We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The description includes a lot of intro about EA, but we need to extract substantive content. The job description: "We are looking for a Director of Executive Communications..." etc. We need sections: maybe "About the role", "Responsibilities"? Actually we need headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections when posting has real specific content. We have: - About the role: The description includes overview of role: "We are looking for a Director of Executive Communications to lead employee and external communications for Electronic Arts’ Chief Operating Officer (COO) and COO team. This role will help shape the business narrative and be responsible for developing an integrated communications strategy aligned with clear business objectives and audiences." Also "This position will be based in Redwood City, California and will be hybrid (3x a week in office)." That could be schedule? Actually schedule: hybrid 3 days a week in office. So schedule section. - Responsibilities: The bullet list under "In This Role You Will" includes many responsibilities. We'll list them as
  • . - Requirements: The "Qualifications" section includes many bullet points (14+ years experience etc). Those are qualifications/requirements. Could treat as Requirements. - Qualifications: Might be overlapping. The posting has "Qualifications" heading then bullet list. Could treat that as Qualifications. Requirements maybe not separate; but we can include both if content distinct. However we have only one qualifications list. Could split: Requirements = experience etc; Qualifications = education etc? But the list includes both experience and education. Might be better to have one section "Qualifications" containing all bullet points. The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We can include multiple if content exists. We have content for About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Possibly Skills not explicitly separate; but we could infer skills from qualifications but better not to invent. So we omit Skills if no explicit. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all bullet points exactly as given? We can paraphrase but must preserve meaning. Safer to copy the bullet points text. We need to remove boilerplate: EEO etc. Also remove duplicated lines. Let's extract: About the role paragraph: The first paragraph after the intro? Actually the description starts with EA description then "We are looking for a Director of Executive Communications..." That's the role overview. We'll put that in
