We need to output HTML fragment only, with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info. Let's parse the posting. Content: - Intro: "Part-Time / Regular $17.00 - $25.00 Hourly The YMCA of Greater New York is here for all New Yorkers — to empower youth, improve health, and strengthen community. Founded in 1852, today the Y serves a diverse population of more than half a million New Yorkers who learn, grow, and thrive through programs and services at our 24 branches. Community is the cornerstone of the Y. Together, we connect active, engaged New Yorkers to build stronger communities. To help fulfill our mission, we cultivate a culture of learning, leading, and collaboration to enhance community impact. Through our talented staff and “LEAP” career framework (Leadership, Empowerment, Accountability, Personal Growth), we are committed to a people-first approach that fosters trust, inclusion, growth, and development for all. Being part of the YMCA Afterschool staff team is a deeply rewarding job where you support children’s learning, help build strong connections, and have a positive impact on so many in your community. At Y Afterschool, we will create a safe and fun space for kids to learn and grow, lead creative activities, and help them develop valuable skills. This is an opportunity to make a real difference and gain invaluable leadership and interpersonal experience." That's about the organization and role; could be "About the role" or "About the organization". We'll use

About the role

with paragraphs. - Then: "The Staten Island South Shore YMCA is seeking a Content Specialist. Under the supervision of the Program Director, the Content Specialist is responsible for selecting and managing program content and curricula for up to three COMPASS programs. The ideal candidate will oversee and support program implementation, provide coaching and training to program staff, and contribute to overall program quality through direct observation and supervision." That's also role description; could be part of About the role. - Then "Key Responsibilities:" list bullet points. We need to extract responsibilities as
  • . List: - Select and manage content across all required program areas. This may also include creating new curricula and lesson plans when necessary. - Oversee lesson plan implementation and support Activity Specialists, Group Leaders, and Inclusion Specialists to ensure effective implementation of lesson plans. - Coach staff by providing targeted strategies and techniques to enhance lesson facilitation, classroom management, and behavior support. - Review content being shared to ensure it is in alignment with the high-quality standards of the Y Afterschool Programs. - Provide professional development for program staff to improve overall program quality. - Support monitoring and evaluating program activities to ensure a safe, high-quality, and positive environment for youth development. - Assist participants in actively achieving an increased comprehension and retention of specific subject material and improved academic skills in designated areas. - Help participants develop necessary study skills for academic success. - Identify participants having trouble; provide encouragement and alternative explanations of subject material. - Work with the Program Director and school staff to understand the academic expectations of the day school, and develop activities, assignments, practice tests, and strategies accordingly. - Work with participants and staff to help students develop a high level of motivation in academic areas and positive attitudes toward learning and studying by acknowledging student efforts as well as their progress and achievements. - Work cooperatively with Afterschool staff, professional staff, teachers, other programs, and school staff. - Promote an inclusive, welcoming, and respectful environment that embraces the diversity of all participants. - Create and maintain a strength-based, youth-focused atmosphere that is consistent and sensitive to the needs of participants with learning, emotional, or behavioral differences. - Maintain accurate program documentation (sign-in/sign-out forms, behavior reports, and incident reports, as appropriate). - Serve as a positive role model for participants. - Understand and communicate the YMCA’s core values and the goals of the Y Afterschool Program to participants and caregivers. - Actively participate in training sessions, designated meetings, and special events. - Adhere to all Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS), Department of Health (DOH), YMCA of Greater New York, school partner, and funder standards, expectations, and regulations. That's many items; we will list them. - Then "Desired Skills & Experience:" list bullet points. List: - Bachelor’s Degree in Education or a related field required. - Master’s Degree preferred. - Minimum of two (2) years of experience working with children under the age of 13. - Minimum of one (1) year of experience in a supervisory/oversight position, including management and development of program content, staff supervision, training, and coaching. - Experience in developing education-based curriculum/lesson plans. - General knowledge of Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. We need to decide sections: Could be "Requirements" and "Qualifications" and "Skills". The instruction says use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We need to decide which sections to include based on content. We have: - About the role: we have description. - Responsibilities: we have list. - Requirements: maybe education and experience requirements. - Qualifications: maybe similar; but we can combine? The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section? But they are separate headings; we could include both if they have distinct content. However we have education and experience; could be "Requirements". Could also have "Skills" for the Microsoft Office etc. But we could also put skills under Requirements. Better: Use sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits. Pay: we have pay range "$17.00 - $25.00 Hourly" mentioned at start. So we should include Pay section with that info. Schedule: we have "Part-Time / Regular". That's schedule info (part-time). So we can include Schedule section. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not include headings with filler like "not specified". All have content. Now we need to format. We must not include any markdown fences. Just raw HTML. We'll produce something like:

    About the role

    ... paragraphs ...

