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. We need to parse the job posting. We have: - Position Summary: description about role. - Essential Functions: list of duties. - Additional Responsibilities: "Other duties as assigned." (maybe not needed). - What Is Required: qualifications (education, experience, etc.) - What Is Desired: desired attributes. - About our Company: description. - Benefits: "Enjoy our Comprehensive Benefits Package! Annual discretionary bonuses, 401(k) (6% company match and up to 9% company retirement contribution), tuition reimbursement, generous paid time off benefits, including paid holidays and parental leave, company paid life insurance and disability benefits (short and long term), critical illness, accident & group hospital insurance, pet insurance, an employee assistance program and well-being benefits, and competitive medical, dental and vision insurance." - Pay Range: "$170,000 - $280,550 (This posting includes the full pay range for this position. Pay is based on a number of factors and may vary depending on job-related knowledge, skills, experience, and internal equity.)" - Reporting Relationship: VP of Strategic Growth - Location: Rapid City, SD; Cheyenne, WY; or Denver, CO - Relocation Assistance: "Relocation assistance is available based on individual circumstances! Details to be shared during the offer process." - Driving responsibilities: driver's license, travel up to 25%. We need to decide sections. We have: - About the role: could be Position Summary. - Responsibilities: Essential Functions (list). Additional Responsibilities maybe minor. - Requirements: What Is Required (education, experience, etc.) - Qualifications: maybe combine with Requirements? But we can have Qualifications separate if we want. However we should avoid thin sections. Could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one? The instruction says use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can choose which to include based on content. We have content for: - About the role (Position Summary) - Responsibilities (Essential Functions) - Requirements (What Is Required) - Qualifications (maybe What Is Desired? Or we could treat What Is Desired as Skills? Actually Skills could be separate: we have "Strong business and financial acumen", "problem-solving abilities", etc. Those could be Skills. - Benefits: we have benefits description. - Pay: we have pay range. - Schedule: maybe travel up to 25%? Not exactly schedule. Could include "Travel up to 25% of the time" as schedule? Might be considered schedule. But we have no explicit schedule like full-time, part-time. Could omit Schedule if not specific. - Location: maybe not a heading; could be included in About the role or a short paragraph. - Reporting Relationship: could be included in About the role. - Relocation Assistance: could be in Benefits? Or separate? Not a standard heading; maybe include in Benefits? But we have Benefits heading already; we could add relocation assistance there. - Driving requirement: could be in Requirements? Or maybe in Qualifications? Could be a requirement. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, etc. Remove those. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have pay range specific, so we can include Pay. We must not create Schedule unless posting actually states them. There's travel up to 25% of the time, which is a schedule aspect? Might be considered schedule. But we could include a Schedule section with that detail. However the instruction says "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." The posting does state travel up to 25% of the time, which is about schedule/travel. So we could include Schedule with that detail. But we also have location and reporting relationship; those could be placed in About the role paragraph. We need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. Thus: - About the role:

    About the role

    Position Summary ... plus maybe reporting relationship, location, relocation assistance, travel requirement, driver's license.

    - Responsibilities:

    Responsibilities

    • ... each essential function.
    - Requirements:

    Requirements

    • ... each requirement (education, experience, leadership, data center experience preferred, understanding, executive presence, ability to develop strategic growth initiatives, business and financial acumen, problem-solving, flexibility, success in acquiring client relationships, translate market intelligence, driving responsibilities (driver's license, travel up to 25%).
    But we also have "What Is Desired" which could be Skills or Qualifications. Could treat as Skills:

    Skills

    • ... self-starter, ownership, work ethic, resilience, navigate ambiguity, comprehensive knowledge of utility services, familiarity with industry regulations.
    But we also have Benefits:

    Benefits

    • ... list each benefit.
    Pay:

    Pay

    Pay Range: $170,000 - $280,550 (This posting includes the full pay range for this position. Pay is based on a number of factors and may vary depending on job-related knowledge, skills, experience, and internal equity.)

    Schedule: maybe

    Schedule

    Travel up to 25% of the time required.

    But we also have relocation assistance; could be in Benefits or separate. Could add to Benefits list: "Relocation assistance available based on individual circumstances (details shared during offer process)." We must not include boilerplate like EEO, etc. We must not include "Additional Responsibilities Other duties as assigned." That's vague; maybe we can omit as it's not substantive. We must not include "This description is not intended to be an all-inclusive list..." boilerplate; remove. We must not include "About our Company:" but we can include company description in About the role? Actually we have a separate "About our Company:" paragraph. That is substantive; we could include it in About the role or maybe a separate section "About the company". But headings list does not include About the company; but we could incorporate into About the role or maybe a separate

    About the company

    not in list but allowed? The instruction says use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It gives examples but not exclusive; we could still use other headings? It says "use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." Likely they expect those headings only. But we could still add other headings if needed, but better to stick to those. Thus we can put company description inside About the role paragraph. Now we need to ensure we preserve all substantive information. Let's extract details: Position Summary: "The Director of Data Center Development will drive the growth of the utility business by identifying and cultivating new data center clients while continuing to manage existing relationships and partnerships. This role involves developing strategic partnerships, understanding client needs, and promoting the utility's services to support data center growth opportunities.
