We need to output HTML fragment only, with sections for headings where content exists. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. So we need to extract substantive info. Let's parse the posting: - Opening: "Senior Living Prep Cook Must be available to work weekends" (maybe a line). Then "Are you passionate about working with seniors? ..." etc. That's intro prose. - Then description of company: "Merrill Gardens at West Chester is currently accepting applications for Prep Cooks to help support residents within our beautiful community residents call home." etc. - Then "If you are a compassionate, caring, responsible, and honest individual who genuinely loves working with the senior population, we would love the opportunity to speak with you! Please APPLY TODAY!" That's application instruction; we should remove application instructions. So remove "Please APPLY TODAY!" and similar. - Then "Family means everything to us..." paragraph about family business. - Then benefits: "We offer our full-time employees: ..." list. - Then "We offer our part-time employees: ..." list. - Then "Our Prep Cook are responsible for:" list of duties. - Then "If you are someone with:" list of qualifications/experience. - Then "The pay range for this position will vary based on qualifications, experience, education/additional licensure, and other objective factors. Hiring at the maximum is not typical in order to allow for future and continued salary growth". This is pay info but vague. According to rules: we should include Pay section only if posting actually states them. It says "The pay range for this position will vary based on qualifications...". That's not a specific number or range; it's vague. The instruction: 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. Since it says "will vary based on qualifications..." that's essentially "varies". So we should NOT create a Pay section. - Physical Requirements: we have a section. Should we create a heading? The allowed headings list includes: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Physical Requirements is not in list. But we could possibly put under Requirements or Qualifications? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says e.g., implying those are examples but not exclusive? It says "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 map content to those headings. Physical Requirements could go under Requirements or Qualifications. Probably under Requirements. - Also "Must be available to work weekends" is a requirement; could be under Requirements. - Also "Consider applying to become a Prep Cook with the Merrill Family of Senior Living Communities!" is application instruction; remove. - "Yes, You Can have a meaningful Career! Our mission is to provide an inspiring environment..." is mission statement; could be About the role? Maybe About the role includes company description. We'll put under About the role. - Also "Merrill Gardens is an Equal Opportunity Employer" is EEO boilerplate; remove. Now we need to decide sections: - About the role: include company description, mission, family business, maybe the intro about passion for seniors. - Responsibilities: list of duties under "Our Prep Cook are responsible for:" (the bullet list). Also maybe "Assists in preparing all food items..." etc. - Requirements/Qualifications/Skills: we have experience requirements, education, computer skills, etc. Also "Must be available to work weekends". Also physical requirements. We need to decide how to split. Could have Requirements (experience, education), Skills (computer skills), Qualifications (maybe same). But we should avoid thin sections. Perhaps combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section called Requirements (or Qualifications). The instruction says we can use those headings; we can choose a few substantive sections. Let's propose sections: - About the role (company overview, mission, family business, weekend availability maybe? Actually weekend availability is a requirement, not about role.) - Responsibilities (duties list) - Requirements (experience, education, computer skills, weekend availability, physical requirements) - Benefits (full-time and part-time benefits). We have specific benefits listed; we should include Benefits section. We must not include Pay or Schedule sections because not specific. Now we need to format:

