We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Preserve all substantive info. Let's parse the posting: - Overview: "To learn more about this role, watch our merchandisers in action." then "Job Overview As a Merchandiser, you'll have the opportunity to work independently to showcase your organization and time management skills, your ability to establish retailer relationships, while being the face of Hallmark. You will collaborate with local store teams to optimize product placement and maintain inventory levels as well as support fellow team members with seasonal resets and installations, when needed. On occasion you may have the opportunity to work with other products from other companies in the stores that you service." That's about the role. Could be "About the role" section. - SALARY AND SCHEDULE DETAILS: Starting hourly pay rate $17.00- $19.00 per hour depending on skills and experience. Paid training (live hands-on, virtual). Hallmark part time employees offered voluntary benefits that include medical, dental, vision etc. Eligible Employees receive annual pay increases. This is a Part-Time position with a variable schedule during the work week. Average weekly hours between 8 - 10 hours per week. Availability the week before and after major holidays, which may include weekends is required. Availability to support season changeovers, extended services, installations, and inventory support. Thus we have Pay, Schedule, Benefits sections. - Your Role And Responsibilities Will Include: bullet list of duties: service work in Hallmark department of various retail stores; three major components: Day-to-day engagement (using mobile device to restock, organize, monitor inventory; use of technology; professional interaction); Holiday support (additional days/extended hours leading up to/following holidays; may work on actual holiday); Department Resets (team responsible for installations, building/installing fixtures, relocating card departments/products, resetting card sections; notified two weeks in advance; could include evenings/weekends); One Team Vision (part of network supporting other team members). Also Physical Requirements: physically demanding; push/pull/lift/carry up to 30 lbs frequently, 50 occasionally; kneel, squat, walk, stand; climb stairs/step ladders. Thus Responsibilities section can include these duties. - Basic Qualifications: list: at least 18; able to read/write/understand English; ability to grasp/pull/lift/carry up to 30 lbs frequently and 50 occasionally; able to operate a digital hand-held device to open/read documents and interpret information; access to Wi-Fi and internet; access to consistent transportation to travel to/between assigned stores as scheduled. Also note part-time employees with schedule less than 30 hours have access to voluntary benefits (but that's benefits). Also "Prior to applying, watch our merchandisers in action." etc. Also "You must show how you meet the basic qualifications in a resume..." That's application instruction, we should remove application instructions. Also "Accepted file types are DOCX and PDF." Remove. Also repeated benefits line. Also legal boilerplate: Immigration Reform and Control Act, sponsorship, Employment Agreement, arbitration, Form I-9, background check, EEO statement, Principals only please, Hallmark description. Remove those. Thus we have sections: About the role (overview), Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe Basic Qualifications), Qualifications (maybe same as Requirements? but we need to decide). The instruction says use headings for section headings e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should include only those with real content. We have content for About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (basic qualifications), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Possibly Skills? Not explicitly listed; maybe we could infer skills from responsibilities but better not to invent. Qualifications maybe same as Requirements? Could combine but we need separate headings only if content distinct. The posting has "Basic Qualifications". Could treat that as Requirements. Could also have "Qualifications" maybe same. To avoid duplication, we could put Requirements for basic qualifications, and maybe Qualifications for any preferred qualifications? Not present. So we omit Qualifications. Skills: Not explicitly listed; we could maybe include skills like organization, time management, retailer relationships, communication, technology use, physical stamina. But those are in responsibilities/overview. Better not to create a Skills section unless explicit. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can omit Skills. Thus final HTML:

About the role

...overview...

Responsibilities

  • ...list items...

Requirements

  • ...basic qualifications...

Benefits

  • ...benefits...

Pay

...pay details...

Schedule

...schedule details...

