We need to output HTML fragment with sections: Overview (maybe not a heading? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). They say do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it). The posting includes Overview, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities, Required Documents, Advertised Salary, ADA, University Highlights, etc. We need to include sections only when posting has real, specific content. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Also remove Required Documents? That's application instruction; we should remove. Also remove ADA description? Might be considered boilerplate? It's about work environment; maybe keep? It's not a standard heading; but we could incorporate into a paragraph under Overview? Probably better to keep only substantive sections: Overview (maybe as

?), Responsibilities, Qualifications (including Minimum Qualifications and Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities), Pay (Advertised Salary), maybe Benefits? Not present. Schedule? Not present. University Highlights maybe not needed; it's boilerplate about university; could be considered fluff but maybe keep? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. University Highlights is not exactly those, but it's promotional; maybe we can keep as a paragraph? However they said prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine Overview and University Highlights into a description? But we need to preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we must keep the info about university highlights? It's substantive but maybe not required for job; but it's in posting. The instruction: remove boilerplate; university highlights might be considered boilerplate fluff. However it's not legal/EEO. It's descriptive of university; could be considered filler but it's specific info about USU. Might be okay to keep as a paragraph under Overview? But we need to preserve all substantive information; we could include it as a

after Overview. We need to use

for section headings: Responsibilities, Qualifications, Pay (if present). Possibly Overview not needed as heading? Could use

for Overview? The examples list includes About the role, Responsibilities, etc. Overview could be considered About the role. So we can use

Overview

with paragraph(s). Then

Responsibilities

with
    . Then

    Qualifications

    with maybe sub-sections? Could combine Minimum Qualifications and Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities into one
      or separate
        ? Better to have two
          under Qualifications? But we can just list all items in one
            . However we need to preserve distinction? Not required. We'll just list all qualifications and skills as bullet points. Pay:

            Pay

            with

            $45.00/hour

            . We should not include Schedule or Benefits. We need to remove Required Documents line, ADA description? The ADA paragraph is about work environment; maybe we can keep as a paragraph under Overview? It's not boilerplate but it's about job conditions. Could be considered relevant. However it's quite specific: "Employees work indoors and are protected from weather and/or contaminants, but not, necessarily, occasional temperature changes. The employee is regularly required to sit and often uses repetitive hand motions." That's substantive. We'll keep as a paragraph under Overview or maybe a separate section? Not a standard heading; we can include as part of Overview. University Highlights: we could keep as a paragraph under Overview as well. We must not include duplicated lines. Ensure we don't repeat. Now produce HTML fragment:

            Overview

            This position will support the research and evaluation activities related to multiple substance misuse prevention-focused projects conducted by an Extension faculty in Salt Lake County. This position is part-time and is telework eligible within the state of Utah. Telework outside of the state of Utah is subject to review and approval by the University prior to a job offer being extended.

            Employees work indoors and are protected from weather and/or contaminants, but not, necessarily, occasional temperature changes. The employee is regularly required to sit and often uses repetitive hand motions.

            Founded in 1888, Utah State University is Utah’s premier land-grant, public service university. As an R1 research institution, Utah State is dedicated to advancing knowledge and serving the public good through innovative research and scholarly activities that are grounded in reciprocal engagement with local, regional, and global communities. USU prepares students to be active, civically engaged leaders who are prepared to address critical societal challenges. Dedicated to providing a high-quality and affordable education, USU remains a leader in research, discovery, and public impact. USU enrolls over 29,800 students, both online and in person at locations throughout the state. Utah State’s 30 locations include a main campus in Logan, Utah, residential campuses in Price and Blanding, and six additional statewide campuses, along with education centers serving every county. USU educates students from all 50 states and more than 80 countries. For over 100 years, USU Extension has served and engaged Utahns, serving every county in the state. Competing at the NCAA Division I level in 16 sports, USU is a proud member of the Pac-12 Conference, officially joining on July 1, 2026. The Aggies capped a historic final season in the Mountain West by capturing nine combined regular-season and tournament titles in 2025–26, with five teams advancing to postseason play. This tradition of excellence extends to the classroom, where 232 student-athletes earned academic honors, and to the community, where USU ranked second nationally in Division I service hours, with nine teams placing in the top 10 for community service. Utah State is dedicated to fostering a community where all individuals feel respected, valued, and supported and where diversity of thought and culture are cultivated . We seek to recruit, hire, and retain people from all walks of life who will champion excellence in education, research, discovery, outreach, and service. We believe that promoting a strong sense of community and belonging empowers and engages all members of USU to thrive and be successful. Forbes recognized our commitment to employees when they named Utah State the best employer in Utah in 2023. Learn more about USU. The university provides a Dual Career Assistance Program to support careers for partners who are also seeking employment. Additionally, USU is committed to providing access and a reasonable accommodation for individuals with disabilities. To request a reasonable accommodation for a disability, contact the university’s ADA Coordinator in the Office of Human Resources at (435) 797-0122 or hr@usu.edu . updated 07/2026

