Executive Search Sourcer / Researcher / Associate Recruiter

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes Company Description, Overview, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Success in the First Year, Additional Information (benefits, compensation). We need to use

for section headings (e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We must not repeat job title as heading. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Our Publicis Groupe motto ..."? That's part of Additional Information but maybe not boilerplate; it's about culture. Could keep as part of Additional Information? The instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. The motto is not EEO but could be considered culture statement; we can keep if it's substantive. However we need to decide sections: Overview (maybe "About the role") includes company description and overview. Responsibilities section. Qualifications section. Success in the First Year could be under "Requirements" or "Skills"? But we have headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can map content accordingly. We have: Company Description (could go under About the role). Overview (maybe also About the role). Responsibilities (clear). Qualifications (clear). Success in the First Year (maybe under Requirements or Skills). Additional Information includes benefits, compensation, accommodation contact, EEO, etc. We need Benefits, Pay sections if present. Benefits: they list medical coverage, dental, vision, disability, 401K, parental and family care leave, family forming assistance, tuition reimbursement, flexible time off. Also mention freelancer/temporary employee medical plan etc. So we can include Benefits section. Pay: Compensation Range: USD $110,000.00 - USD $180,000.00/NA. That's pay range. So we include Pay section. Schedule: Not mentioned. So we should not create Schedule section. Requirements: Could be the qualifications? But we already have Qualifications heading. The list includes Requirements heading; we could use Requirements for "Success in the First Year" or maybe combine with Qualifications. But we need to avoid empty sections. We have Qualifications content. We could treat "Success in the First Year" as Requirements (what they expect in first year). Or we could treat it as Skills? But better to use Requirements for the success expectations. However the instruction says use headings from list; we can choose which to include. We'll include About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay. Possibly also Requirements if we have content. Let's see if we have content for Requirements: The "Success in the First Year" bullet points are expectations for first year; could be considered Requirements? But they are more like objectives. Could also be under "Skills"? Not exactly. I'd include a Requirements section with those bullet points. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We need to use

for each section heading. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

  for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the specifics: e.g., "Lead talent mapping and candidate identification for executive searches across marketing, professional services, consulting, technology, commerce, AI, and related sectors" etc. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. The text includes: "If you require accommodation or assistance with the application or onboarding process specifically, please contact USMTTACompliance@publicis.com. All your information will be kept confidential according to EEO guidelines." That's EEO boilerplate; we should remove that. Also "Our Publicis Groupe motto “Viva La Différence” means we’re better together, and we believe that our differences make us stronger. It means we honor and celebrate all identities, across all facets of intersectionality, and it underpins all that we do as an organization. We are focused on fostering belonging and creating equitable & inclusive experiences for all talent." This is culture statement; not EEO but could be considered boilerplate? It's not explicitly listed to remove, but it's somewhat generic. However it's substantive about company values; maybe we keep as part of About the role? But we already have company description. Could incorporate into About the role paragraph. Also "Publicis Groupe provides robust and inclusive benefit programs and policies to support the evolving and diverse needs of our talent and enable every person to grow and thrive." That's part of benefits description; we can keep. We need to remove duplicated lines: I don't see obvious duplicates. We need to remove application instructions: The accommodation contact line is application instruction; we remove it. Now we need to structure. Let's draft:

  We should not include Schedule. We need to ensure we didn't include any boilerplate like EEO. We removed the accommodation line and EEO line. Also removed the motto? We kept some of the culture in About the role? We didn't include the motto explicitly; we could incorporate a sentence about "Viva La Différence" but it's optional. The instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. The motto is not EEO; it's a cultural statement. It's not required to remove. However we might keep it as part of About the role to preserve substantive info. But we already have a paragraph about company description; we could add a sentence: "Publicis Groupe’s motto “Viva La Différence” reflects its commitment to embracing differences and fostering belonging." That's substantive. Let's add that to About the role paragraph. Also we removed the line about "Publicis Groupe provides robust and inclusive benefit programs and policies to support the evolving and diverse needs of our talent and enable every person to grow and thrive." That's beneficial to keep maybe in Benefits section as a preamble. Could add a

  before the list. Similarly "Our benefits package includes medical coverage, dental, vision, disability, 401K, as well as parental and family care leave, family forming assistance, tuition reimbursement, and flexible time off." That's essentially the list we have; we can keep as prose or list. We'll keep list. We also have: "If you require accommodation or assistance with the application or onboarding process specifically, please contact USMTTACompliance@publicis.com. All your information will be kept confidential according to EEO guidelines." Remove. Also: "For regular roles, the Company will offer medical coverage, dental, vision, disability, 401k, and paid time off." That's similar to benefits; we can incorporate. Also: "Temporary roles may be eligible to participate in our freelancer/temporary employee medical plan through a third-party benefits administration system once certain criteria have been met." Could add as a note in Benefits. Also: "The Company anticipates the application deadline for this job posting will be 10/30/2026." That's application instruction/deadline; we should remove as per instruction to remove application instructions. So remove. Now we need to ensure we haven't inadvertently included any duplicated lines. Looks fine. Now output HTML fragment. Check that we used

  for each section heading. No extra headings. We have About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Requirements, Benefits, Pay. We didn't use Skills heading; that's okay.
