We need to output HTML fragment with sections: h3 for headings (About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We need to include only sections that have real specific content. The posting includes: Job Summary (maybe About the role), Job Responsibilities, Job Requirements, Benefits (list of benefits), Pay (starting wage), maybe Schedule (operating December through April, full time hours available). Also there is "Housing Availability: Yes" maybe part of Benefits? Could be included in Benefits or other. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: EEO, legal, application instructions, etc. Also remove "To Learn More, please review the Benefits Eligibility Summary". Remove "Hiring for our seasonal positions occurs on a rolling basis..." maybe not needed? It's not a section heading but could be part of About the role? Might be considered filler but it's substantive? It's about hiring timeline; maybe we can include in About the role paragraph. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include details: location, description, operating dates, compensation, benefits list, responsibilities, requirements, preferred experience, etc. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not needed. We need to decide which sections to include: About the role (maybe combine job summary and description), Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe combine Job Requirements and Preferred Experience?), Qualifications (maybe same as Requirements?), Skills (maybe separate?), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to avoid duplication. Let's extract content. From posting: Intro paragraph: "Create Your Experience of a Lifetime! Come work and play in the mountains! Whether it’s your first-time seeing snow or you were born on the slopes, joining our team means discovering (or re-discovering!) a passion for the outdoors while building lifelong connections with teammates and guests from around the world. With 40+ resorts across 3 continents, you can join our team for a season or stay to build a career. From day one, you'll receive some of the highest compensation rates in the industry, free pass(es) along with free ski and snowboard lessons, 40% retail discounts, the chance to grow through Epic Service - our leading training and development experience, and wellness benefits to fuel your success." That's a general company pitch. Could be part of About the role. Then: "Hiring for our seasonal positions occurs on a rolling basis. Applications will be accepted until December 15th or until the positions are filled (whichever is first)." This is about hiring timeline; maybe include in About the role or separate? Not a section heading but could be part of About. Then list of employee benefits: "Employee Benefits Ski/Mountain Perks! Free passes for employees, employee discounted lift tickets for friends and family AND free ski lessons MORE employee discounts on lodging, food, gear, and mountain shuttles 401(k) Retirement Plan Employee Assistance Program Excellent training and professional development Referral Program" Then "Job Summary To Learn More, please review the Benefits Eligibility Summary We are seeking a motivated and organized Culinary Assistant General Manager (AGM) to help lead back-of-house operations at Snowshoe Thompsons, a quick-service cafeteria located at Kirkwood’s Timber Creek base area. Open for breakfast and lunch during the winter season, this high-volume, family-focused restaurant serves skiers of all levels—especially beginners and those attending ski school. This role is perfect for a hands-on kitchen leader who thrives in a fast-paced, team-driven environment and is committed to food quality, cleanliness, and efficient service. Snowshoe Thompsons is located in the Timber Creek area of Kirkwood Mountain Resort, adjacent to ski school and beginner terrain. Operating December through April, the restaurant features a cafeteria-style service model with hot food stations, grab-and-go options, and a full bar. Its open-concept layout and proximity to lessons make it a convenient, high-traffic destination for families and newer skiers." Then "Job Specifications Starting Wage: Starting at $25.00/h Employment Type: Winter Seasonal 2026/2027 Shift Type: Full Time hours available Minimum Age: At least 18 years of age Housing Availability: Yes" Then responsibilities list. Then "Job Requirements 2–4 years of culinary leadership experience, preferably in high-volume or quick-service environments. Strong understanding of food safety protocols and kitchen best practices. Serve Safe Manager Certification (or ability to obtain within 30 days of hire). Excellent communication, time management, and multitasking skills. Proficiency in kitchen inventory systems and basic ordering procedures. Ability to work early mornings, weekends, holidays, and inclement weather days. Physical ability to stand for extended periods and lift up to 50lbs." Then "Preferred Experience with breakfast service, cafeteria-style kitchen workflows, or resort food service. Team-first attitude and ability to lead by example in a fast-paced setting. Friendly, guest-conscious mindset with attention to family-friendly service." Then "The expected pay range is Starting at $25.00/h. This is the pay range we reasonably expect to pay for this position. Individual compensation decisions are based on a variety of factors." Then boilerplate about redaction, EEO, etc. Remove. Thus we need sections: - About the role: combine intro company pitch, hiring timeline, job summary description (maybe also location, operating dates). Could be multiple paragraphs. - Responsibilities: list from responsibilities. - Requirements: combine Job Requirements and Preferred Experience? Could separate Requirements and Preferred Experience but we only have headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We could put Requirements under

Requirements

and maybe Skills under

Skills

for the preferred experience? But better to follow instruction: Prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine Requirements and Preferred Experience into one Requirements section. Or we could have Requirements and Skills separate: Requirements = mandatory, Skills = preferred. But we have limited headings; we can use both. We need to include Pay section: Starting wage $25/h. Schedule section: Operating December through April, Full Time hours available, Winter Seasonal 2026/2027, Shift Type: Full Time hours available. Also mention early mornings, weekends, holidays, inclement weather days. Benefits section: list of benefits. We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not include Job ID etc. We must output only HTML fragment. Let's craft. Structure:
