The user wants me to reformat a job posting into clean, well-structured semantic HTML. I need to follow the rules carefully: 1. Use

for section headings (About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule) 2. Use
  • for lists of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose 3. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading 4. Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it 5. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail 6. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions 7. Include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text 8. Never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them 9. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones 10. Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences Let me analyze the job posting content: - "Who We Are" - company description - "OUR VALUES" - values list - "Type of Vacancy: Contractor (1099)" - metadata - "Start Date: November-December 2026" - metadata - "Location: New York, NY" - metadata - "Compensation: ..." - pay details (day rates) - "Areas of Expertise: ..." - expertise description - "About The Department" - department description - "About The Role" - role description with responsibilities - "Essential Qualifications" - qualifications with subsections - "Values, Skills, And Competencies" - skills/competencies - "Preferred Qualifications" - preferred qualifications - "About Coaching/Facilitation Roles At Teaching Lab" - more details about the role - "TRAVEL" - travel requirement - "CLOSING/REVIEW DATE" - metadata - "APPLICATION TERMS AND CONDITIONS" - boilerplate legal text (should remove) I need to structure this into appropriate sections. Let me think about the sections: 1. About the role (or About the position) - could combine "About The Role" and "About The Department" and "Areas of Expertise" 2. Responsibilities - from "About The Role" bullet points 3. Requirements / Qualifications - from "Essential Qualifications" and "Values, Skills, And Competencies" 4. Preferred Qualifications - separate section 5. Compensation / Pay - from "Compensation" section 6. Schedule / Travel - from "TRAVEL" and "About Coaching/Facilitation Roles" (flexible, project-based) 7. About the organization - from "Who We Are" and "OUR VALUES" But the rules say: "use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)". So I should use those standard headings where appropriate. Also: "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it)" - the job title isn't explicitly given but it's "Facilitator/Coach" from the role description. Let me organize: - About the organization (Who We Are + Values) - About the role (About The Role + About The Department + Areas of Expertise) - Responsibilities (from About The Role bullet points) - Qualifications (Essential Qualifications - education, experience, knowledge) - Skills & Competencies (Values, Skills, And Competencies) - Preferred Qualifications - Compensation (Pay) - day rates - Schedule & Travel (Travel requirement + flexible project-based nature) - Additional Information (Type of vacancy, start date, location, closing date) - maybe as a short paragraph I should remove the APPLICATION TERMS AND CONDITIONS entirely as it's boilerplate legal text. Also, the "Type of Vacancy: Contractor (1099)" and "Start Date: November-December 2026" and "Location: New York, NY" and "CLOSING/REVIEW DATE" are metadata - fold into a short

    or drop. I'll include them in a brief "Position Details" paragraph. Now, let me write the HTML. I'll start with About the organization:

    About the organization

    Teaching Lab is a nonprofit organization with a mission to fundamentally shift the paradigm of teacher professional learning. We envision a world where teachers and students thrive together in communities that enable life-long learning and meaningful lives.

    Values

    • Collaboration & Responsive Service
    • Resilient Solution-Finding
    • Research & Learning With Humility
    • Accountable Excellence
    • Equity & Justice
    But the rules say "use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)". It doesn't say "About the organization" but it's a reasonable heading. However, the example list includes "About the role" but not "About the organization". But the rule says "e.g." meaning examples. I think it's fine. Alternatively, I could fold the organization description into "About the role" but that seems separate. I'll keep it. Now, About the role:

    This is a project-based, flexible contractor role with no guaranteed hours. The number of service hours and specific hours depend on project availability and contractor availability.

    Position Details (metadata):

    Position details

    Type: Contractor (1099). Start date: November–December 2026. Location: New York, NY. Position opened October 17, 2026 and remains open until filled.

    But the rules say "Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it." So I can include a short paragraph with metadata. I'll use a heading "Position details" but that's not in the example list. However, the rule says "use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)". It doesn't forbid other headings, but says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe I should fold the metadata into an existing section or a brief paragraph without a heading. But the metadata is substantive? It's minor. I'll include it as a paragraph at the end without a heading, or maybe under "Schedule & travel". But better to have a short paragraph at the end. Alternatively, I could include it in "About the role" or "Schedule & travel". I'll add
