We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we have sections: Company Overview, Why Join Us?, Compensation & Benefits, Job Description (What You'll Do), What We're Looking For (Knowledge, Skills, & Abilities, Education, Experience, Credentials & Licensing), Scheduling Requirements, Job Location. We must use

for section headings. Do not repeat job title as heading. Do not put Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. Preserve all substantive info. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Not present. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. All sections have content. We need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep details like "Competitive compensation", "On demand pay with UKG Wallet", "50% childcare tuition discount", "401(k) with employer match", "Comprehensive benefit package for all full-time employees, including: Paid time off that increases with seniority Paid holidays Medical, dental, vision options available Additional life, disability, and retirement plans Educational and professional development Tuition reimbursement Company-paid life insurance Pet insurance Paid CDA". That's a list of benefits; we should format as

    • items. Similarly responsibilities: list of duties. Knowledge, Skills, & Abilities: list. Education: maybe a paragraph. Experience: paragraph. Credentials & Licensing: list. Scheduling Requirements: paragraph. Job Location: maybe a paragraph. We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's craft:

      About the Role

      maybe? The instruction: use

      for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can choose appropriate headings. The posting has sections: Company Overview, Why Join Us?, Compensation & Benefits, Job Description (What You'll Do), What We're Looking For (Knowledge, Skills, & Abilities, Education, Experience, Credentials & Licensing), Scheduling Requirements, Job Location. We could map: About the role (Company Overview + Why Join Us?), Responsibilities (Job Description), Requirements (What We're Looking For), Benefits (Compensation & Benefits), Schedule (Scheduling Requirements), Location maybe as a paragraph not a heading? Could include as

      Location

      . But they said use headings for those examples; location not listed but we can still use

      Location

      if we want. 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 we should follow that style. Probably better to stick to those headings where applicable. For location we could just put a

      without heading. But we need to include all substantive info; location is substantive. Could embed in a

      after schedule. Let's decide sections: - About the role: combine Company Overview and Why Join Us? (maybe two paragraphs). Could be

      About the role

      then

      ... combined. - Responsibilities:

      Responsibilities

      then
      • ... duties. - Requirements:

        Requirements

        then maybe sub-sections? Could use

        ? Not allowed? Only

        for headings. Could just list items under Requirements using
        • . But we have multiple categories: Knowledge, Skills, & Abilities; Education; Experience; Credentials & Licensing. Could still list them as separate
            groups with preceding

            headings? But we cannot use other heading tags. Could use

            Knowledge, Skills, & Abilities:

            then
              . That's okay. - Benefits:

              Benefits

              then
              • ... benefits. - Schedule:

                Schedule

                then

                ... scheduling requirements. - Location: maybe
