or drop it." So we can include a short p for location, status, reports to, supervises, pay range maybe? But Pay Range is specific and we should include a Pay section if posting actually states them. Yes, Pay Range is given, so we should have a Pay section with that info. Similarly Schedule? Not given explicitly; only mention flexibility to work evenings, weekends, holidays as required. That's schedule info but not explicit schedule like "Full-time, evenings, weekends". Could be considered schedule content. The rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Benefits are stated: "Stonebridge offers comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, vision, PTO, 401(k) matching, wellness support, life and disability coverage, savings accounts, tuition aid, and travel and lodging perks." So we can have Benefits section. Schedule: The posting mentions "Flexibility to work evenings, weekends, and holidays as required by business operations." That's schedule info. So we can include a Schedule section with that sentence. Now headings: We need to decide which sections to include. Likely: About the role (Job Summary), Responsibilities (Essential Functions and Duties), Requirements (Required Experience, Education, and Skills), Qualifications maybe overlapping with Requirements; but we should not create thin sections. We can combine Requirements and Qualifications into one? The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have: About the role (Job Summary), Responsibilities, Requirements (includes education, experience, skills), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Possibly also Work Environment? Could be part of Requirements or separate? Might be thin. Could incorporate into Requirements or About the role? Probably better to have a Work Environment section if substantive. It describes indoor environment, standing, lifting, etc. That's substantive. Could be its own section. But we need to avoid many thin sections. We have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay, Schedule, Work Environment. That's 7 sections; maybe okay if each substantive. However we could merge Work Environment into Requirements or About the role. But it's distinct. Let's see if we can keep it. We must not repeat job title as heading. So headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We'll use those that have content. We need to use
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all duties, requirements, benefits, pay range, schedule, work environment, etc.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, Massachusetts lie detector, "All Stonebridge openings..." maybe we can drop or fold into short p. The instruction: fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we could include a short p at top for location, status, reports to, supervises, maybe FLSA? But FLSA is exempt status; could be minor metadata. We'll decide to include a short p with location, employment type, reports to, supervises. Or we could drop them. The instruction says we can fold minor metadata into a short p or drop it. Safer to include a short p with that info.
Thus output:
Location: Montclair, NJ • Status: full-time • Reports to: General Manager • Supervises: Food & Beverage Department • FLSA: Exempt
Then sections.
About the role: use Job Summary paragraph.
Responsibilities: list of duties from Essential Functions and Duties.
Requirements: combine Required Experience, Education, and Skills plus Work Environment? Actually Work Environment separate maybe. Let's keep Requirements for education/experience/skills. Work Environment separate.
Benefits: list from Stonebridge offers comprehensive benefits...
Pay: Pay Range.
Schedule: flexibility to work evenings, weekends, holidays.
Now ensure we don't create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We must not include duplicated lines. Ensure we don't repeat.
Now craft HTML.
We'll need to escape any special characters? Not needed.

Check for any missing substantive info: Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable qualified individuals with disabilities to perform the essential duties. That's a statement; we could include it maybe under About the role or Requirements. It's substantive. Should we include? It's not boilerplate; it's about accommodations. We should preserve it. Where to place? Could be a short p after About the role or within Requirements. Let's add a p after About the role: "Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable qualified individuals with disabilities to perform the essential duties."
Also "Other Duties: Please note this job description is not designed to cover or contain a comprehensive listing of activities, duties, or responsibilities that are required of the team member for this job. Duties, responsibilities, and activities may change at any time with or without notice." This is also substantive but somewhat generic; still it's info about job description flexibility. We could include a short p under Responsibilities or a separate section? Might be considered boilerplate? It's typical disclaimer. The instruction: remove duplicated lines, but not necessarily remove this disclaimer. It's not EEO/legal? It's a generic disclaimer about job description not comprehensive. Might be considered boilerplate but it's not explicitly listed to remove. However we might keep it as a short p under Responsibilities or a separate "Note". To be safe, include it as a p after Responsibilities.
Also "All Stonebridge openings are projected to close within 30 days of the original posting date. This position will no longer be available 30 days from: 2026-09-11" This is metadata; we could fold into short p at top or drop. We already have a short p for location etc. We could add the closing date there. But instruction: fold minor metadata into a short p or drop it. So we can extend the initial p to include closing date. Let's do: "Location: Montclair, NJ • Status: full-time • Reports to: General Manager • Supervises: Food & Beverage Department • FLSA: Exempt • Position closes 30 days after posting (2026-09-11)". That's okay.
