We must not include Job ID etc. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Also remove duplicated lines. The posting includes "Who We Are" at top; we can include that as maybe a brief intro? The instruction: "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." The "Who We Are" is not a heading per the list of allowed headings (About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Should we include it? The instruction says "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text". The "Who We Are" is not one of the allowed headings; but we could treat it as a
maybe. However they said use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but they say "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." Likely they expect only those headings. So we should not output a heading for "Who We Are". Instead we could incorporate that info into a
before the sections, maybe as an introductory paragraph. That's allowed.
We must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include the "Who We Are" paragraph content somewhere. Could be a
before the first heading.

- Responsibilities: "What You'll Do" list items. Use

- Requirements/Qualifications/Skills: "Who You Are" list items. Could be split into Requirements, Qualifications, Skills but we can combine into one section maybe "Requirements". But they said prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have one section "Requirements" that includes all the bullet points from "Who You Are". Or we could split into Qualifications and Skills but that would be thin. Better to have one "Requirements" section.
- Benefits: list items.
- Pay: Salary Band paragraph.
- Schedule: hybrid work model paragraph.
