We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, no invention, no summarizing away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove duplicated lines like "Performs other duties as assigned by store, regional, or national leadership." appears twice; we should keep only one instance. We need to parse the posting. Let's extract sections: - About the role: maybe the introductory paragraph before "Job Responsibilities". The text: "Orders, replenishes, and merchandises Specialty products and participates in regional programs for purchasing and promotions. Performs all functions related to breaking down deliveries and merchandising new products and stocking shelves. Assists Team Leader in organizing and developing promotional displays and maintaining OTS standards.

All positions must strive to support WFM core values and goals, promote national, regional, and store programs and initiatives, and ensure adherence to all applicable health and safety regulations including Food Safety and regulatory duties required in the department." That's about the role. We'll put that in

. - Responsibilities: The list after "Job Responsibilities". It includes many bullet-like sentences. We need to convert to

  • . Must preserve all details. Let's extract each sentence as a list item. Job Responsibilities list: "Purchases and replenishes Specialty items through proper buying procedures.

Performs opening, mid, and closing duties as assigned; ensures accuracy of signs and pricing. Immediately reports safety hazards and violations. Performs other duties as assigned by store, regional, or national leadership." We should remove duplicate line "Performs other duties as assigned by store, regional, or national leadership." appears twice; keep one. - Skills: after "Job Skills". List of bullet-like sentences. "Extensive specialty knowledge, including production, distribution, seasonal availability, advances and trends. Familiarity and/or willingness to learn about products, nutritional information and other areas of study. Working knowledge and application of all specialty merchandising expectations.

Strong work ethic and ability to work in a fast-paced environment with a sense of urgency. Understanding of and compliance with WFM quality goals" We'll put these as
    • . - Experience: after "Experience". It says "12+ months retail experience". That's a requirement. Could be under Requirements or Qualifications. The spec says we can have sections: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide where to put experience. Likely under Requirements. Also "Physical Requirements / Working Conditions" is a separate block; could be under Requirements as well, or maybe a separate section but we only have allowed headings; we could put under Requirements as well. - Requirements: includes experience, physical requirements, maybe also TIPS requirement, age requirement, etc. Also note about promotion etc. But we should keep substantive info. The block after Experience includes many paragraphs about promotion policy etc. That's likely boilerplate? It's about promotion policy, maybe not required to include? It's substantive but maybe considered boilerplate? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The promotion policy is not exactly legal boilerplate but could be considered generic HR policy. However it's part of the posting; we should preserve ALL substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep it unless it's considered boilerplate. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. The promotion policy is not EEO; it's about promotion. Might be considered generic but still substantive. I'd keep it under Requirements or maybe a separate section "Additional Information". But we only have allowed headings; we could put under Requirements. - Benefits: after "Whole Foods Market offers "Whole Benefits"." We have description of benefits. So we need Benefits section. - Pay: The wage range: "$19.00-$30.20 Hourly, commensurate with experience." The instruction says never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state wage range, so we can include Pay section. However the phrase "commensurate with experience" is considered filler? The instruction says 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. It says we should not create a Pay section if the content is just filler like "commensurate with experience". But we have actual numbers: $19.00-$30.20 Hourly. That's substantive. So we can include Pay section with that sentence. However we might need to avoid the filler phrase "commensurate with experience". We could keep the full sentence but maybe we should strip the filler? The instruction: "never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD")". That means if the only content under that heading is filler, we shouldn't create the heading. But we have real numbers plus filler; we could keep the sentence but maybe it's okay. To be safe, we could include the wage range and omit the filler phrase. But we must preserve ALL substantive information; removing "commensurate with experience" might be considered summarizing away detail? It's not substantive; it's filler. So we can drop it. Keep "$19.00-$30.20 Hourly". That's substantive. - Schedule: The posting mentions ability to work flexible schedule including nights, weekends, holidays as needed. That's under Physical Requirements / Working Conditions. So we could include Schedule section with that info. However the instruction says never create Schedule section unless posting actually states them. It does mention schedule flexibility. So we can include Schedule. But we also have Physical Requirements / Working Conditions which includes lifting, standing, etc. That could be part of Requirements or maybe a separate section but we don't have a heading for Physical Requirements. We could include under Requirements. We need to avoid duplication. Let's structure:

      About the role

      ... (intro paragraph)

      Responsibilities

      • ... each item

      Requirements

      We need to include experience, physical requirements, TIPS, age, maybe promotion policy? Let's decide. Experience: "12+ months retail experience" Physical Requirements / Working Conditions: list of items. TIPS requirement: "Where applicable, TIPS (Training for Intervention Procedures by Servers of Alcohol) course completion required and must be age 18 years of age or older to serve alcohol." Promotion policy paragraphs: maybe we can include as part of Requirements but they are more about career progression. Could be considered substantive. I'll include them as paragraphs under Requirements. We must not include duplicated lines. Ensure we only list each responsibility once. Now Benefits: after "Whole Foods Market offers "Whole Benefits"." We have description: "Whole Benefits offers a wide range of benefits for Full and Part-Time Team Members, including eligibility for a store discount, paid time off, financial wellness, health & wellness support programs, and access to other Team Member perks. Eligibility for Whole Benefits is determined under the terms of the applicable Whole Benefits plan at a person’s date of hire and may vary based on work location, length of service, and job type (such as regular or seasonal). Click here for benefit details." We should keep that but remove the "Click here for benefit details." as it's an application instruction/link? It's basically a link; maybe considered application instruction. We'll drop that sentence. Pay:

      Pay

      $19.00-$30.20 Hourly

      Schedule:

      Schedule

      Ability to work a flexible schedule including nights, weekends, and holidays as needed.

      We should also maybe include that they must work all scheduled shifts etc. That's already in Responsibilities. So schedule section just about flexibility. Now we need to ensure we didn't miss any substantive info: The line "All Whole Foods Market Retail jobs require ensuring a positive company image by providing courteous, friendly, and efficient service to customers and Team Members at all times." is in About the role; we kept. "All positions must be performed in accordance with team and store Standard Operating Procedures." also in About. "Further, Team Members must be prepared and able to perform the duties inherent in other Team Member job descriptions." also in About. "All positions must strive to support WFM core values and goals, promote national, regional, and store programs and initiatives, and ensure adherence to all applicable health and safety regulations including Food Safety and regulatory duties required in the department." also in About. Now Responsibilities list we captured. Now Skills list we captured. Now Experience: "12+ months retail experience" we will put under Requirements. Physical Requirements: list: - Must be able to lift 50 pounds. - In an 8-hour work day: standing/walking 6-8 hours. - Hand use: single grasping, fine manipulation, pushing and pulling. - Work requires the following motions: bending, twisting, squatting and reaching. - Exposure to FDA approved cleaning chemicals. - Exposure to temperatures: 90 degrees Fahrenheit. - Ability to work in a wet and cold environment. - Ability to work a flexible schedule including nights