About the role

for prose. For lists,

. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details from the posting, except boilerplate removed. Let's extract substantive content: Intro: "Are you passionate about working with seniors? Are you dedicated to supporting seniors on their wellness journey to ensure they are provided with an atmosphere that values individualism and dignity? If so, we may have the perfect opportunity for you! Merrill Gardens at West Chester is currently accepting applications for Prep Cooks to help support residents within our beautiful community residents call home. If you are a compassionate, caring, responsible, and honest individual who genuinely loves working with the senior population, we would love the opportunity to speak with you!" (Remove "Please APPLY TODAY!"). Then family business paragraph: "Family means everything to us. From the communities we create to the connections we make with residents, everything we do is rooted in our history as a fifth-generation family business. We build on that family with the people we hire and the teams they form. As a family company, we can do things differently and for the past 30 years our long-term commitment to team members has been unsurpassed." Then mission statement: "Yes, You Can have a meaningful Career! Our mission is to provide an inspiring environment for our residents, families, and team members where every life is defined by the possibilities." We could combine these into About the role. Now Responsibilities list: - Assists in preparing all food items following production amounts, proper recipes, and procedures. - Ensures all food items are prepared in a timely fashion. - Uses batch-cooking and cook to order where appropriate to ensure a fresh product. - Prepares all food products in a manner to ensure the highest level of Food Safety and to preserve nutrients toward meeting the specific dietary requirements of the residents. - Attends all regularly scheduled dining services meetings and in-service trainings. - Maintains kitchen sanitation and safety standards: Cleans and sanitizes all work areas and equipment before and after each use. - Practices proper food handling and food storage procedures as per Merrill Gardens and state Food Safety guidelines always. - Maintains documentation of all temperature charts and records as per company policy and procedure. - Completes assigned cleaning to ensure compliance and sanitary standards are met. Now Requirements/Qualifications/Skills: - Minimum of 5 years’ experience in quality food preparation - Experience in scratch cooking in a high volume, fine dining setting - Proficiency in computer skills including MS Outlook, Word, etc. - 1 – year previous dining experience in food preparation. (Note: seems redundant with 5 years? but keep) - High School diploma required or GED; college degree or equivalent preferred. - Must be available to work weekends. - Physical Requirements: This role requires frequent standing, walking, and manual handling of materials up to 50 lbs. Regular bending, lifting, and reaching are also part of daily responsibilities. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions. Now Benefits: Full-time employees: - Highly competitive pay and comprehensive benefits (medical, dental, vision, flexible spending accounts, life insurance). - Company-paid Employee Assistance Program (EAP) - Paid time off – 7 holidays, and 11 vacation days. - Free daily meal every shift. - 401(k) with company match and immediate vesting! - Tuition reimbursement for career growth. - Company-paid short & long-term disability insurance. - Pet insurance and team member discounts. - Advance Pay benefit – access wages before payday. - A stable, growing company with opportunities for advancement! Part-time employees: - Free daily meal every shift. - 401(k) with company match and immediate vesting! - Company-paid Employee Assistance Program (EAP) - Tuition reimbursement for career growth. - Pet insurance and team member discounts. - Advance Pay benefit – access wages before payday. - A stable, growing company with opportunities for advancement! We should preserve all details. Note there are duplicated items across full-time and part-time; we keep both. Now we need to output HTML fragment only. We'll structure:

About the role

... (combined prose)

Responsibilities

  • ...

Requirements

  • ...
  • ...

Benefits

Maybe we need subheadings for full-time and part-time? Not allowed headings beyond those; but we can include prose describing both. Could do

Full-time employees:

then
    ... then

    Part-time employees:

    then
      ... That's acceptable as we are not adding new h3 headings. We must not repeat job title. Ensure no markdown. Now craft the About the role paragraph: Combine: "Are you passionate about working with seniors? Are you dedicated to supporting seniors on their wellness journey to ensure they are provided with an atmosphere that values individualism and dignity? If so, we may have the perfect opportunity for you! Merrill Gardens at West Chester is currently accepting applications for Prep Cooks to help support residents within our beautiful community residents call home. If you are a compassionate, caring, responsible, and honest individual who genuinely loves working with the senior population, we would love the opportunity to speak with you! Family means everything to us. From the communities we create to the connections we make with residents, everything we do is rooted in our history as a fifth-generation family business. We build on that family with the people we hire and the teams they form. As a family company, we can do things differently and for the past 30 years our long-term commitment to team members has been unsurpassed. Yes, You Can have a meaningful Career! Our mission is to provide an inspiring environment for our residents, families, and team members where every life is defined by the possibilities." We removed "Please APPLY TODAY!" and the later "Consider applying..." and EEO. Now Responsibilities list as above. Now Requirements list: include each bullet. We need to be careful to not duplicate "1 – year previous dining experience in food preparation." It's maybe redundant but we keep. Also include "Must be available to work weekends." as a bullet. Physical requirements bullet: combine into one bullet maybe: "Physical requirements: frequent standing, walking, and manual handling of materials up to 50 lbs; regular bending, lifting, and reaching; reasonable accommodations may be made for individuals with disabilities." Now Benefits: we need to list full-time and part-time. We'll do:

      Full-time employees:

      • Highly competitive pay and comprehensive benefits (medical, dental, vision, flexible spending accounts, life insurance)
      • Company-paid Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
      • Paid time off – 7 holidays, and 11 vacation days
      • Free daily meal every shift
      • 401(k) with company match and immediate vesting
      • Tuition reimbursement for career growth
      • Company-paid short & long-term disability insurance
