We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes Position Overview, Essential Functions, Minimum Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications, Salary, Work Hours (Schedule), maybe Benefits? There's a "Why Work for Illinois?" section describing benefits but not specific benefits. The instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it — 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.
We have Salary: "Anticipated Salary (Eff 7/1/26) $5,328-$7,480/month ($63,936-$89,760/year)". That's specific, so we can include Pay section.
Schedule: "Work Hours: Mon-Fri, 8:30am-5pm, 1 hour unpaid lunch." That's specific, so include Schedule.
Benefits: The "Why Work for Illinois?" mentions benefits but not specific; it's generic. The instruction says do not create Benefits unless posting actually states them. It mentions "top-tier benefits and great retirement packages". That's vague but still mentions benefits. However it's not specific like health insurance, dental, etc. Might be considered filler? The instruction says never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It does state benefits in a generic way. Might be okay to include Benefits section with that content? But they said "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." The "Why Work for Illinois?" is more about benefits and culture. Could be considered Benefits section. However they also said remove boilerplate like EEO etc. This is not boilerplate but promotional. Might be okay.
We need headings: Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We need to map content.
We have Position Overview -> could be About the role.
Essential Functions -> Responsibilities.
Minimum Qualifications -> Requirements or Qualifications.
Preferred Qualifications -> maybe Skills or Qualifications.
We also have Skill Option: Orientation and Mobility Instructor (maybe Skills). But we can incorporate.
We must not repeat job title as heading.
We must not include Job ID etc.
We need to preserve all substantive information.

The "Why Work for Illinois?" is not boilerplate but promotional; we might keep as Benefits section? But it's more about why work for Illinois, not specific benefits. Could treat as About the agency?

It's not specific benefits but still mentions benefits. Might be acceptable.
Alternatively we could omit Benefits section because it's not specific. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state benefits in a generic way: "Our top-tier benefits and great retirement packages". That's a statement about benefits. So we can include Benefits section with that paragraph.

Skills
maybe for Skill Option? But we could incorporate Skill Option into About the role or Responsibilities. The Skill Option is "Orientation and Mobility Instructor". That's basically the role. Could be omitted.
Better to follow typical structure: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (minimum), Preferred Qualifications (maybe under Qualifications), Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to avoid thin sections. We'll combine Preferred Qualifications into Requirements? But they are separate. Could have Requirements (minimum) and Qualifications (preferred). That's two sections.
We'll also include Pay and Schedule.
We must not include headings with empty content.
Let's craft HTML.
We'll need to escape any special characters like apostrophes fine.
