We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. Must preserve all substantive info.
Let's parse the posting.
Content:
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. 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)."
Then "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 Alpine/Freestyle/Snowboard Competition coaches work to provide quality ski/ride coaching to athletes looking to compete at the local, regional and national level. Competition coaches focus on the overall development of athletes in a safe and fun environment while upholding all aspects of the Skier Responsibility Code, Park SMART, and Company guidelines. We are an in-house team, with foundation support and tremendous growth opportunities."
Then "Job Specifications Starting Wage: $20.00/hr - $23.00/hr Employment Type: Winter Seasonal 2026/2027 Shift Type: Part Time hours available Minimum Age: At least 18 years of age Housing Availability: No"
Then "Job Responsibilities" list bullet points.
Then "Job Requirements" list bullet points.
Then "Preferred Skills" list bullet points.
Then "The expected pay range is $20.00/hr - $23.00/hr. This is the pay range we reasonably expect to pay for this position. Individual compensation decisions are based on a variety of factors."
Then some legal stuff: "In completing this application, and when submitting related documentation, applicants may redact information that identifies their age, date of birth, and/or dates of attendance at or graduation from an educational institution. We follow all federal, state, and local laws including restrictions on child/minor labor. Minors hired into this position will not be asked or permitted to engage in any activities restricted to adult workers. Vail Resorts is an equal opportunity employer. Qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, protected veteran status or any other status protected by applicable law."
Then "Requisition ID 517654 Reference Date: 09/16/2026 Job Code Function: Competition Services" - we drop.
We need to produce sections: maybe About the role (intro), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications? The posting has Job Summary, Job Specifications (wage, employment type, shift, min age, housing), Job Responsibilities, Job Requirements, Preferred Skills, Benefits.
We need to decide which headings to use: About the role (intro), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications (maybe Job Specifications?), Skills (Preferred Skills), Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We must only include sections when posting has real specific content. So we need to extract content for each.
Let's gather:
About the role: The intro paragraph(s) describing role, mission, etc. Could combine first paragraph and maybe job summary. The "Job Summary" paragraph: "Alpine/Freestyle/Snowboard Competition coaches work to provide quality ski/ride coaching to athletes looking to compete at the local, regional and national level. Competition coaches focus on the overall development of athletes in a safe and fun environment while upholding all aspects of the Skier Responsibility Code, Park SMART, and Company guidelines. We are an in-house team, with foundation support and tremendous growth opportunities."
That is substantive. So About the role can include both the initial marketing paragraph and the job summary.
Responsibilities: list bullet points under "Job Responsibilities". Let's extract them:
- Upholding the highest levels of guest and personal safety on varied terrain under varying winter weather conditions.
- Ensuring that athletes are matched to appropriate skier skill level and working with supervisors/managers to make appropriate changes when necessary.
- Clearly communicating instructions and assisting athletes during training sessions and at competitions.
- Supervising athletes in training at all times; ensuring return of athletes to identified guardian.
- Assisting in operational responsibilities of competition services and related SRS programs including but not limited to registration process, directing athletes to appropriate equipment fitting source, upkeep of outdoor training areas, and cleanliness of facilities.
- Other duties as assigned.
Requirements: list bullet points under "Job Requirements". Extract:
- Must be at least 18 years of age
- Attend Ski or Ride training sessions
- Basic knowledge of word processing, spreadsheet and browser applications; basic internet navigation
- Must be fluent in all aspects of the English language (spoken and written)
- Must have excellent guest service skills
- Must have excellent communication skills
- Must work well in a team
- Must be able to work in inclement weather in a high alpine environment
- Must have sight, speech, and hearing abilities sufficient to learn skills, follow and provide directions
- Must be available to work holidays and weekends
- Must be able to lift, stand, walk, stoop, kneel, crouch, and reach frequently.
- Must attain US Ski and Snowboard Level 100 by end of second season
Qualifications: maybe the Job Specifications: Starting Wage, Employment Type, Shift Type, Minimum Age, Housing Availability. But Minimum Age already in requirements. However we can treat Job Specifications as Qualifications (like employment type, shift, wage). But we also have Pay section separate. The instructions: Use headings for Pay, Schedule, Benefits etc. So we could put Pay in its own section, Schedule in its own, Benefits separate. Qualifications could include things like "Must attain US Ski and Snowboard Level 100 by end of second season" maybe but that's already in requirements. However we could still have a Qualifications section for things like "Winter Seasonal 2026/2027, Part Time hours available, Minimum Age: At least 18 years of age, Housing Availability: No". But Minimum Age duplicate; we could still include but maybe better to avoid duplication. The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all info, but we can avoid duplication by not repeating same info in multiple places? It says preserve ALL substantive information; does not forbid duplication but better to avoid redundancy. However we could keep Minimum Age in Requirements only, and not repeat in Qualifications. But then we lose the info about Housing Availability and Employment Type etc. So we need to include those somewhere. Could put them under Qualifications.
Thus Qualifications section: Employment Type: Winter Seasonal 2026/2027; Shift Type: Part Time hours available; Housing Availability: No; Starting Wage: $20.00/hr - $23.00/hr (but Pay section will cover wage). Might still include wage in Qualifications? Better to put wage in Pay section. So Qualifications: Employment Type, Shift Type, Housing Availability.
Skills: Preferred Skills list:
- Previous experience with teaching/coaching/mentoring
- Experience coaching experience of winter sports athletes of all ages (maybe duplicate phrasing)
- Previous ski/snowboard coaching experience
- Knowledge of local area/resort
We can clean duplicates.
Benefits: list from "Employee Benefits Ski/Mountain Perks! ..." plus earlier mention of free pass(es), free ski and snowboard lessons, 40% retail discounts, Epic Service training, wellness benefits, plus the list: 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.
Also earlier: "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."
Thus Benefits section should include all those.
Pay: The expected pay range $20.00/hr - $23.00/hr. Also mention "some of the highest compensation rates in the industry". But we should include the specific range.
Schedule: The posting mentions Shift Type: Part Time hours available; also hiring rolling basis, applications until Dec 15 or until filled. Also maybe mention availability to work holidays and weekends (that's in requirements). But schedule section should contain info about work schedule: Part Time hours available, Winter Seasonal 2026/2027, must be available to work holidays and weekends. Also maybe mention shift type part time. So we can include.
We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual data.
Now produce HTML fragment: use
