We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes About Us (maybe About the role?), Responsibilities (Your Responsibilities), Required Experience & Skills (maybe Requirements/Skills), Education (Qualifications), Benefits & Perks (Benefits). No Pay or Schedule specifics given (though schedule details are present: required dates, hours per week). Actually schedule details are present: "Must be able to work at least one event shift per week or 10-15 hours." and specific dates. That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section with those details. Pay: not mentioned, so omit. We need headings

for each section. Use
  • for lists. Use

    for prose. We must not repeat job title as heading. Do not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like EEO etc. We need to preserve all substantive info. Let's extract. About Us: description of Penske Entertainment, IMS, etc. That's about the company; could be About the role? The instruction: use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have About the role (maybe summarizing role description). The posting has "What You’ll Do" which is role description. Also "About Us" is company overview. Could combine into About the role? Probably better to have About the role section containing the role description (What You’ll Do) and maybe About Us? But we must not invent. We can put About the role using the "What You’ll Do" paragraph. And maybe also include About Us as part of About the role? Might be okay to include both as prose. Responsibilities: list bullet points under "Your Responsibilities". Those are bullet points. Requirements: maybe "Required Experience & Skills" includes required experience and skills. Could split into Requirements and Skills. But we can combine into Requirements section (including required experience & skills). However we also have Education (Qualifications). So we can have Qualifications section for Education. Skills maybe separate? The instruction says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (includes required experience & skills), Qualifications (Education), Benefits, Schedule. Let's extract details. About the role: from "What You’ll Do As a Field Marketing Ambassador, you will be the face of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway (IMS) at events, festivals, and community activations across Central Indiana and statewide outreach initiatives. In this role, you’ll help drive fan engagement, manage promotional materials, and proudly represent the IMS brand as an official ambassador.

Also maybe include About Us? Could add as part of About the role? Might be okay to include a brief About the company as part of About the role?