            But that includes a lot of boilerplate about EEO etc. Actually the last part includes non-discrimination etc. That is boilerplate; we need to remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. The paragraph includes many EEO statements and contact info. That should be removed. Also the "updated 07/2026" etc. So we need to strip that. Thus we need to keep only the substantive overview: description of role, part-time telework, work environment, maybe university highlights? The university highlights includes many details about USU; that might be considered promotional but not boilerplate legal. However it's quite long; but it's substantive info about the university. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. It does not say to remove promotional university description. So we can keep it. But we must ensure we don't include the EEO statements. The paragraph after "Learn more about USU." includes Dual Career Assistance Program and ADA contact; that might be considered not EEO but still maybe okay. However the ADA contact is specific; could be kept. However the earlier part includes "Notice of Non-discrimination" etc which we must remove. So we need to cut off before that. Let's extract the relevant parts: Overview paragraph: "This position will support the research and evaluation activities related to multiple substance misuse prevention-focused projects conducted by an Extension faculty in Salt Lake County. This position is part-time and is telework eligible within the state of Utah. Telework outside of the state of Utah is subject to review and approval by the University prior to a job offer being extended." Work environment: "ADA Employees work indoors and are protected from weather and/or contaminants, but not, necessarily, occasional temperature changes. The employee is regularly required to sit and often uses repetitive hand motions." University Highlights: from "Founded in 1888, Utah State University is Utah’s premier land-grant, public service university." up to "Forbes recognized our commitment to employees when they named Utah State the best employer in Utah in 2023." That's before the Dual Career Assistance Program? Actually after that sentence, there is "Learn more about USU. The university provides a Dual Career Assistance Program to support careers for partners who are also seeking employment. Additionally, USU is committed to providing access and a reasonable accommodation for individuals with disabilities. To request a reasonable accommodation for a disability, contact the university’s ADA Coordinator in the Office of Human Resources at (435) 797-0122 or hr@usu.edu . updated 07/2026". That part might be considered not boilerplate but it's about accommodations; could be kept. However the "updated 07/2026" is metadata; maybe drop. The "Notice of Non-discrimination" and following legal text must be removed. Thus we will include up to the Forbes sentence, then maybe a short sentence about Dual Career Assistance Program? It's not required but could be kept as it's specific benefit. However the instruction says include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. Dual Career Assistance Program is a specific benefit; we could include under Benefits? But we don't have a Benefits heading unless we have content. We could incorporate into Overview paragraph. Simplify: Keep Overview paragraph (role description), Work environment paragraph, University highlights paragraph (up to Forbes). Then Responsibilities, Qualifications, Pay. Now Qualifications: Minimum Qualifications: "Graduate degree with at least 4 years of program evaluation or research experience. Experience designing and implementing project evaluation activities or research projects. Experience conducting data analyses for prevention-focused intervention evaluations. Experience reporting on qualitative and quantitative data, as well as mixed methods approaches." Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities list: many bullet-like sentences. We'll convert each to
          • . Let's list them: - Excellent project management skills, particularly the ability to work on multiple projects simultaneously and prioritize competing demands. - Exceptional listener and communicator who effectively conveys information verbally and in writing. - Strong organizational skills. - Attention to detail. - Ability to effectively prioritize and juggle multiple projects. - Ability to adapt to changing conditions or work assignments. - Excellent interpersonal abilities. - Cultural sensitivity and an ability to build rapport with a diverse workforce in multicultural settings. - Team player who excels at building trusting relationships with customers and co-workers. - Productive worker with solid work ethic who exerts effort in successfully completing tasks. - Dependable, responsible contributor committed to excellence and success. - Self-starter who takes initiative with minimal supervision. - Willingness to learn new skills or techniques. Now Responsibilities list: - Collaborate with the project director on developing evaluation methods across several prevention-related projects - Collaborate on preparing grant proposals and manuscripts - Create or adapt data collection tools and protocols for different projects - Assist with the preparation of IRB applications - Conduct data analyses - Develop data tracking and monitoring tools and provide train