We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not omit any substantive info. Let's extract details precisely. About the role paragraph: combine the overview sentences. Original: "To learn more about this role, watch our merchandisers in action. Job Overview As a Merchandiser, you'll have the opportunity to work independently to showcase your organization and time management skills, your ability to establish retailer relationships, while being the face of Hallmark. You will collaborate with local store teams to optimize product placement and maintain inventory levels as well as support fellow team members with seasonal resets and installations, when needed. On occasion you may have the opportunity to work with other products from other companies in the stores that you service." We should remove the first sentence "To learn more about this role, watch our merchandisers in action." as it's like a call to action maybe considered boilerplate? It's not exactly boilerplate but it's a promotional line. Might be considered part of overview but it's not substantive job description. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. That line is not exactly those categories but could be considered promotional. However it's not essential job info. Safer to keep? It says "To learn more about this role, watch our merchandisers in action." That's like a link to video. Might be considered application instruction? Not exactly. But we could keep it as part of overview? It's not substantive about role. I'd lean to omit it as it's not a duty/requirement. The overview paragraph after that is substantive. We'll start with "As a Merchandiser, you'll have the opportunity..." Thus About the role paragraph: "As a Merchandiser, you'll have the opportunity to work independently to showcase your organization and time management skills, your ability to establish retailer relationships, while being the face of Hallmark. You will collaborate with local store teams to optimize product placement and maintain inventory levels as well as support fellow team members with seasonal resets and installations, when needed. On occasion you may have the opportunity to work with other products from other companies in the stores that you service." Now Responsibilities: need to capture all duties from "Your Role And Responsibilities Will Include" and the three components plus Physical Requirements. Let's list: - You'll perform service work in the Hallmark department of various retail stores such as grocery stores, drug stores, department stores, and mass retailers. - The retail merchandiser position consists of three major components: 1. Day-to-day engagement: - Utilizing a mobile device provided by Hallmark, you'll restock, organize, and monitor the inventory of Hallmark products within and outside the Hallmark department. - The use of technology is critical in this role, for the day-to-day work as well as communication with your supervisor, reporting time, providing feedback, and answering surveys for required merchandising activities. - Professional and courteous interaction with store employees, management, and customers is also vital for success in this role. - You are responsible for the entire Hallmark product display at your assigned stores. 2. Holiday support: - Hallmark's operations revolve around seasonal demand. Leading up to and following holidays such as Valentine's Day, Easter, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas, you can expect additional days and extended hours during the work week. - On occasions like Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, and Father's Day, you may be required to work on the actual holiday itself, which may include the weekend. 3. Department Resets: - At times, you may be part of a team responsible for installations and various tasks like building and installing Hallmark fixtures, relocating card departments and products, as well as resetting card sections. - Typically, you will be notified two weeks in advance for remodel assignments. - This could include evenings or weekend. 4. One Team Vision: - As part of Hallmark's field organization, you are part of a network of merchandisers professionals that often times will support other team members as needed in their territories. - Physical Requirements: - This is a physically demanding job that requires a high level of energy and a sense of urgency. - You will be working on the selling floor as well as in back stockrooms. - You must be able to consistently push, pull, lift, and carry cartons, merchandise, and display fixtures up to 30 pounds throughout the workday and up to 50 pounds on occasion. - You will also be required to kneel, squat, walk, and stand throughout your workday, and you may be required to climb stairs and step ladders. We need to put these as
  • items. Could group under subheadings? Not allowed; only

    headings. So we can just list all responsibilities as list items, preserving detail. We must not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep each point as separate list item, maybe combine related sentences but keep meaning. Let's craft list items: - Perform service work in the Hallmark department of various retail stores such as grocery stores, drug stores, department stores, and mass retailers. - Utilize a mobile device provided by Hallmark to restock, organize, and monitor inventory of Hallmark products within and outside the Hallmark department. - Use technology for day-to-day work, communication with supervisor, reporting time, providing feedback, and answering surveys for required merchandising activities. - Interact professionally and courteously with store employees, management, and customers. - Be responsible for the entire Hallmark product display at assigned stores. - Provide holiday support: work additional days and extended hours leading up to and following holidays such as Valentine's Day, Easter, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas; may be required to work on the actual holiday (including weekends) for occasions like Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, and Father's Day. - Participate in department resets: assist with installations, building and installing Hallmark fixtures, relocating card departments and products, and resetting card sections; typically notified two weeks in advance for remodel assignments, which may include evenings or weekends. - Support other team members as needed as part of Hallmark's field organization network of merchandisers. - Meet physical demands: work on selling floor and back stockrooms; consistently push, pull, lift, and carry up to 30 pounds frequently and up to 50 pounds occasionally; kneel, squat, walk, stand throughout workday; may climb stairs and step ladders. That covers all.
