We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes Advertising Summary, Position Details, Job Duties and Responsibilities, Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities, Qualifications, Working Conditions and Physical Effort, Recruitment Summary (maybe about NMSU). We need to use for section headings (e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We should map content to these headings. The instructions: "use
for section headings (e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We should map content to these headings. The instructions: "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we should use those exact headings? It says "e.g." meaning examples, but we should use those headings when appropriate. We need to include a section only when posting has real, specific content for it. So we need to decide which sections we have content for.
We have:
- About the role: could be Advertising Summary (strategic leadership etc). That's a prose description.
- Responsibilities: Job Duties and Responsibilities.
- Requirements: Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities? Or Qualifications? Usually Requirements = Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities. Qualifications = Required Education and Experience.
- Skills: maybe part of Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities.
- Benefits: Not explicitly stated; there is no benefits info. So we should NOT include Benefits section.
- Pay: There's Target Hourly/Salary Rate: $77,235.92 - $100,406.80; Commensurate with Qualifications. That's pay info. So we can include Pay section with that range. However note: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state pay range, so we can include Pay.
- Schedule: There's Standard Work Schedule: Standard (M-F, 8-5). So we can include Schedule section.
- Also we might include Qualifications section for Required Education and Experience.
- Also maybe include "Working Conditions and Physical Effort" but that's not in the list of headings; we could incorporate into Requirements or maybe omit if not matching headings. The instruction says use those headings for section headings (e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but likely we should stick to those. However we could also include a section for "Working Conditions" if we want, but not required. Better to stick to the given headings.
Thus we will produce sections:
About the role
with paragraph from Advertising Summary.
Responsibilities
with - list of duties from Job Duties and Responsibilities.
Requirements
with - list from Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities.
Qualifications
with for Required Education and Experience (Associate's +10 years or Bachelor's +8 years, Master's preferred). Also maybe Preferred Qualifications? There's "Preferred Qualifications: Special Certification/Licensure" but no detail; it's just heading with no detail. So we should not include that as it's filler. So just required.
Skills
maybe we could split but we already have Requirements covering knowledge, skills, abilities. Could also put Skills separate but might be redundant. The instruction: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities into Requirements and not have separate Skills. But they gave Skills as an example heading; we could still include if we have content. However we have content for skills within Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities. Could we split? Might be thin. Better to combine into Requirements.
Thus we will have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Pay, Schedule.
Check for any other content: Recruitment Summary about NMSU could be considered About the role? It's more about the institution. Could be included in About the role as additional paragraph. But we should not repeat boilerplate like EEO etc. The Recruitment Summary is descriptive of NMSU; it's substantive. Could include in About the role as extra paragraph.
We must remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we will omit EEO Statement, Requesting an Accommodation, Special Instructions to Applicants, etc.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the details from each section.
Let's extract:
Advertising Summary: "Thank you for your interest in joining our team!

We can keep that as paragraph.
Job Duties and Responsibilities: list of duties (sentences). We need to convert each duty into - . The text is a long paragraph with semicolons. We'll split into logical items.

Qualifications Required Education and Experience: "Associate's Degree + 10 years of relevant experience or a Bachelor's degree + 8 years of relevant experience. Master's degree or higher preferred."
We'll put that in a paragraph.
Pay: "Target Hourly/Salary Rate: $77,235.92 - $100,406.80; Commensurate with Qualifications." We should include the range; the phrase "Commensurate with Qualifications" is maybe filler but it's part of the posting. It's not placeholder like "commensurate with experience" which is disallowed? The instruction says never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD"). That's about headings followed by filler text. Here we have a Pay section with content: the range plus "Commensurate with Qualifications." That's not just filler; it's part of the statement. It's okay.
Schedule: "Standard Work Schedule: Standard (M-F, 8-5)". We'll put that.
We might also include a brief About the role paragraph that also includes Recruitment Summary? The Recruitment Summary is about NMSU; we could add as another paragraph under About the role. It's substantive.
