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 if posting has real specific content.
We need to parse the posting.
Content:
- Intro: "Be part of future of sleep! description: company description.
- "What You'll Do:" list of duties: Assemble mattresses as outlined in established work instructions using a variety of pneumatic tools (e.g., c-ring hog-ring guns, staple guns, hot glue guns). This includes the assembly of Hot Melt Bond (HMB) units on the HMB machine; application of various, specified upholstered layers to HMB and open coil units; foam-encased pocketed coil units; application of specified upholstery layers; foam encasing and final mattress assembly.
- "How You'll Do It:" Work experience with pneumatic tools and/or in a manufacturing environment, preferred.
- "What You'll Bring:" Inspects mattress components and finished units for unacceptable flaws or structural defects.
- "Why work at Serta Simmons Bedding?" description: part of winning diverse team, inspiring career opportunities, competitive benefits, employee perks, chance to be part of future of sleep.
- "Benefits and Perks (USA, Salary non-union- optional):" list: Health, Dental, and Vision; Annual employee contribution to HSA; 401K with company match; Paid Time Off / Vacation; 12 company holidays; Sick days; Company paid short- and long-term disability; Paid parental leave; Discount programs including Friends and family discounts; Referral Bonus; Tuition Reimbursement; Employees are required to comply with COVID policies established by a vendor or customer. It is our policy to abide by all federal, state, and local laws prohibiting employment discrimination... (EEO boilerplate). Then: SSB will provide reasonable accommodations... (EEO). Then: The hiring salary range for this position applies to where legally required, and most other geographies. Starting pay for the successful applicant depends on a variety of job-related factors, including but not limited to geographic location, market demands, experience, training, and education. The benefits available for this position include medical, dental, vision, 401(k) plan, life insurance coverage, disability benefits, tuition assistance program and PTO or, if applicable, as otherwise dictated by the appropriate Collective Bargaining Agreement.
We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we need to strip the EEO paragraph and the accommodation line. Also remove "Employees are required to comply with COVID policies..." maybe that's not EEO but still maybe considered policy; but it's not specifically listed as boilerplate to remove? It says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The COVID policy line might be considered legal? It's a policy statement; but it's not EEO. However it's a generic statement; but we might keep it? The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." The COVID policy line is legal; maybe we should remove it as legal boilerplate. Safer to remove it. Also the EEO paragraph definitely remove. Also the accommodation line remove.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to keep benefits list, but we need to format as
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content.
We need to parse the posting.

We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to keep benefits list, but we need to format as - . Also we need sections: About the role (maybe the intro description), Responsibilities (What You'll Do), Requirements (How You'll Do It? maybe also What You'll Bring?), Qualifications? Skills? Benefits. Pay and Schedule only if present. Pay: they mention starting pay depends on factors, but no specific numbers. According to rule: 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. The posting does mention pay: "Starting pay for the successful applicant depends on a variety of job-related factors, including but not limited to geographic location, market demands, experience, training, and education." That's not a specific number, but it's still stating something about pay (that it depends). Is that considered filler? It's vague but it's actual statement about pay. The rule says never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD"). The phrase "depends on a variety of job-related factors" is similar to "commensurate with experience" maybe considered filler. Safer to not create Pay section because it's not a specific range or number. The rule: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state something about pay (that it depends). But is that considered stating them? It's stating that pay depends on factors, but not giving a range. I'd interpret that as not enough to warrant a Pay section. Similarly Schedule: no mention. So we omit Pay and Schedule.
Benefits: we have specific list, so we include Benefits section.
About the role: we have company description at start: "Be Part of the Future of Sleep! At Serta Simmons Bedding (SSB), we're more than a mattress company, we're a leading global sleep company with a mission to help people sleep better so they can live healthier lives. With a 150-year heritage in delivering industry-leading sleep solutions, we own iconic brands including Serta®, Beautyrest®, Simmons® and Tuft & Needle®." That's substantive. So we can put that under About the role.
