We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We have description about role (first paragraph). That's "About the role". Responsibilities: there is a "Responsibilities" heading with bullet list. Requirements: there is "Minimum Job Requirements Qualifications". Qualifications: there is "Minimum Job Requirements Qualifications" includes qualifications. Skills: there is "Competencies" and "Other Requirements". Benefits: not mentioned. Pay: there is "Additional Information The base salary range for this full-time position is $175,000 - $220,000." So Pay section. Schedule: not mentioned (no schedule). Travel info is in Other Requirements (travel up to 75%). That's not schedule but maybe we could treat as Schedule? The instruction: include Schedule only if posting actually states them. There's no explicit schedule like "full-time", but we have "full-time position". Could consider schedule as full-time. But they said "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." The posting states "full-time position". That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule with "Full-time". However they also said prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. Might combine schedule into About? But schedule is separate. I'd include Schedule with "Full-time". Benefits: not mentioned, so omit.
We need to use for section headings. Use
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Do not put Job ID etc.
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not include boilerplate like EEO, disclaimer, etc. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions.
Thus we need to extract substantive content: About the role (first paragraph up to "Responsibilities").
Responsibilities: list after "Responsibilities" heading. Need to capture bullet points. The text after "Responsibilities" includes a paragraph: "The following outlines the main duties of the role. This summary is not meant to be an exhaustive, but provides a high-level overview of the key activities of the role." Then list items each starting with a verb. We'll turn each into
- .
Requirements: The "Minimum Job Requirements Qualifications" section includes qualifications and competencies. We need to separate Requirements and Qualifications? The instruction says use headings for Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. So we need to split content accordingly.
We have "Minimum Job Requirements Qualifications Doctoral level degree...". That's qualifications. Then "Competencies" list. Then "Other Requirements" includes travel, driver license, etc. Also "Ability and willingness to travel up to 75% of time..." etc. Also "Must live within the boundaries..." etc. Also "Driving in a safe manner..." etc. Also "Valid driver’s license..." etc. Also "Must have valid licenses and credentialing required to conduct" (cut off). We'll include that as part of Other Requirements maybe under Skills? But we have Skills heading; we could put competencies under Skills, and other requirements under Requirements? Actually "Other Requirements" could go under Requirements. But we already have Requirements heading for things like experience, education. We could put "Minimum Job Requirements" under Requirements, and "Competencies" under Skills, and "Other Requirements" maybe also under Requirements or Skills? The instruction: Use headings for Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. So we need to map content:
- Requirements: likely includes experience, travel, driver license, etc. Also "Previous MSL experience ... required". Also "5+ years MSL experience may be considered for a Senior MSL opportunity." Also "Experience in the outpatient medical community as well both pre- and post-launch product approval activities is preferred." Also "Demonstrates clinical, scientific, and technical knowledge within infectious diseases or respiratory diseases preferred but not required." Also "Understanding of the pharmaceutical industry and business strategies." Also "Knowledgeable with current regulatory guidelines..." Also "Behaves in an ethical and professional manner..." Also "Ability and willingness to travel up to 75% of time..." etc. Also "Must live within the boundaries..." etc. Also "Driving in a safe manner..." etc. Also "Valid driver’s license..." etc. Also "Must have valid licenses and credentialing required to conduct" (incomplete). We'll include as is.
- Qualifications: Doctoral level degree in life sciences program with strong scientific knowledge highly preferred. Post grad in virology, infectious disease, epidemiology or related fields considered. (That's it.)
- Skills: Competencies list: Adept at building and maintaining relationships..., Works collaboratively..., Communicates effectively..., Ability to manage multiple projects..., Thinks strategically..., Demonstrated computer skills in MS Word, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint, MS TEAMS, and video conferencing., Demonstrated ability to be flexible and adapt..., etc.
We also have "Other duties as assigned." under Responsibilities maybe.
We need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like EEO, disclaimer, etc.
Now format.
We'll output:
