We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we have "POSITION SUMMARY:" which is about the role. Also "RESPONSIBILITIES:", "QUALIFICATIONS:", "EDUCATION:", "COMPENSATION:", "BENEFITS:", "WORK ENVIRONMENT:" maybe. We need to use for section headings (e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use
for section headings (e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones.
We need to decide which sections to include. The posting includes: About Advanced Energy (company description) maybe not needed as a section? The instructions: Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have sections: About the role (position summary), Responsibilities, Qualifications (maybe combine required and preferred), Education (maybe part of qualifications), Benefits, Pay (compensation), Work Environment (maybe not in list but could be a section like "Work Environment" but not in given examples; but we can still use heading if content exists. However they said "e.g." not exclusive. So we can include Work Environment as a heading if appropriate.
We must not include sections with filler. All sections have real content.
We need to remove boilerplate: EEO statement, accommodation request, etc. Also remove duplicated lines.
We need to preserve all substantive information: company description maybe not needed but could be part of "About the role"? Actually "About Advanced Energy" is company overview, not role. Might be considered not needed but could be included as part of "About the role"? The instruction says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities...). So "About the role" corresponds to position summary. The company overview could be omitted as not required? But they said preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep company description somewhere. Could be placed in a
before sections, not as a heading. That's allowed.
Thus output: start with a
containing company overview (About Advanced Energy). Then
About the role
with containing position summary. Then
Responsibilities
with - each responsibility. Then
Qualifications
with maybe split into Required and Preferred? Could use - for each bullet. Could separate required and preferred with headings? But we shouldn't create extra headings unless needed. Could just list all qualifications (required and preferred) as bullet list, maybe marking preferred? But we need to preserve detail: we can separate into Required and Preferred using or just keep as bullet list with indication. Since we cannot invent headings not in list? We could still use
but not specified. Safer to keep as one qualifications section with bullet list, and within bullets we can note "Required:" or "Preferred:" as text.
Similarly Education could be part of Qualifications; but we have separate EDUCATION section. Could merge into Qualifications to avoid thin sections. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine Education into Qualifications. But we need to preserve all info; we can include education bullets within Qualifications.
Compensation: we have COMPENSATION section with pay range. So we create Pay
with
containing the range.
Benefits: we have BENEFITS section with details. So
Benefits
with - each benefit.
Work Environment: we have WORK ENVIRONMENT: Location, Environment, Hands-on work. Could be a section
Work Environment
with or
.
We must not include sections like Schedule (not present). Also not include Requirements separate if we have Qualifications.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO statement, accommodation request, etc. Also remove duplicated lines (maybe none). Also remove application instructions (like "If you require assistance...").