Responsibilities: "What You'll Do:" list.
Requirements: maybe combine "How You'll Do It:" and "What You'll Bring:" as requirements/qualifications. Could split: Requirements (experience with pneumatic tools) and Qualifications (inspection). But we can also have a single Requirements section containing both. The instruction: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits. That's four sections.
We need to use
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
Thus:
About the role
Be Part of the Future of Sleep! At Serta Simmons Bedding (SSB), we're more than a mattress company, we're a leading global sleep company with a mission to help people sleep better so they can live healthier lives. With a 150-year heritage in delivering industry-leading sleep solutions, we own iconic brands including Serta®, Beautyrest®, Simmons® and Tuft & Needle®.
Responsibilities
- Assemble mattresses as outlined in established work instructions using a variety of pneumatic tools (e.g., c-ring hog-ring guns, staple guns, hot glue guns). This includes the assembly of Hot Melt Bond (HMB) units on the HMB machine; application of various, specified upholstered layers to HMB and open coil units; foam-encased pocketed coil units; application of specified upholstery layers; foam encasing and final mattress assembly.
But also there is "Inspects mattress components and finished units for unacceptable flaws or structural defects." That's a duty? It's under "What You'll Bring:" but it's actually a responsibility (inspection). Could include in Responsibilities as another bullet.
Thus Responsibilities list two bullets.
Requirements
- Work experience with pneumatic tools and/or in a manufacturing environment, preferred.
- Ability to inspect mattress components and finished units for unacceptable flaws or structural defects.
But the second is more a duty; but okay.
Alternatively we could have Qualifications separate. But we prefer few sections.
Benefits: list.
Benefits
- Health, Dental, and Vision
- Annual employee contribution to HSA
- 401K with company match
- Paid Time Off / Vacation
- 12 company holidays
- Sick days
- Company paid short- and long-term disability
- Paid parental leave
- Discount programs including Friends and family discounts
- Referral Bonus
- Tuition Reimbursement
- Medical, dental, vision, 401(k) plan, life insurance coverage, disability benefits, tuition assistance program and PTO (as applicable per Collective Bargaining Agreement)
We need to avoid duplication: we already listed health/dental/vision etc. The last bullet duplicates some; maybe combine. Better to keep the list as given in the posting: they listed specific items then later said benefits include medical, dental, vision, 401(k) plan, life insurance coverage, disability benefits, tuition assistance program and PTO or, if applicable, as otherwise dictated by the appropriate Collective Bargaining Agreement. That's somewhat redundant but we should preserve all substantive information; we can combine but not lose info. Could produce a single list that includes all unique items.
Let's extract unique benefits:
- Health, Dental, and Vision
- Annual employee contribution to HSA
- 401K with company match
- Paid Time Off / Vacation
- 12 company holidays
- Sick days
- Company paid short- and long-term disability
- Paid parental leave
- Discount programs including Friends and family discounts
- Referral Bonus
- Tuition Reimbursement
- Life insurance coverage
- Disability benefits (already have company paid short- and long-term disability; but disability benefits maybe broader)
- Tuition assistance program (similar to Tuition Reimbursement)
- PTO (already have Paid Time Off / Vacation)
- As applicable per Collective Bargaining Agreement (maybe note)
We could keep the original list as given, plus the later line as an extra bullet.
Thus:
Benefits

- Paid parental leave
- Discount programs including Friends and family discounts
- Referral Bonus
- Tuition Reimbursement
- Life insurance coverage
- Disability benefits
- Tuition assistance program
- Paid Time Off (PTO)
- As applicable per Collective Bargaining Agreement
But that's repetitive. Maybe better to keep the original bullet list and then add a note: "Additionally, benefits include medical, dental, vision, 401(k) plan, life insurance coverage, disability benefits, tuition assistance program and PTO, as applicable per Collective Bargaining Agreement." That could be a after the list.
Thus:
