We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we need to use

We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, no invented details. Remove boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Also remove navigation, cookie, application instructions (like "Now's your chance to Make Your Mark—just follow the instructions below to apply." etc). Also remove duplicated lines. We need to parse the posting. Key content: - Job Overview: description of role: work independently, showcase organization and time management, ability to establish retailer relationships, face of Hallmark, collaborate with local store teams to optimize product placement and maintain inventory, support fellow team members with seasonal resets and installations, occasional work with other products from other companies. - SALARY AND SCHEDULE DETAILS: Starting hourly pay rate $15.00 - $17.00 per hour depending on skills and experience. Paid training (live hands-on and 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 8-10 hours per week. Availability the week before and after major holidays, which may include weekends required. Availability to support season changeovers, extended services, installations, and inventory support. - Your Role And Responsibilities Will Include: service work in Hallmark department of various retail stores (grocery, drug, department, mass retailers). Retail merchandiser position consists of three major components: Day-to-day engagement: using mobile device provided by Hallmark to restock, organize, monitor inventory of Hallmark products within and outside Hallmark department. Use of technology critical for day-to-day work, communication with supervisor, reporting time, providing feedback, answering surveys for required merchandising activities. Professional and courteous interaction with store employees, management, customers vital. Responsible for entire Hallmark product display at assigned stores. Holiday support: leading up to and following holidays (Valentine's Day, Easter, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas) expect additional days and extended hours; on occasions like Valentine's, Mother's, Father's Day may be required to work on actual holiday itself, which may include weekend. Department Resets: at times part of team responsible for installations and tasks like building/installing Hallmark fixtures, relocating card departments and products, resetting card sections; notified two weeks in advance for remodel assignments; could include evenings or weekend. One Team Vision: part of network of merchandisers professionals that often support other team members as needed in their territories. - Physical Requirements: physically demanding job requiring high level of energy and sense of urgency. Work on selling floor and back stockrooms. Must be able to consistently push, pull, lift, carry cartons, merchandise, display fixtures up to 30 pounds throughout workday and up to 50 pounds occasionally. Also required to kneel, squat, walk, stand throughout workday, may be required to climb stairs and step ladders. - Basic Qualifications: at least 18 years of age.

Have access to consistent transportation to travel to and between assigned stores as scheduled. Part-time employees with work schedule less than 30 hours have access to a variety of voluntary benefits through Voluntary Benefits including dental, vision, critical illness, accident insurance, hospital indemnity and minimum essential coverage (preventive care). (Note this repeats later.) - Prior to applying, watch our merchandisers in action. (Probably boilerplate/instruction; we should remove application instructions.) - Also repeated benefits line again. - Immigration Reform etc: legal boilerplate; remove. - Hallmark is an equal opportunity employer: remove. - Principals only please: maybe not needed. - Hallmark – Because Connecting...: corporate blurb; maybe considered boilerplate? It's about company culture; could be considered "About the role"? Not exactly. It's generic marketing. Might be considered boilerplate; but it's not navigation/legal/EEO. It's about Hallmark mission. Might be considered substantive? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. This corporate blurb is not explicitly listed; but it's not about the role specifics. It's more generic. Might be considered filler. Safer to omit. Thus we need sections: About the role (maybe from Job Overview), Responsibilities (Your Role And Responsibilities Will Include), Requirements (maybe Physical Requirements + Basic Qualifications?), Qualifications (maybe Basic Qualifications?), Skills (maybe not explicit), Benefits (voluntary benefits etc), Pay (salary range), Schedule (part-time variable schedule, average hours, availability). We must not create sections with placeholder text. We need to decide which headings to use. The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can choose any of those that have content. We need to avoid duplicate content. Let's extract content for each: About the role: Could be the Job Overview 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." That seems appropriate. Responsibilities: The "Your Role And Responsibilities Will Include" section with bullet points (though not bullet in source). We can convert to
  • . Need to capture all responsibilities: service work in Hallmark department of various retail stores (grocery, drug, department, mass retailers). Three major components: Day-to-day engagement (restock, organize, monitor inventory using mobile device; use technology critical for day-to-day work, communication with supervisor, reporting time, providing feedback, answering surveys; professional courteous interaction with store employees, management, customers; responsible for entire Hallmark product display). Holiday support (leading up to/following holidays additional days/extended hours; may be required to work on actual holiday itself, which may include weekend). Department Resets (part of team responsible for installations, building/installing Hallmark fixtures, relocating card departments and products, resetting card sections; notified two weeks in advance; could include evenings/weekend). One Team Vision (part of network of merchandisers professionals that often support other team members as needed in their territories). We can break into list items. Requirements: Could be Physical Requirements? Or maybe combine Physical Requirements and Basic Qualifications as Requirements. But we also have Qualifications heading separate. Let's decide: Use Requirements for physical requirements, and Qualifications for basic qualifications (age, language, etc). Or we could combine. The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we combine Physical Requirements and Basic Qualifications into a single "Requirements" section. But we also have Qualifications as separate heading; we could use Qualifications for basic qualifications and Requirements for physical requirements. That yields two sections. Skills: Not explicitly listed; maybe we could infer from responsibilities (technology use, communication). But better not to create Skills section if no explicit content. So omit. Benefits: The posting mentions: "Hallmark part time employees are offered voluntary benefits that include medical, dental, vision etc. Eligible Employees receive annual pay increases." Also later: "Part-time employees with a work schedule less than 30 hours have access to a variety of voluntary benefits through Voluntary Benefits including dental, vision, critical illness, accident insurance, hospital indemnity and minimum essential coverage (preventive care)." This is duplicated. We need to preserve all substantive info but not duplicate. So we can combine: voluntary benefits include medical, dental, vision, critical illness, accident insurance, hospital indemnity, minimum essential coverage (preventive care). Also annual pay increases. Also paid training (live hands-on and virtual). That's a benefit? Could be considered benefit but maybe belongs to Pay/Schedule? We'll include paid training under Benefits or maybe under About the role? It's a benefit. We'll include in Benefits. Pay: Starting hourly pay rate $15.00 - $17.00 per hour depending on skills and experience. Schedule: Part-Time position with variable schedule during work week. Average weekly hours 8-10 hours per week. Availability the week before and after major holidays, which may include weekends required. Availability to support season changeovers, extended services, installations, and inventory support. We should not include placeholder like "commensurate with experience" etc. We have actual numbers. Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no /, no markdown fences. We'll produce something like:
