We need to output HTML fragment with sections only when there is real specific content. Use for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We have description: Position Summary (maybe About the role). Responsibilities list. Requirements includes Experience and Education Required, Skills Required, Success Criteria, Licenses or Certifications N/A, Standard Specifications etc.

We need to include sections only if posting has real specific content.
We have:

But we have to follow headings list; we can put Success Criteria under Requirements as part of it, or maybe under a separate section not listed?

Licenses or Certifications N/A: we skip.
Standard Specifications: boilerplate; we can skip as it's generic.
Grooming: "All employees must maintain a neat, clean and well-groomed appearance per Biltmore Hotel standards." This is a requirement; we can include under Requirements maybe as a bullet.
Schedule: mention: "Due to the nature of the hospitality industry, employees may be required to work varying schedules to reflect the business needs of the hotel which may include overtime, weekends and holidays." Also earlier: "The employee will carry out any other duties as are within the scope, spirit and purpose of the job as requested by the line manager or Head of Department/Division." That's generic; we can ignore.
We'll include Schedule section with that sentence.
Now construct HTML:
for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We have description: Position Summary (maybe About the role). Responsibilities list. Requirements includes Experience and Education Required, Skills Required, Success Criteria, Licenses or Certifications N/A, Standard Specifications etc.
We need to extract substantive content.
We should not repeat job title. No Job ID.
We need to include sections only if posting has real specific content.
We have:
- About the role: could be Position Summary paragraph.
- Responsibilities: list of duties.
- Requirements: includes Education, Experience, maybe also Skills? But we have separate Skills section.
- Qualifications: maybe not present; we have Licenses or Certifications N/A (should not create section if only N/A). So skip Qualifications.
- Skills: list of skills required.
- Benefits: not mentioned; skip.
- Pay: not mentioned; skip.
- Schedule: mention "varying schedules ... may include overtime, weekends and holidays." That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section with that sentence.
Also there is Success Criteria which could be considered part of Requirements or maybe separate but not a standard heading. Could embed under Requirements or maybe under Skills? But we have to follow headings list; we can put Success Criteria under Requirements as part of it, or maybe under a separate section not listed? The instruction says use those headings for section headings. It doesn't forbid other headings, but says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It implies we should use those headings when appropriate. We could also add other headings if needed, but better to stick to those. Success Criteria could be part of Requirements or maybe under Skills? It's more about behaviors; could be under Requirements as part of "Requirements". We'll include it under Requirements as a paragraph.
Also there is "Grooming" section at end; not in list; could be omitted or maybe under Requirements? It's a requirement about appearance. Could be included under Requirements as a bullet.
We need to preserve all substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting, but we can format as lists.
We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. There's some legal text at end: "This document does not create an employment contract..." etc. That's boilerplate; should be removed. Also grooming maybe not boilerplate but specific; keep.
We need to output only HTML fragment.
Let's extract content:
Position Summary paragraph: "The Front Desk Agent is responsible for providing attentive, courteous, and efficient service to all guests during check in, throughout their stay, and at check out, while maximizing room revenue and occupancy. We are the first and last impression for the hotel; our main function is to register all guests into their rooms ensuring complete satisfaction with their accommodations. Also, we check them out of their room making sure their billing is accurate.
