New York - Associate Director of Lateral Partner Recruiting

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About Us? Actually we need to reformat job posting into clean semantic HTML. Use

for section headings (e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. Preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it — never emit heading followed by filler/placeholder text. Prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. We need to parse the posting. Content: - About Us: description of firm. - Position Summary: description of role. - Position Responsibilities: bullet list (multiple subpoints). Should be under a heading like "Responsibilities". Use

• . - Experience, Skills, And Qualifications: includes required education, years experience, etc. Could be under "Qualifications" or "Requirements". The instruction says we can use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide which sections to include based on content. We have "Experience, Skills, And Qualifications" with bullet points (though not bullet list but paragraphs). We can treat as Qualifications. We have "Benefits" section: description of benefits, plus salary info for Illinois and New York applicants. We have "SALARY" sections for Illinois and New York. That is Pay info. So we need a Pay section. We have no explicit Schedule section, but there is mention: "Must live within a commutable distance to a firm office with the ability to come into the office 3-4 days per week." That's schedule info (hybrid). Also "Flexibility Must be available for work outside of normal schedule hours. Availability to travel, as needed." That's schedule/travel. So we could include a Schedule section with that info. We also have "About Us" which could be "About the role"? Actually "About Us" is about the firm. The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. It didn't list About Us, but we could use "About the role" for position summary? However we have Position Summary separate. Could combine About Us and Position Summary into "About the role"? The instruction says do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. It didn't forbid About Us heading. But they gave examples of headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should stick to those headings. So we need to map content to those headings. - About the role: could include Position Summary and maybe About Us? Probably Position Summary is appropriate for About the role. The About Us description of firm could be considered part of About the role? Might be okay to include under About the role. But we need to avoid filler. We'll include About the role with Position Summary (maybe also brief firm description). However we must preserve all substantive info; we cannot drop About Us description. So we need to include it somewhere. Could put under About the role. - Responsibilities: from Position Responsibilities. - Requirements/Qualifications/Skills: we have Experience, Skills, And Qualifications. Could split into Requirements (education, years experience) and Skills (core competencies). But we prefer few substantive sections. Could combine into Qualifications section that includes education, experience, skills, competencies. But we have separate headings allowed: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We could use Qualifications for education and experience, Skills for core competencies. But we need to avoid thin sections. However we have enough content for each. Let's decide: - About the role: Position Summary + About Us description. - Responsibilities: list of duties. - Qualifications: Bachelor’s degree required, 7+ years legal recruiting experience including at least 3 years partner recruiting, partner integration experience a plus, 3+ years supervisory/team-leadership role, ability/willingness to travel, must live within commutable distance to office 3-4 days per week. - Skills: core competencies list (Adaptability, Collaboration, Communication, Excellence, Reliability, Problem Solving, Professionalism, Flexibility, Knowledge Base, etc.) plus ability to use Generative AI tools. - Benefits: description of benefits. - Pay: salary ranges for Illinois and New York. - Schedule: maybe not needed because we already included office attendance in Qualifications? But we could still have Schedule section for "Must be able to come into office 3-4 days per week; flexibility to work outside normal hours; travel as needed." However that overlaps with Qualifications. To avoid duplication, we could put schedule info in Qualifications (since it's a requirement). But the instruction says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. If we put schedule info in Qualifications, we might not need a separate Schedule section. However we have a Pay section definitely needed. Benefits section needed. So we could have About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay. That's six sections. Check if any content left: The "Experience, Skills, And Qualifications" also includes "Ability to identify and evaluate appropriate Generative AI tools to enhance productivity." That's a skill. Also "Ability to maintain composure and demonstrate good judgment." etc. Thus we can capture all. Now we need to remove boilerplate: The EEO statement at end: "We are an equal opportunity employer and welcome applicants from all backgrounds and experiences." That's boilerplate; remove. Also "Additional information about benefits and rewards can be found here ." That's a link placeholder; we can keep the sentence about benefits but maybe drop the link? The instruction: remove duplicated lines, cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The "Additional information about benefits and rewards can be found here ." is not exactly boilerplate but it's a reference to a link; we could keep it as part of Benefits description? It's not substantive; it's a pointer. Might be considered filler. Safer to drop it. Also "SALARY Illinois applicants only:" etc. That's Pay. Now format. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We'll produce something like:
