We need to output HTML with sections.
We can have:
About the role
... (introductory prose) ...
But we need to decide what to put in About the role. The initial paragraph: "It is the responsibility of each individual at AWG to provide ultimate customer service to our members to support their efforts in increasing same store sales and profits." That's a prose sentence. Could be placed there.
Alternatively we could skip About the role and just have Responsibilities and Qualifications. The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have two sections: Responsibilities and Qualifications (or Requirements). But they want headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can choose to include only those with content.
We have Responsibilities content. We have Qualifications content (education, experience, language, math, reasoning, certificates, other skills, physical demands, work environment, competencies). That's a lot; we could combine into a single Qualifications section with sublists.
We could also include Skills section (maybe combine language, math, reasoning, other skills). But to avoid many thin sections, we can put all under Qualifications.
Thus output:
Responsibilities
- ...
...
Qualifications
Then we need to include all qualification details. Could use for prose sections and
- for lists.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include each bullet as list items.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Not needed.
We must not include Job ID etc.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. None.
We must not include placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
Now produce HTML.
We need to ensure proper nesting:
then either
or
- . For qualification details that are not lists (like the introductory sentence about qualification requirements) we can put in
. Then each subheading (Education and/or Experience, Language Skills, etc.) we could treat as
? But instruction only mentions for section headings. It didn't forbid other headings, but we should follow the rule: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It didn't say we cannot use other headings, but to be safe we can avoid extra headings and just use
with bold? But we need to preserve structure. Could use
Education and/or Experience: then list.
Better: Use
for each subsection heading, then
- for its list.
Thus:
Qualifications
Education and/or Experience:
- Retail grocery store or grocery wholesale experience preferred.
- Degree not required, but equivalent work experience in retail preferred; minimum of 5 years related experience in the preferred fields of grocery retail or wholesale; or equivalent combination of education and experience, with minimum 3 years in management.
Then Language Skills etc.
We also need to include the introductory sentence about qualification requirements: "To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential duty satisfactorily. The requirements listed below are representative of the knowledge, skill, and/or ability required. A reasonable accommodation will be considered according to the ADA if it would not impose an undue hardship on the operations of the business without significant difficulty or expense. The accommodation would permit a qualified employee the ability to perform all essential functions of the job within the safety and contractual guidelines of the position."
We can put that as a before the subsections.
Now Physical Demands and Work Environment are paragraphs; we can put them as
with the text.
Competencies: we can put as
Competencies:
then - each competency.
Now we need to ensure we don't miss any details.
Let's extract each piece precisely.
