Experience Manager
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include sections only when posting has real specific content. The posting includes Overview, General Summary & Scope, PRINCIPAL DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES, Job Qualifications (Education, Experience, Skills, Special Position Requirements, WORKING CONDITIONS), About (company description). Also there is no explicit Benefits, Pay, Schedule content. There's mention of flexible full-time schedule (Special Position Requirements) but not explicit schedule details like hours. There's no pay info. Benefits not mentioned. So we should not create Benefits, Pay, Schedule sections.
We need sections: About the role (maybe Overview/General Summary?), Responsibilities (Principal Duties), Requirements (maybe Job Qualifications?), Qualifications (Education/Experience?), Skills (Skills), maybe we can combine. But we must not repeat job title as heading. Use for each section heading.
We need to decide mapping: The posting has Overview (place of energy...), General Summary & Scope (role description). Could be "About the role". Then "Responsibilities" from PRINCIPAL DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES. Then "Requirements" maybe from Job Qualifications (Education, Experience, Special Position Requirements, WORKING CONDITIONS). Then "Qualifications" maybe from Education and Experience? But we might double. Better to follow typical sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. But we need to avoid duplication. Let's think: The posting includes Education, Experience, Skills, Special Position Requirements, WORKING CONDITIONS. Could put those under "Requirements". Then "Qualifications" maybe not needed if we already have requirements. But we can include "Qualifications" for Education and Experience? However the instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we combine Education, Experience, Skills, Special Position Requirements, WORKING CONDITIONS into a single "Requirements" section. Then we could have "Skills" separate? But Skills already listed; could be part of Requirements. But we could also have a "Skills" section for the skills list. However that may be thin. Better to have "Requirements" covering education, experience, special position requirements, working conditions, and maybe also skills? But we have a distinct Skills list; we could put that under "Skills" section. That seems reasonable.
Thus sections:
- About the role (h3) containing Overview + General Summary & Scope (maybe combine).
- Responsibilities (h3) containing PRINCIPAL DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES (list items).
- Requirements (h3) containing Education, Experience, Special Position Requirements, WORKING CONDITIONS.
- Skills (h3) containing Skills list.
We must not include Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. At end there is an EEO statement about considering applicants with arrest records etc. That's boilerplate; should be removed. Also the "About At Ulta Beauty (NASDAQ: ULTA)..." is company description; that's not boilerplate? It's about the company; could be considered part of "About the role"? Might be okay to keep as part of About the role? But the instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The "About At Ulta Beauty..." is not EEO; it's company overview. Might be okay to keep. However we already have About the role section; we could incorporate that description there. But we must not repeat job title as heading. The page already shows it; we don't have job title in text. So fine.
We need to ensure we don't include duplicated lines. The posting has some repeated phrases? Not many.

About the role
Overview text + General Summary & Scope combined into prose.
We need to keep the content: Overview: "Experience a place of energy, passion, and excitement. A place where the joy of discovery and uncommon artistry blend to create exhilarating buying experiences—for true beauty enthusiasts. At Ulta Beauty, we’re transforming the world one shade, one lash, one cut at a time. Because beauty is powerful. If you seek greater purpose—a place of vision, mission, and lived values—where voices are heard, contributions valued and recognized and growth opportunities abound, consider Ulta Beauty. Nowhere else are the possibilities quite this beautiful."
General Summary & Scope: "The Experience Manager (EM) is responsible for leading through Ulta Beauty’s mission, vision, and values in order to develop a high-performing team that consistently delivers top-line sales growth in retail and services. The EM leads a team of stylists, estheticians, guest coordinators (select locations), Assistant Services Managers (select stores), Sales Managers and boutique leads. This leader is accountable for all aspects of the guest experience, retail sales, and services businesses, including salon services, boutiques, retail sales, makeup, and guest satisfaction. The EM is accountable for Net Promoter Score (NPS) and delivering an exceptional guest experience. The EM drives their business through a focus on performance (NPS, services, boutiques, makeup, and retail sales), people (guest experience and associate culture), and process (operating procedures and compliance standards). This position requires a drive for results, a passion for the beauty industry, the ability to deliver exceptional guest service, and the ability to lead, influence, and develop their team."
We can combine into a couple paragraphs.
Then Responsibilities: need to list duties. The PRINCIPAL DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES includes many bullet-like sentences. We need to turn each duty into - . The text includes headings: Performance, People, Process. Could keep those as subheadings? But we only allowed

The instruction only says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but to be safe we can just use - and maybe include the headings as plain text inside