    We need to preserve all substantive info; we can split into multiple paragraphs if needed. Let's craft About the role paragraph(s). Combine the intro paragraphs. First paragraph: "Part-Time / Regular $17.00 - $25.00 Hourly The YMCA of Greater New York is here for all New Yorkers — to empower youth, improve health, and strengthen community. Founded in 1852, today the Y serves a diverse population of more than half a million New Yorkers who learn, grow, and thrive through programs and services at our 24 branches. Community is the cornerstone of the Y. Together, we connect active, engaged New Yorkers to build stronger communities. To help fulfill our mission, we cultivate a culture of learning, leading, and collaboration to enhance community impact. Through our talented staff and “LEAP” career framework (Leadership, Empowerment, Accountability, Personal Growth), we are committed to a people-first approach that fosters trust, inclusion, growth, and development for all." Second paragraph: "Being part of the YMCA Afterschool staff team is a deeply rewarding job where you support children’s learning, help build strong connections, and have a positive impact on so many in your community. At Y Afterschool, we will create a safe and fun space for kids to learn and grow, lead creative activities, and help them develop valuable skills. This is an opportunity to make a real difference and gain invaluable leadership and interpersonal experience." Third paragraph: "The Staten Island South Shore YMCA is seeking a Content Specialist. Under the supervision of the Program Director, the Content Specialist is responsible for selecting and managing program content and curricula for up to three COMPASS programs. The ideal candidate will oversee and support program implementation, provide coaching and training to program staff, and contribute to overall program quality through direct observation and supervision." That covers. Now Responsibilities:

    Responsibilities

      ... each liability as
    • ...
    Now Requirements: We'll include education and experience requirements. Possibly also "Minimum of two (2) years of experience working with children under the age of 13." and "Minimum of one (1) year of experience in a supervisory/oversight position..." and "Bachelor’s Degree in Education or a related field required." "Master’s Degree preferred." "Experience in developing education-based curriculum/lesson plans." That could be under Requirements. Now Skills: "General knowledge of Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint." Could also include maybe other skills? That's it. Now Benefits: The paragraph about benefits: "The YMCA of Greater New York offers a variety of benefits to its staff members, including retirement benefits , medical benefits, paid time off, free YMCA membership, and more! Benefit eligibility is determined by an individual’s employment status (i.e., full-time or part-time), tenure, and/or the number of hours scheduled to work." We should preserve that exactly but maybe trim extra spaces. Keep as is. Now Pay: "$17.00 - $25.00 Hourly". Could phrase as "Pay: $17.00 - $25.00 per hour". We'll keep as given. Now Schedule: "Part-Time / Regular". Could phrase as "Schedule: Part-Time / Regular". We'll keep. Now ensure we don't include any boilerplate like "Click here for more information." That's under Benefits? Actually after Benefits sentence: "Click here for more information." That's a link/instruction; we should remove as it's application instructions? It's not exactly application instruction but it's a link; we should remove as per instruction to remove application instructions and boilerplate. So we will omit that sentence. Also remove "How to Apply:" section entirely. Also remove "Job ID req3284 Employment Type Part-Time / Location ..." etc. Also remove "EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER ♦ DRUGFREE WORKPLACE Auxiliary aids and services are available upon request to individuals with disabilities". Remove. Now produce final HTML. Check that we didn't miss any substantive info: The responsibilities list is long; we need to ensure we didn't omit any. Let's copy each bullet exactly as in text. From posting: Key Responsibilities: Select and manage content across all required program areas. This may also include creating new curricula and lesson plans when necessary. Oversee lesson plan implementation and support Activity Specialists, Group Leaders, and Inclusion Specialists to ensure effective implementation of lesson plans. Coach staff by providing targeted strategies and techniques to enhance lesson facilitation, classroom management, and behavior support. Review content being shared to ensure it is in alignment with the high-quality standards of the Y Afterschool Programs. Provide professional development for program staff to improve overall program quality.
