We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Key sections: - About the role: The description about INDOT and role overview. Could be "About The Indiana Department Of Transportation" and "Role Overview".

Also maybe knowledge of electronic data processing, bookkeeping procedures (additional requirements). Also "A Degree Is Not Required." Also supervisory responsibilities? Might be under Requirements or separate? Could be "Supervisory Responsibilities/Direct Reports". Might be a separate section but we only have allowed headings; we could put under Requirements or Skills. Probably under Requirements. - Qualifications: Could be education not required, etc. Might be overlapping with Requirements. We need to decide which sections to include. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we can combine similar info. We have Pay: Pay Rate: starts at $20/hour, may be commensurate with education and experience. CDL positions get +$1/hour. So we have specific pay info. So we include Pay section. Benefits: The State of Indiana offers comprehensive benefit package: list many items. So Benefits section. Schedule: Not explicitly mentioned. There's mention of mandatory overtime for emergency operations, including winter. Also workday attendance essential. No specific schedule like shift hours. So we might not include Schedule because no concrete schedule info. The rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. So we skip Schedule. We also need to include maybe "About the role" heading. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, navigation, legal, etc. Remove Equal Employment Opportunity paragraph.

We need to output HTML with headings

for each section we include. We need to decide sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay. Possibly also Qualifications? But we can merge qualifications into Requirements. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we can have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay. That's five sections. We must not include Schedule. Now we need to format content: Use

for prose,

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. We need to ensure we don't repeat job title. We need to preserve all substantive info; not invent or summarize away detail. We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience" - but that is actual text in posting: "Pay Rate This position traditionally starts at an hourly rate of $20.00 but may be commensurate with education and work experience." That's a specific statement; we can keep it. It's not filler like "not specified". It's okay. We need to remove boilerplate: EEO paragraph, navigation, legal, etc. Also remove "Equal Employment Opportunity" section. Also remove "Free Parking for most positions" etc? That's part of benefits, keep. We need to remove "Workday attendance at assigned worksite(s) is an essential function of this position." That's substantive, keep. We need to remove "The job description is not designed to cover or contain a comprehensive listing of activities, duties or responsibilities that are required of the employee. Other duties, responsibilities and activities may change or be assigned at any time." That's substantive? It's a disclaimer but still part of job description. Might be considered boilerplate? It's a typical disclaimer but still part of posting. The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. This disclaimer might be considered legal boilerplate. It's a typical "job description not comprehensive" line. Might be considered boilerplate. Safer to remove? The instruction says remove legal boilerplate. That line is legal disclaimer. So we should remove it. Similarly, "A Degree Is Not Required." is substantive? It's a qualification statement. Keep. We need to keep "Supervisory Responsibilities/Direct Reports This role may be utilized in a supervisory capacity based on agency needs." That's substantive. Now we need to structure. Let's draft HTML:
