimum of 75 hours per pay period of work hours and/or paid leave taken to receive their base biweekly salary.

Qualifications (maybe Additional Qualifications): - Strong legal research, writing, and litigation skills. - Strong communication and public speaking skills. - Ability to apply relevant statutes, case law, and rules. - Able to perform essential functions with or without reasonable accommodation. Skills: Could be same as Qualifications? Might duplicate. Perhaps we treat Qualifications as education/licensure, Skills as abilities. But we already have those. Let's assign: - Requirements: Education & licensure. - Qualifications: Additional qualifications (maybe supervisory capacity? Actually supervisory responsibility is separate). - Skills: Strong legal research, writing, litigation skills; communication/public speaking; ability to apply statutes; ability to perform essential functions. But we have overlapping. To avoid duplication, we could combine Qualifications and Skills into one section, but we need to follow instruction: we can include only sections that have real content. It's okay to have both Qualifications and Skills if they have distinct content. Let's see if we can differentiate. Qualifications could be: "Supervisory Responsibilities/Direct
