County Extension Director

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: h3 for headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections where there is real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate like navigation, EEO, etc. Must not include placeholder sections like Pay if not specified. The posting includes "Anticipated Hiring Range Minimum $50,000 commensurate with education and experience". That's pay info. So we can include Pay section with that detail. Schedule: "Work Schedule 8:00 am - 5:00 pm, evenings and weekends as required". So include Schedule. Benefits: list given. So include Benefits. Responsibilities: many duties. Requirements: education/experience etc. Skills: list of skills. Qualifications maybe overlapping with requirements. We need to decide sections. The instruction: use h3 for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We should include sections that have content. Likely we will have About the role (overview), Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Possibly Qualifications could be merged with Requirements. But we can include Qualifications if distinct. The posting includes "Minimum Experience/Education" and "Preferred Administrative and supervisory experience". That's qualifications. Could treat as Requirements. We'll include Requirements (education/experience) and Skills (skills). Also maybe "Other Duties And Responsibilities" duplicates responsibilities. We'll combine. We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience" as placeholder? Actually pay includes that phrase but it's actual info: "Anticipated Hiring Range Minimum $50,000 commensurate with education and experience". That's specific enough; we keep. We must not include duplicated lines. We'll need to extract substantive info. Let's parse posting: - Overview: "Are you looking for a rewarding career that will let you give back to your community? NC State Extension extends research-based knowledge to all North Carolinians, helping them transform science into everyday solutions that improve their lives and grow our state. We are the model of excellence in non-formal, research-based education that advances agriculture, the environment, human health and well-being, youth and communities, while creating prosperity for all North Carolinians.

So we need to include supervisory number and time split maybe under Responsibilities or a separate "Supervision" but not in allowed headings. Could incorporate into Responsibilities. We'll create sections:

About the role

with overview paragraph.

Responsibilities

with

• items covering duties.

  Requirements

  with education/experience requirements.

  Skills

  with skills list.

  Benefits

  with
  • .

    Pay

    with

    containing the hiring range.

    Schedule

    with

    containing schedule. We might also include "Qualifications" but we already have Requirements. Could add Qualifications for preferred qualifications. But to avoid thin sections, maybe combine preferred into Requirements or Skills. However the instruction: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we can keep Requirements covering both minimum and preferred qualifications. Skills separate. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Now we need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. Not include. We must output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. Let's craft. We need to preserve all substantive info: ensure we include details like "NC State Extension extends research-based knowledge..." etc. We'll write About the role paragraph combining the two paragraphs about mission and teaching. Responsibilities: need to list each duty as
