Dean - School of Engineering

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We need to parse the job posting. The posting includes: - Title: Dean - School of Engineering The Citadel (but we don't repeat title as heading) - Job no: 496921 (metadata, drop) - Work type: Full Time Permanent - Faculty (maybe schedule? but it's full time permanent; schedule could be "Full Time". However schedule section only if posting actually states schedule. It says "Work type: Full Time Permanent - Faculty". That's schedule info. So we could include a Schedule section with "Full Time Permanent - Faculty". But we need to avoid filler like "not specified". This is specific. - Location: Charleston (maybe not needed; but could be part of About the role? Not a heading.) - Categories: Engineering (maybe not needed) - The body includes description: The Citadel invites nominations... etc. We need to extract sections: About the role: Could be a paragraph summarizing the role: The Dean of the School of Engineering, also holds the Col. Louis S. Le Tellier Chair in Engineering. Provide overview. Responsibilities: The Dean oversees daily operations, coordinates, supports, advances educational and scholarly activities, leads fundraising and development efforts, works with faculty across college, etc. Requirements: Required qualifications list. Qualifications: Preferred qualifications list. Skills: Could be derived from required/preferred like communication, interpersonal, fundraising, etc. But we might combine into Skills section if there is explicit list. The posting includes "Evidence of excellent communication, listening, and interpersonal skills." "Demonstrated ability to build strong collaborations and relationships". Also "Professional registration." etc. Could make Skills section. Benefits: Not mentioned explicitly. No benefits details. So we should not include Benefits. Pay: "Compensation is competitive and commensurate with credentials and experience." That's vague, not specific numbers. The instruction says: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD"). So we should NOT include Pay section because it's just "competitive and commensurate". That's placeholder. Schedule: We have "Work type: Full Time Permanent - Faculty". That's specific enough. So we can include Schedule section with that. We also might include a short paragraph for metadata like Job ID? Not needed. We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details from the posting, but we can reformat into sections. Must not lose any substantive info. Thus we need to include all the descriptive paragraphs about The Citadel, rankings, programs, faculty numbers, students, new facility, etc. Where to place them? Probably in About the role or Responsibilities? The instructions: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we have predefined headings we can use. We need to decide which content goes where. About the role: Could include overview of the position, the chair, the mission, the college description, rankings, programs, faculty, students, new facility. Responsibilities: Specific duties: oversees daily operations, coordinates, supports, advances educational and scholarly activities through collaborative leadership; leads fundraising and development efforts in partnership with foundation and advisory board; works effectively with faculty across college; committed to excellent teaching, high-quality scholarly activity, professional development. Requirements: Required qualifications list (the bullet points after "Required qualifications:"). Qualifications: Preferred qualifications list (after "Preferred qualifications:"). Skills: Could include communication, listening, interpersonal, collaboration, fundraising, grant securing, professional registration, etc. But some of those are already in required/preferred. To avoid duplication, we could still include them but ensure we don't lose info. However the instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; we can duplicate across sections? It might be okay but better to allocate each piece to appropriate section without losing. Since required and preferred already cover many skills, we could put communication etc under Skills, but then we would be moving them from required/preferred. That would be summarizing away detail? Not if we keep them. But we need to ensure we don't lose any detail; we can keep them in both places if needed. However duplication may be considered okay as long as we preserve. But better to keep them where they appear: required qualifications list includes "Evidence of excellent communication, listening, and interpersonal skills." and "Demonstrated ability to build strong collaborations and relationships with internal and external constituencies." Those are skills. Preferred includes "Demonstrated success as an outstanding fundraiser..." etc. So we could put those under Skills section, but then we would be removing them from Required/Preferred sections, which would lose the classification as required/preferred. The instruction does not require us to keep the classification; just preserve all substantive information. So we could move them to Skills and still preserve the info. However we might lose the nuance that some are required vs preferred. But the instruction does not require preserving that distinction; just preserve all substantive information. So moving them is okay as long as we keep the text. But we also have other required qualifications like "An earned doctorate..." etc. Those are not skills but qualifications. So we keep them in Requirements. Preferred qualifications list includes many items; we could move them to Skills or Qualifications. Since we already have a Qualifications section for preferred qualifications, we can keep them there. Thus: - About the role: paragraph describing the role, the chair, the college, rankings, programs, faculty, students, new facility. - Responsibilities: bullet list of duties: oversees daily operations; coordinates, supports, advances educational and scholarly activities through collaborative, empowering, relationship-centered leadership; leads fundraising and development efforts in partnership with The Citadel Foundation staff and the School's Advisory Board; works effectively and collaboratively with faculty across all of the College's academic units; remains committed to excellent teaching, high-quality scholarly activity, and professional development in a student-centered environment. - Requirements: list of required qualifications (the bullet points after "Required qualifications:"). - Qualifications: list of preferred qualifications (the bullet points after "Preferred qualifications:"). - Skills: maybe we can combine communication etc but we already have them in required/preferred. To avoid duplication, we could omit Skills section if we feel it's redundant. But the instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. If we already have required and preferred covering skills, we could skip Skills. However we might still want to include a Skills section for items like "Professional registration" etc. But those are in preferred qualifications. So we could skip Skills. - Schedule: "Full Time Permanent - Faculty". Could be a short paragraph. - Benefits: none, omit. - Pay: omit because it's vague. Thus output sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Schedule. We need to use

for each section heading. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

  for prose. We must not repeat the job title as a heading. Not include Job ID etc. We must preserve all substantive information. Let's extract all substantive info from the posting. Let's copy the posting text and parse.
