for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — 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. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences.
We need to parse the posting.
Key content:
Location: Hershey, PA Travel: 10-20%
Why Hershey: description about culture, purpose, etc.
How will you fit in the big picture? description of role: design, development, optimization of packaging solutions, managing tactical plans, cross-functional collaboration, etc.
What will you do? bullet list of duties: Design Packaging Solutions, Select and Qualify Materials, Apply Manufacturing Knowledge, Support Product Development, Document Technical Work.
Minimum Requirements: list of items: 3+ Years of Packaging Engineering experience, then definitions of Product Packaging, Problem Solving, Data Integrity, Collaboration, Planning. Those definitions seem like they are describing each requirement? Actually they list Minimum Requirements then bullet points: "3+ Years of Packaging Engineering experience" then sub-bullets: "Product Packaging - The technology of enclosing or protecting products..." etc. So we need to preserve all substantive info.
Benefits And Perks: description of benefits: Health & Wellbeing, Financial Security, Time Off & Flexibility, Growth & Development. Also note: "Benefits may vary based on role, location, and eligibility." Also "The anticipated base salary range for this role is $92,160 to $115,200 per year." Also mention performance-based incentives.
We need to decide sections: Possibly "About the role" (the why Hershey and fit in big picture?), "Responsibilities" (the "What will you do?" list), "Requirements" (minimum requirements), "Benefits" (benefits and perks plus pay range), maybe "Pay" separate? The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should only include sections that have real specific content. We have content for About the role (why Hershey and fit in big picture). Responsibilities (what will you do). Requirements (minimum requirements). Benefits (benefits and perks). Pay (salary range). Schedule? Not present (travel 10-20% maybe schedule? Not exactly schedule; travel percentage is not schedule. So we should not create Schedule section unless posting actually states schedule. It does not. So omit.
Qualifications? Could be same as Requirements? The posting has Minimum Requirements; we could treat that as Requirements. Qualifications maybe not separate. Skills? Not explicitly listed; but we could infer from responsibilities but better not to create thin sections. So we will have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay.
We need to use
for each section heading. Inside each section, we need to use
for prose and
- for any list.
We must preserve all substantive information. Let's extract.
Location and travel: "Location: Hershey, PA Travel: 10-20%" This is minor metadata; we can fold into a short
maybe before sections or within About the role? Probably better to put a short paragraph at top:
Location: Hershey, PA. Travel: 10‑20%.
Why Hershey: paragraph about culture, purpose, Milton Hershey, philanthropy, partnership with Milton Hershey School, etc. We'll keep as prose.
How will you fit in the big picture? description of role: "Working independently this role focuses on the design, development, and optimization of packaging solutions that ensure product protection, functionality, and sustainability. The position involves managing tactical plans aligned with short-term business objectives and addressing moderate to complex challenges that impact multiple teams within the division. The role requires advanced expertise in executing processes and projects related to packaging, including material selection, structural design, and compliance with industry standards and within strategic guidelines. This role requires significant cross-functional collaboration, and has increased ownership and scope acting as primary packaging support for single plant, brand or category. This role collaborates with peers to improve ways of working and share BDP's."
We can combine Why Hershey and How will you fit in the big picture into About the role section? Probably yes: About the role includes company culture and role description. We'll put both as prose paragraphs.
Responsibilities: The "What will you do?" list with each duty and explanation. We'll make each as - containing the duty description (maybe keep the bold heading and explanation). The list items:
- Design Packaging Solutions - The role designs, develops, and optimizes packaging solutions ensuring product protection, performance, and sustainability. It applies engineering knowledge to meet requirements. This delivers quality packaging.
- Select and Qualify Materials - The role selects and qualifies packaging materials and components based on product requirements and cost. It evaluates environmental impact and manufacturing capabilities. This ensures optimal selections.
- Apply Manufacturing Knowledge - The role applies strong manufacturing and equipment knowledge to ensure packaging meets production requirements. It validates designs for manufacturability. This enables efficient production.
- Support Product Development - The role supports product development through packaging engineering expertise. It contributes to specifications and testing. This advances development progress.
- Document Technical Work - The role documents technical work and maintains packaging specifications. It ensures records are accurate and accessible. This supports knowledge management.
We'll keep as
- each.
Requirements: Minimum Requirements: "3+ Years of Packaging Engineering experience" then sub-items definitions. We'll treat as list: first item maybe "3+ Years of Packaging Engineering experience". Then sub-items: "Product Packaging - The technology of enclosing or protecting products for distribution, storage, sale, and use. Packaging also refers to the process of design, evaluation, and production of packages." etc. We'll keep each as
- . Could also nest but not needed.
Benefits: The "Benefits And Perks" section: list of categories with details. We'll make a
with each benefit category as - containing the description.
Also note: "Benefits may vary based on role, location, and eligibility." That's a note; we can include as a
after list.
Pay: "The anticipated base salary range for this role is $92,160 to $115,200 per year. The actual base salary offered will depend on a variety of job‑related factors, including, but not limited to, experience, skill set, education, and training. In addition to a market-competitive base salary, our Total Rewards package includes performance‑based incentives and a comprehensive, competitive benefits package designed to support overall physical, mental, and financial well‑being (as applicable)." Also there is a link to learn more about benefits; we can keep as prose but maybe drop the link? The instruction: remove application instructions, but this is not application instruction; it's a link to learn more about benefits. Might be considered boilerplate? It's a link to external site; but it's substantive? It's a reference; we could keep as part of benefits or pay. Probably keep as a
referencing the link? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. The link is substantive? It's a URL; we could keep as plain text. However, the instruction also says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. This link is not those. So we keep.
We also have a line: "Learn more about Hershey’s benefits and all the resources Hershey provides to support our employees’ physical, emotional, and financial well‑being by visiting the Hershey Digital Employee Experience at www.askHRbenefits.hersheys.com". Keep as part of Benefits or Pay? Probably Benefits.
We'll create Benefits section with list and then a
for the note and link.
Pay section: just the salary range and performance-based incentives note.
We must not create Schedule section.
Now produce HTML fragment.
