We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use only sections that have real specific content. No job title heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate. Include only substantive info.
We need to parse the posting.
Key info:
- Position Type: Admin/Professional Department: Center for AIDE Full or Part Time: Full Time Pay Grade: MN18
- Summary: description.
- Principal Functional Responsibilities: list of responsibilities (multiple bullet-like paragraphs). We need to extract responsibilities as list items.
- Qualifications: list of qualifications.
- Key Leadership Profile Characteristics: maybe treat as Skills? Could be a section "Skills" or "Key Leadership Profile Characteristics". The instruction says use headings like Skills. So we can put that under
. Could combine under one
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use only sections that have real specific content. No job title heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate. Include only substantive info.

- Key Leadership Profile Characteristics: maybe treat as Skills? Could be a section "Skills" or "Key Leadership Profile Characteristics". The instruction says use headings like Skills. So we can put that under Skills
with list.
- Preferred Qualifications: could be part of Qualifications or separate? Probably include under Qualifications as additional bullet points.
- Physical Requirements: maybe include under Requirements? Could be a separate section "Requirements". But we need to decide.
- Department Specific Information: more description about opportunity; could be part of About the role.
- Benefits & Perks: list of benefits.
- Pay: we have Pay Grade: MN18 but not actual salary. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. Pay Grade is stated but not actual pay amount. Should we include Pay section? It says "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It states Pay Grade: MN18, which is a pay grade. That is stating something about pay. Might be considered stating pay. However they said avoid filler like "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD". Pay Grade is specific. So we could include a Pay section with that info. But we need to see if they want actual salary numbers. The rule: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state Pay Grade: MN18. So we can include Pay section with that.
- Schedule: Full Time is stated. So we can include Schedule section with Full Time.
- Benefits: we have Benefits & Perks list. So include Benefits section.
- About the role: we can have a section About the role with summary and department specific info.
- Responsibilities: list.
- Requirements: maybe combine Qualifications and Physical Requirements? The instruction: Use headings for Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need separate sections for Requirements and Qualifications. Requirements could include Physical Requirements and maybe Department Specific Information? Actually Department Specific Information is more about the role. But we can put that under About the role.

We need to ensure we don't repeat job title. No extra headings. We need to output only HTML fragment. Check for any boilerplate: EEO statements, application instructions, etc. Remove. We kept Benefits & Perks but removed policy numbers? We kept them as part of benefit description; they are specific info, okay. We need to ensure we didn't include any filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
