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. We need to parse the job description. Content: - Job Description: "This Opportunity WSP, a world-class multi-disciplinary engineering consulting firm, is seeking an experienced Lead Consultant - Fire and Life Safety Engineering for our Denver, CO office. We work closely with architects and owners from around the world on large, complex projects with a focus on sustainability and energy performance of the built environment.

List of responsibilities: - Interpretation of building code, life safety, and fire code requirements. This will include familiarity with both ICC and NFPA codes, including IBC and NFPA 101. - Negotiating with authorities having jurisdiction on fire safety designs and proposals. - Review of architectural drawings for compliance with building and fire code requirements. - Producing fire and life safety strategy documents with limited guidance to inform and support the chosen building form throughout the design process. - Design of fire protection and life safety systems including automatic fire sprinkler systems, fire detection and alarm systems, smoke management systems, and egress systems. - Commissioning of fire protection and life safety systems in commercial, institutional and industrial facilities. - Directly interfacing with clients. - Organizing in-house resources. - Following quality control review processes of all project documentation. - Developing project proposals and budgets. - Conducting financial management of all projects. - Mentoring junior staff. - Preparing technical reports/specifications. - Participating in department initiatives. - Contributing to the overall business development of the company.

Then "Preferred Qualifications": Health Care experience. Then "WSP Benefits": description. Then "Compensation Expected Salary (Colorado only): $115,200 - $120,000". Also note about range. Then "About WSP" description. We need to produce sections: maybe "About the role" (intro paragraph), "Responsibilities" (list), "Requirements" (maybe combine required qualifications?), "Qualifications" (maybe preferred?), "Skills" (maybe communication?), "Benefits", "Pay". Schedule not present, so omit. We must not repeat job title as heading. Also not include Job ID etc. We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not include boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. We need to remove the "About WSP" maybe considered boilerplate? It's substantive about company but maybe not required? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." We can include About WSP as a section maybe "About the company". But headings list only includes specific headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should map content to those headings. "About the role" could be the introductory paragraph describing the opportunity and role. "Responsibilities" list. "Requirements" could be required qualifications. "Qualifications" could be preferred qualifications. "Skills" maybe communication skills? But we already have communication in required qualifications. Could also include "Excellent verbal and written communication skills" as skill. But we might not need separate Skills section if it's thin. Better to combine communication under Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe we have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (including required qualifications and skills), Benefits, Pay. Possibly also Qualifications (preferred). But that's many. Could combine required and preferred under Requirements? But they differentiate required vs preferred. Could have Requirements (required) and Qualifications (preferred). That's two sections plus About the role, Responsibilities, Benefits, Pay = 5 sections. That's okay. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual content. We must not include duplicated lines. Ensure we don't repeat. Now produce HTML:

Pay

Expected salary (Colorado only): $115,200 – $120,000. WSP USA states that this range reflects what the company in good faith believes it might pay and/or offer for this position within Colorado, based on the successful applicant’s education, experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities, internal equity, and specific geographic location. WSP USA reserves the right to ultimately pay more or less than the posted range and offer additional benefits and other compensation, depending on circumstances not related to an applicant’s sex or other status protected by local, state, and/or federal law.

We should not include schedule. Also ensure no extra whitespace. Check for any boilerplate: We removed EEO, legal, etc. The "About WSP" paragraph we omitted; we used only the intro about role. The "About WSP" description is not needed per headings; we could omit as it's not under allowed headings. The instruction: "Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It says e.g., not limited to those, but we should prefer those. It says "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it". So we could add "About the company" but not in list; better to stick to allowed headings. So we omitted About WSP. Check duplication: We didn't repeat. Check that we preserved all substantive info: The intro paragraph captured the opportunity description. Did we miss "We work closely with architects and owners from around the world on large, complex projects with a focus on sustainability and energy performance of the built environment. Our engineers work on high quality, high-profile, national and international projects." Yes included. Responsibilities captured all bullet points. Requirements captured all required qualifications. Qualifications captured preferred (Health Care experience). Note we also had "Preferred Qualifications Health Care experience". Good. Benefits captured. Pay captured. We omitted "Compensation Expected Salary (Colorado only): $115,200 - $120,000" and the explanation about range. We included that. We omitted the sentence about "WSP USA is providing the compensation range that the company in good faith believes it might pay and/or offer for this position within the state of Colorado, based on the successful applicant’s education, experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities in addition to internal equity and specific geographic location. WSP USA reserves the right to ultimately pay more or less than the posted range and offer additional benefits and other compensation, depending on circumstances not related to an applicant’s sex or other status protected by local, state, and/or federal law." We included a paraphrased version but we must preserve ALL substantive information; we cannot summarize away detail. We need to keep the exact wording? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we must not summarize; we need to keep the exact sentences. However we can keep them as is, maybe as a

. We should not paraphrase. Let's include the exact text from the posting: "Compensation Expected Salary (Colorado only): $115,200 - $120,000 WSP USA is providing the compensation range that the company in good faith believes it might pay and/or offer for this position within the state of Colorado, based on the successful applicant’s education, experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities in addition to internal equity and specific geographic location. WSP USA reserves the right to ultimately pay more or less than the posted range and offer additional benefits and other compensation, depending on circumstances not related to an applicant’s sex or other status protected by local, state, and/or federal law." We need to keep that as a paragraph. Could split into sentences but keep content. Thus for Pay section we should put that exact text. Now check if any other substantive info: "About WSP ABOUT US ..." we omitted; but that is substantive about company. However we don't have a heading for About the company; but we could include it under "About the role"? That section already about role; adding company description might be okay but could be considered extra. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Adding company info to About the role may make it less
