We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions). Also remove duplicated lines. Must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. The posting includes Benefits: "Farmers offers a competitive salary commensurate with experience, qualifications and location.CA Only: $22.82 - $38.61Paid Time OffFor more information, review “What we offer” on https://www.farmers.com/careers/corporate/#offer". So there is a pay range and benefits mention. So we can include Benefits section with that info. Pay section? The instruction says: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. The posting states salary range and Paid Time Off. That's benefits and pay. Should we separate Pay and Benefits? The instruction says we can have sections for Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Since we have pay info, we could include a Pay section with the salary range. Benefits section could include Paid Time Off and maybe other benefits? The posting also mentions "competitive benefits" but not detailed. We have Paid Time Off. So we could include Benefits section with Paid Time Off. Also maybe mention "competitive salary" as Pay. We'll decide: Pay section: salary range. Benefits section: Paid Time Off. Also maybe mention "competitive benefits" generically but that's vague; better to only include concrete info: Paid Time Off. Schedule: posting says "available approximately 20 hours/week during the semester", "Generally works on a part time basis approximately 20 hours per week." So we have schedule info: part-time ~20 hrs/week. So we can include Schedule section. Now other sections: About the role: we have introductory paragraph about Farmers culture etc. That's about the role? Could be "About the role" or "About Farmers". The instruction: use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can include About the role with the introductory paragraph about Farmers culture and mission. Responsibilities: list of essential job functions (research, analyze, prepare briefs, review complaints, prepare pleadings, assist trial attorney, attend court sessions, etc). Those are responsibilities. Requirements: maybe education requirements and experience requirements. Could be under Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction includes both Requirements and Qualifications as possible headings. We need to decide which to use. We have Education Requirements: Bachelors Degree required. Experience Requirements: Second or third year law student with interest in civil litigation, personal injury or insurance defense required. Also Preferred candidate will be in third year of law school, have some experience drafting motions, available approx 20 hrs/week. That's also requirements. We could combine into Requirements section. Qualifications could be similar but we can just use Requirements. Skills: maybe not explicitly listed; we have drafting motions, legal research, etc. Could be considered skills but not explicit list. Better to omit Skills if no explicit list. Now we must remove boilerplate: EEO statements, legal disclaimers, application instructions, duplicated lines, navigation, cookie, etc. Also remove the "Workplace: Remote ( )" line? That's minor metadata; we can fold into short p or drop. Probably drop. Also remove "Connect with us on Instagram, LinkedIn and TikTok" etc. That's boilerplate. Also remove "Want to learn more about our culture & opportunities? Check out www.Farmers.com/careers/corporate and be sure to follow us on Instagram, LinkedIn, and TikTok." That's boilerplate. Also remove the lines about Spokane, WA only etc. That's location-specific but maybe not needed? It's about alternative application method; could be considered application instruction; we should remove. Also remove "Anticipated application deadline: At Farmers, the recruitment process is designed to ensure that we find the best talent to join our team. As part of this process, we typically close open positions within 8 to 21 days after posting. If you are interested in any of our open positions, we encourage you to submit your application promptly." That's application instruction/boilerplate; remove. Also remove "Farmers will consider for employment all qualified applicants, including those with criminal histories, in accordance with the Los Angeles Fair Chance Initiative for Hiring Ordinance or other applicable law." That's EEO/legal; remove. Also remove the long list of protected classes etc. Remove. Also remove "Pursuant to 18 U.S.C. Section 1033, Farmers is prohibited from employing any individual who has been convicted of any criminal felony involving dishonesty or a breach of trust without prior written consent from the state Department of Insurance." Remove. Also remove "It is unlawful in Massachusetts to require or administer a lie detector test as a condition of employment or continued employment." Remove. Also remove "An employer who violates this law shall be subject to criminal penalties and civil liability." Remove. Also remove "Farmers is an Equal Opportunity Employer and does not discriminate..." Remove. Also remove "Ready to make your mark? Discover our vibrant culture and explore career opportunities at www.Farmers.com/careers/corporate." That's promotional; maybe keep as part of About the role? It's more like call to action; but could be considered boilerplate. I'd remove. Now we need to preserve all substantive information: the description of Farmers culture, mission, etc. The "We are Farmers – where ambition meets opportunity..." paragraph is substantive about company culture. Keep. Also "Our Southern California Staff Counsel team is looking to add a law clerk to the team!" That's role intro. Also "Preferred candidate will be in their third year of law school, have some experience drafting motions, and available approximately 20 hours/week during the semester. This is a virtual position!" That's part of requirements. Also "Job Summary Conducts legal research, assembles case materials, writes research memos and drafts, pleadings and motions under the guidance and mentorship of an Attorney or Supervising Attorney. Supports attorneys by assembling and organizing information for legal documents. Generally works on a part time basis approximately 20 hours per week." That's summary. Essential Job Functions list. Physical Actions and Physical Environment: maybe we could include under Responsibilities? But they are not duties; they are physical demands. Could be omitted? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information. So we need to keep them. Where to place? Could be under Requirements? Or maybe a separate section like "Physical Requirements". But we only have allowed headings list; we could put them under Requirements or Qualifications. Since they are not exactly requirements but physical demands. Could be under Requirements as they are job requirements. We'll include them under Requirements as bullet points. Education Requirements and Experience Requirements: we can include under Requirements. Benefits: we have Paid Time Off and salary range. Pay: salary range. Schedule: part-time ~20 hrs/week. Now we need to format lists with
  • . For prose use

    . We must not repeat job title as heading. No job title given explicitly; it's "law clerk". We'll not add heading for it. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; none present. Now produce HTML fragment. Structure:
