We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes sections: Who Is American College Of Education (intro), Who You Are, Education (but that's actually description of role?), Compensation, What We Look For In The Ideal Candidate, Day To Day Responsibilities, Qualifications And Education Requirements, Our Commitment to Employees Benefits, Physical Demands, Commitment to Culture, Additional Notes (maybe not needed). We must only include sections when posting has real, specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). However we can use other headings? The instruction says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). However we can use other headings? The instruction says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It suggests we should use those headings if applicable. But we can also use other headings? It says use for section headings (e.g. ...). Likely we should map content to those standard headings where appropriate. But we can also create custom headings? The instruction: "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It implies we should use those headings for sections. Probably we should map content to those categories: About the role (intro), Responsibilities (day-to-day), Requirements (qualifications), Qualifications (maybe overlapping), Skills (what we look for), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. However we also have sections like "Who Is American College Of Education" which is about the company; could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is about the job, not company. But we could treat the company intro as "About the role"? Might be okay. The instruction: "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it)". So we can have headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include only those sections that have real content.
Let's extract content:
- About the role: Could be the description of the role: "The Director of AI Strategy and Enablement leads the organization's enterprise AI strategy and establishes and operates the AI Center of Excellence..." That's from "Education" section? Actually after "Who You Are" there is "Education The Director of AI Strategy..." That seems mislabelled; it's actually role description. So we can put that under About the role.
- Responsibilities: Day To Day Responsibilities list.
- Requirements: Qualifications And Education Requirements.
- Qualifications: maybe same as Requirements? Could combine.
- Skills: What We Look For In The Ideal Candidate (skills/attributes).
- Benefits: Our Commitment to Employees Benefits list.
- Pay: Compensation section.
- Schedule: Not present; no schedule info. So we omit Schedule.
Also we might include "About the company" maybe not needed; but we could include as About the role? Might be okay.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, etc. Remove lines like "ACE is an Equal Opportunity Employer". Also remove "Please note that all official communication will only come from our verified company email domain @Rippling.com". Also remove "Additional Notes" maybe not needed? It contains some info about AI usage, bandwidth, location restrictions. That's substantive? It includes location restrictions (cannot consider candidates residing in certain states). That's substantive. Should we include? Possibly under a section like "Additional Notes" but not in standard headings. Could we treat as "Requirements"? Might be location eligibility. Could be part of Requirements. But we can also create a section "Additional Notes" as but not in list? The instruction says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but suggests we should use those. Safer to map location restrictions under Requirements or Qualifications. We'll add a note under Requirements.
Also we must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep details like salary range $200,000 plus bonus, benefits list, etc.
We must not include duplicated lines.
We must output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
