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 need to extract content from posting. Let's parse: - Title: Hourly Route Sales position (but we don't repeat title as heading). - Pay: "$18.00-$20.00 an hour based on experience, with overtime for any hours over 40." - Schedule: "Monday-Friday approximately 45-55 hours a week." - Benefits: multiple paragraphs: "This position is full-time benefit eligible, elective benefits include: Medical, dental, hearing and vision insurance. Marathon Health Clinic ... Opportunity to contribute to a 401k with a generous Company Match Program, Annual Company Profit Sharing. Paid vacation, holiday and sick time. Paid Employee referral program." Then later "Benefit (Details)" with more details: "Herr’s is proud to offer a variety of quality benefits and wellness programs where we have been recognized as a 5-time Well Workplace Award winner in the area! Elective benefits include medical, dental, vision and hearing insurance; long term disability, life insurance, accident, hospital and critical illness indemnity plans, critical illness indemnity plans, identity theft coverage, and legal plans. The company also provides opportunities to contribute to a 401k with generous company matching, annual company profit sharing, vacation, sick and holiday pay; EAP services, and tuition reimbursement. Benefits start the first of the month following 30 days of service (unless otherwise noted in plan description). Also enjoy low or no cost medical care through our Assured Excellence Program which provides high quality health care for orthopedic procedures, cancer treatments, cardiac surgery and care, along with treatment for many other conditions. Assured Excellence Program partners with nationally renowned facilities such as John Hopkins, Cleveland Clinic, Shriners Children’s Hospital, Hazelden Betty Ford, and others. OSS Health Company Direct Program, based in York, PA, is available to benefit-eligible employees offering bundled package rates for orthopedic care and imaging." We need to combine benefits content into a Benefits section. - Job Summary: "Safely drives step-van delivery truck over any assigned route to sell, deliver, and merchandise products, as well as provide excellent customer service to a variety of grocery, mass merchandise, and independent chain stores." - Qualifications: list of requirements: Must be at least 18, valid driver's license, excellent driving record, no more than 2 moving violations past 3 years, no DUI past 3 years, high school diploma or GED, pass job-related assessment 70%+, contingent upon drug test, random drug testing, able to read/write/speak English, stable work history, good references, sound judgment, adapt quickly, strong communication, persuasion, organizational skills, ability to work fast-paced, manage priorities. - Physical Demands: "Constantly reaching; frequently sitting, standing, walking, bending, squatting, kneeling, climbing, driving and lifting up to 32 pounds Occasionally lifting and carrying up to 48 pounds and pushing or pulling up to 40 pounds" - Key Duties & Responsibilities: list of duties: Sell, deliver, stock and merchandise Herr's brand snack foods to grocery retail and independent chain stores. Progressively increase current customer sales volume. This includes and is not limited to: Building relationships with key decision makers, Providing excellent customer service, Inquiring about customer needs, Communicating product knowledge and suggestive selling, Increase customer base by soliciting new accounts, Execute company sponsored promotional programs by acquiring temporary and incremental product displays, shelving, and racks., Rotate and provide credit to accounts for stale or damaged items in order to provide the freshest product., Process orders by entering product codes into hand-held computers., Collect cash from customers and accurately process associated invoices, Manage daily accuracy of product inventory., Conduct daily pre-trip vehicle safety inspection, and maintain a clean truck. We need to decide sections: About the role (maybe job summary), Responsibilities (key duties), Requirements (qualifications?), Qualifications (maybe same as requirements?), Skills (maybe communication etc), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. We can include About the role (job summary). Responsibilities (key duties). Requirements (qualifications list). Qualifications maybe duplicate; but we can combine? The instruction: use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Skills). We need to include a section only when posting has real specific content for it. We have content for About the role (job summary). Responsibilities (key duties). Requirements (qualifications list). Qualifications maybe same as Requirements; but we could treat Requirements as the list of must-haves, and Qualifications as maybe education/license etc. However to avoid duplication, we could have Requirements covering the must-haves, and Qualifications covering education/license etc. But the posting lumps them together. Could split: Requirements: Must be at least 18, valid driver's license, excellent driving record, no more than 2 moving violations, no DUI, pass assessment, drug test, able to read/write/speak English, stable work history, good references, sound judgment, adapt quickly. Qualifications: strong communication, persuasion, organizational skills, ability to work fast-paced, manage priorities. Skills: maybe same as Qualifications? Hmm. Better: Use Requirements for the mandatory criteria (age, license, record, education, assessment, drug test, language, work history, references, judgment, adaptability). Use Skills for communication, persuasion, organizational, fast-paced, priority management. Use Qualifications maybe for education? But we already have education in Requirements. Could combine Qualifications and Skills? The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we just have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (covering all qualifications/skills), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. That's 5 sections. That seems reasonable. We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual pay and schedule. We need to output HTML fragment only, no /. Use

for each section heading. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include all details from posting. Let's craft:

    We need to ensure no duplication. Also ensure we didn't include boilerplate like EEO, contact info, etc. We removed contact lines and EEO. Also removed "Job Summary" heading as we used About the role. Check that we didn't miss any substantive info: The physical demands section: "Constantly reaching; frequently sitting, standing, walking, bending, squatting, kneeling, climbing, driving and lifting up to 32 pounds Occasionally lifting and carrying up to 48 pounds and pushing or pulling up to 40 pounds". We omitted physical demands. Should we include? It's substantive. Could be part of Requirements or a separate section like Physical Demands. Since we have a Requirements section, we could add physical demands there. But we already have Requirements list; we could add a bullet for physical demands. However the instruction says use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can add physical demands under Requirements. Let's add a bullet: "Physical demands: constantly reaching; frequently sitting, standing, walking, bending,
