We need sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have content for About the role? Possibly the "About Mercer University" could be About the role? Actually "About the role" could be the job description summary. But we have "Job Description" paragraph at start. Could treat that as About the role. Responsibilities: we have responsibilities paragraph. Requirements: maybe combine Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications? The spec says separate sections: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide what goes where. Typically Requirements = required qualifications. Qualifications = preferred qualifications. Skills maybe from preferred qualifications like teaching experience, curriculum design, technology use. But we can map: - Requirements: Required Qualifications (terminal degree, ABD considered, ability to translate teaching excellence into various formats). - Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications (foundational and college-level math teaching experience, especially adult learners; experience/interest in innovative curriculum design; passion for teaching using creative approaches, emerging tech). - Skills: maybe we can extract specific skills: teaching in face-to-face, online, hybrid; accelerated format; curriculum design; use of emerging technologies; ability to serve working-adult population; research expectations; service responsibilities. But we must not invent. We can pull from text: "Demonstrates the ability to translate teaching excellence in mathematics into courses with various formats, including face to face, online, and hybrid, in an accelerated format." That's a skill. Also "Experience or interest in innovative discipline-specific mathematics curriculum design." That's a skill. "Using creative, responsible approaches, including emerging technologies, to enhance student learning." That's a skill. Also "outstanding teacher with an active scholarly agenda" maybe skill. We could put those under Skills. Benefits, Pay, Schedule: The posting does not mention benefits, pay, or schedule specifics (except teaching load: seven-course teaching load spread across four accelerated 8-week sessions throughout the nine-month academic year). That's schedule info? It describes teaching load and sessions. Could be considered Schedule? The spec says only create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections if posting actually states them. It does state teaching load and session structure, which is schedule-related. So we could create a Schedule section with that detail. Benefits and Pay not mentioned, so omit. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Schedule. We need to use

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

    for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not put Job ID etc. We need to remove boilerplate: navigation, legal, EEO, duplicated lines, application instructions. So we must exclude lines about "Apply Now Please mention to the employer that you saw this ad on WomenInScience.com Share this job:[Save this Job] Contact Information More Info Job posting number: #7371411 Application Deadline: Open Until Filled Employer Location: Online Job Advertising JAX,Florida United States More jobs from this employer". Also exclude "Interested candidates will complete a brief online application and attach required documentation..."? That's application instructions, should be removed per instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should remove that paragraph about application instructions, required documentation, transcripts, background check, etc. However, we need to preserve substantive information; is that considered substantive? It's about application process, not job content. The instruction says remove application instructions. So we should omit that. Also remove "Selection of the final candidate is contingent upon successful completion of a criminal background check." That's also part of application process; remove. Also remove "Unofficial transcripts may be requested..." etc. Also remove "Required Document Attachments Letter of Interest CV Teaching Philosophy List of References". Remove. Also remove "About Mercer University" maybe considered About the role? Actually it's about the university, not the role. Could be considered About the role? The spec says About the role heading for e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, etc. The "About Mercer University" is about the employer, not the role. Might be considered About the role? Not sure. But we could include it under About the role as context. However, the spec says "About the role" heading for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid including employer info. It says use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have About the role section containing both the job summary and maybe the university description. That's okay. We must not repeat the job title as heading. The job title is "Faculty of Mathematics". We'll not use that as heading. We need to preserve all substantive information: the job description paragraph, responsibilities paragraph, required qualifications, preferred qualifications, skills derived, schedule info (teaching load). Also maybe the location? The posting says "based at one of Mercer’s metro-Atlanta campuses". That's location info, substantive. Should we include? It's part of responsibilities paragraph? Actually it's in the responsibilities paragraph: "The advertised position in the College of Professional Advancement will be based at one of Mercer’s metro-Atlanta campuses". So it's already there. We also have "full-time Faculty of Mathematics". That's job title but we shouldn't repeat as heading. It's okay to appear in prose. We need to format lists where appropriate. For responsibilities, we could make a list of duties? The responsibilities paragraph is prose; we could keep as

    . For required qualifications, we could list each bullet as

    • . Similarly for preferred qualifications and skills. We must not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep exact phrasing? We can keep the substance but not necessarily verbatim? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we should keep the details, not omit any. We can rephrase slightly but must not lose detail. Safer to keep the sentences as is, maybe split into list items but keep the content. Let's extract substantive sentences: From job description paragraph: "Mercer University’s College of Professional Advancement invites applications for a full-time Faculty of Mathematics to join the Department of Informatics and Mathematics in August 2027." That's substantive. From responsibilities paragraph (the big block): "With twelve colleges and schools, Mercer University has a Carnegie Research II classification and offers a vibrant academic community committed to student success and academic excellence. The advertised position in the College of Professional Advancement will be based at one of Mercer’s metro-Atlanta campuses and includes a seven-course teaching load spread across four accelerated 8-week sessions throughout the nine-month academic year in addition to research expectations and service responsibilities. The Department of Informatics and Mathematics is an interdisciplinary academic unit serving students in information technology, software development, human-computer interaction, data science, and related areas. The Department also has the mission to support the University’s General Education curriculum and provides mathematics instruction for students across a variety of academic and professional programs. The successful candidate will be an outstanding teacher with an active scholarly agenda and a desire to contribute to the life of the Department, College, and University by serving a working-adult student population." We need to keep all that. From required qualifications: "Terminal degree in Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, Mathematics Education, Statistics, Computational Mathematics or a closely related field from an accredited institution by the time of appointment. ABD candidates will be considered at the rank of Instructor until the PhD has been obtained. Demonstrates the ability to translate teaching excellence in mathematics into courses with various formats, including face to face, online, and hybrid, in an accelerated format." From preferred qualifications: "Foundational and college-level mathematics teaching experience, especially teaching students from diverse academic backgrounds, especially adult and post-traditional learners. Experience or interest in innovative discipline-specific mathematics curriculum design. A passion for teaching mathematics and using creative, responsible approaches, including emerging technologies, to enhance student learning." From About Mercer University paragraph: "Founded in 1833, Mercer University is a distinguished private institution recognized for its commitment to academic excellence, leadership development, and community engagement. With campuses across Georgia, Mercer’s twelve schools and colleges offer a wide range of undergraduate, graduate, and professional programs. The university cultivates a close-knit, student-centered environment where innovation, service, and personal growth are deeply valued. Mercer’s employees are at the heart of its mission, dedicated to advancing innovation, supporting student success, and strengthening both our local and global communities through service. At Mercer, we believe in the power of relationships and the importance of in-person collaboration. Accordingly, our employees are expected to serve in-person as it fosters real-time problem solving, mentoring, and the meaningful connections that strengthen both our work
