We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate (cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions). Also must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Pay section: we have compensation details, so include Pay. Schedule: not given (maybe work location on-campus, but schedule not specified). Benefits: not explicitly listed; maybe not include Benefits unless present. The posting mentions "Work Location" and "This is an on-campus position". Could be considered Schedule? Not schedule. Could be "Work Location" but not a required heading; we could include under a generic section like "About the role" or "Responsibilities". But we must follow headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can include only those with content. We have content: Position Overview (could be About the role). Responsibilities: list of duties (teach, advise, collaborate, etc). Requirements/Qualifications: qualifications and skills. Skills: maybe separate but we can combine. Pay: compensation range. Work Location: maybe under About the role or Responsibilities? Not schedule. Could include under "About the role". Benefits: none explicit. Schedule: none. Thus we output sections: About the role (h3), Responsibilities (h3), Requirements (h3) maybe Qualifications (h3) and Skills (h3) but we can combine Qualifications and Skills into one? The instruction: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications (including skills), Pay. That's four sections. We must not repeat job title. Use

for each section heading. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract. About the role: Position Overview paragraph: "The ideal candidate should be highly experienced and skilled in curricular development, course development, BOC exam preparation and testing, clinical instruction, and didactic instruction in athletic training. Experience in simulation development, implementation, and evidence-based practice would be a plus. Candidates will be expected to teach undergraduate and graduate athletic training courses, engage with pre-professional students, advise and provide support with recruitment and retention. Collaboration with the Athletic Training Faculty in programmatic assessment, policy development, interprofessional education initiatives, and the maintenance of professional program accreditation through CAATE is expected. Teaching responsibilities may include courses on clinical examination and diagnosis of the upper and lower extremities, spine, and other related areas, based on programmatic needs and the candidate’s expertise. Depending on departmental and programmatic needs, administrative leadership opportunities may be available. Faculty are also expected to contribute to departmental, college and professional service, which may include curriculum development, accreditation support and related responsibilities." Also mention "Applications for a non-tenure track 9-12 month faculty position, to begin July 1, 2027." That's about role. Also "We invite applicants to become part of the CAATE-accredited 5-year accelerated Master of Science in Athletic Training program." That's about role. Also "PCN 2 Merrimack College is seeking an outstanding and highly motivated Open Rank Clinical Professor of Athletic Training, to join the Department of Athletic Training and Exercise Science within the Division of Health Sciences." That's role. We'll combine. Responsibilities: list of duties: teach undergraduate and graduate athletic training courses; engage with pre-professional students; advise and provide support with recruitment and retention; collaborate with Athletic Training Faculty in programmatic assessment, policy development, interprofessional education initiatives, maintenance of CAATE accreditation; teach courses on clinical examination and diagnosis; contribute to departmental, college and professional service (curriculum development, accreditation support); possibly administrative leadership opportunities. We can make bullet list. Qualifications: include minimum qualifications: Master's or doctorate degree (preferred) in Athletic Training, Exercise Science, or closely related field; Current BOC certification and Massachusetts state license (eligible); Minimum five years experience as Athletic Trainer with evidence of current clinical skills, knowledge, competence in clinical instruction; Experience teaching, advising, mentoring undergraduate and graduate students in a CAATE-accredited program; Demonstrate strong clinical knowledge, effective teaching and mentoring skills, commitment to supporting student learning and professional development; Demonstrate commitment to fostering supportive student-centered educational and clinical environment; Experience designing and delivering effective didactic, laboratory, hybrid, and online learning experiences in higher education; Demonstrate collaborative, student-centered approach to teaching, mentoring, professional engagement; Ability to collaborate with stakeholders to determine roles and responsibilities for fulfilling, monitoring, rehearsing NCAA health and safety-related requirements; Commitment to inclusive teaching practices and understanding of healthcare disparities impacting historically underserved communities; Outstanding record of professional service commensurate with career stage (but that phrase is filler? It says "Outstanding record of professional service commensurate with career stage." That's somewhat filler but still substantive? It's a bit generic but maybe we keep. However instruction: do not emit heading followed by filler/placeholder text like "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD". The phrase "commensurate with career stage" is similar to filler but maybe it's okay as it's not a placeholder like "commensurate with experience". It's still somewhat generic but we can keep. Also "Experience with athletic training program administration, accreditation processes, curriculum development, and/or assessment in higher education settings preferred." "Willingness to contribute to program development, curriculum enhancement, and innovative teaching practices." Skills: maybe we can combine with Qualifications. Pay: compensation range: Assistant Clinical Professor $78,000-$90,000; Associate Clinical Professor $90,000-$105,000; Full Clinical Professor $105,000-$120,000. Also note paid over 12 months. We should not include boilerplate like EEO, mission statement, About Merrimack College (though that is substantive but maybe not required? It's about the college, could be considered About the role? Might be considered extra but we can include under About the role? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep the About Merrimack College paragraph. However that is not about the role but about the institution. Could be placed under About the role or maybe a separate section like "About the institution". But headings list does not have that. We could include it under About the role as additional prose. We must remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So remove the EEO statement at end, also remove "Application Materials Should Include ..." (that's application instructions). Also remove "Statement on Our Mission" maybe? That's mission statement but could be considered substantive? It's about mission; but it's somewhat boilerplate? The instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Mission statement is not explicitly listed to remove, but could be considered boilerplate? It's about mission; but we might keep as part of About the role? However the instruction says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Including mission may be thin. But it's substantive about college values. Might be okay to keep under About the role. We also need to remove duplicated lines. There's some duplication maybe. Let's craft HTML. Structure:
