Director of Legal Writing
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We must preserve all substantive info, no invented details. Remove boilerplate, navigation, EEO, etc.
We need to parse the posting.
Key parts:
- Position Overview: description about NCCU, mission, benefits package, etc. That could be "About the role" or maybe "About the role". The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to map content to these headings.
We have:
Position Overview: description of NCCU, mission, benefits package, etc. Could be "About the role".
Primary Function of Organizational Unit: description of School of Law mission. Could be part of About the role.
Primary Purpose of Position: description of Director of Legal Writing responsibilities: academic and administrative leadership, develop, coordinate, assess curriculum, support faculty, advance commitment to student success, bar readiness, practice preparation by strengthening skills. That's responsibilities.
Required Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities: includes teaching courses, office hours, expertise, ability to design and teach JD-level courses, excellent oral/written English, organizational/time management, basic computer skills, proficiency in MS Office, experience with Lexis/Westlaw. Also mentions "The Legal Writing Director will be paid an annual salary." That's Pay info (but vague: annual salary, no amount). We should not create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It says "will be paid an annual salary." That's still stating they will be paid an annual salary (but no amount). The rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state they will be paid an annual salary, but no specifics. Is that enough? The rule says: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. "annual salary" is a statement but not a specific amount; could be considered filler? It's not a placeholder like "commensurate with experience". It's a statement that they will be paid an annual salary (which is true for any salaried position). Might be considered too generic. Safer to not include Pay section unless there is a specific amount or range. So we omit Pay.
Minimum Education/Experience: J.D. from ABA accredited law school. License to practice law in good standing. That's Requirements/Qualifications.
Key Responsibilities and Related Competencies: broken into Function Instructional, Research, Public Service. Those are responsibilities.
Posting Detail Information: includes Posting Number, Open Date, Close Date, Position Available, Special Instructions. Those are metadata; we should fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. We can include a short paragraph with posting number, dates, etc. But we should not create headings for them. We must not repeat job title as heading. So no heading for Director of Legal Writing. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. We need to use
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to decide sections:
- About the role: could combine Position Overview, Primary Function of Organizational Unit, maybe Primary Purpose of Position? But Primary Purpose is more responsibilities. Better: About the role: overview of NCCU and School of Law mission. Could include Position Overview and Primary Function of Organizational Unit.
- Responsibilities: combine Primary Purpose of Position and Key Responsibilities (Instructional, Research, Public Service). Could be a list.
- Requirements: Minimum Education/Experience (J.D., license). Could also include Required Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities? That's more skills/abilities. The instruction separate Skills section. So we can have Requirements for education/license, Skills for abilities.
- Skills: from Required Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities: expertise in subject matter, ability to design and teach JD-level courses, excellent oral/written English, excellent organizational/time management, basic computer skills, proficiency in MS Office, experience with Lexis/Westlaw, holding office hours corresponding to course hours taught, teach various courses within legal writing curriculum and any other courses as assigned.
- Benefits: The posting mentions "comprehensive benefits package and exclusive perks designed to support your work-life balance." That's a statement about benefits. So we can include Benefits section with that description.
- Pay: we decided not to include because only "annual salary" vague.
- Schedule: not mentioned.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits.
We need to ensure we don't create empty sections.
Now craft content.
About the role: combine Position Overview and Primary Function of Organizational Unit.

Benefits: "Join our team and enjoy a comprehensive benefits package and exclusive perks designed to support your work-life balance." Also maybe mention "comprehensive benefits package" from Position Overview.
We'll put that.
Now ensure we don't include boilerplate: EEO, Special Instructions, Posting Detail Information (except maybe we can include a short p with posting number and dates? The instruction: fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we could include a short paragraph with Posting Number F000302, Open Date 09/17/2026, Position Available 07/01/2027. But we need to decide if that's needed. It's minor metadata; we can include a short p at the end.
But we must not include headings for metadata.
We'll output:
About the role
...combined text...
Responsibilities
- ... each responsibility as separate li? Could combine sentences but better each bullet.
Similarly for Requirements (- J.D....
- License...
)
Skills (- ... each skill

Make sure no extra whitespace? It's fine.
Now craft the combined About the role text. Need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. We'll combine but must not lose info. We'll write a paragraph that includes all details from both sections.
Let's draft:
