We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings that have real content. Use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections where posting has real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info. Remove boilerplate: relocation assistance, clearance, travel? Travel is mentioned: "TRAVEL: Yes, 10% of the Time". That is a detail; we could include under maybe Responsibilities or a separate section? There's no specific heading for Travel; we could embed in Responsibilities or a paragraph. The instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. So we need to decide which sections have content. We have description: "Description At Northrop Grumman..." That's about the role. So we can have

About the role

with paragraphs. Responsibilities: The bullet list of duties (starting with "In This Job, You’ll Support...") is a list of responsibilities. So we can have

Responsibilities

with
  • items. Requirements: There's "Basic Qualifications" and "Preferred Qualifications". Those could go under Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction says we can use Requirements, Qualifications, Skills sections. We need to decide which to use. Probably combine basic and preferred under Requirements or Qualifications. Since they ask for both Requirements and Qualifications as possible headings, we need to include sections only if there is real content. We have both basic and preferred qualifications. Could put basic under Requirements, preferred under Qualifications. Or combine. Let's follow: Requirements = Basic Qualifications. Qualifications = Preferred Qualifications. Skills: maybe we can extract skills from the "You’ll Be a Great Fit If" section (skills/attributes). That could go under Skills. Benefits: The posting mentions benefits: "Northrop Grumman provides a variety of benefits including health insurance coverage, life and disability insurance, savings plan, Company paid holidays and paid time off (PTO) for vacation and/or personal business." Also mentions overtime, shift differential, discretionary bonus, annual bonuses, long term incentives for VP/Director. That's benefits/compensation. Pay: Salary range given: Primary Level Salary Range: $94,200.00 - $141,200.00. So we have Pay section. Schedule: Not mentioned besides travel 10% of time. No explicit schedule (full-time, etc). So we should not create Schedule section because no specific content. We must not include placeholder like "commensurate with experience". The salary range is specific, so we can include Pay. We must not include boilerplate: EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, application instructions, etc. Remove those. We must preserve all substantive information: include details about location (McLean, VA), reporting line, travel 10%, etc. We need to ensure we don't lose any substantive info from the description. Let's extract sections: About the role: The paragraph starting "Description At Northrop Grumman, our employees have incredible opportunities..." up to "This position reports to the Employee Communications Manager for Northrop Grumman’s Defense Systems sector, and is located in McLean, VA." That's about the role. Responsibilities: The list after "In This Job, You’ll Support and help lead efforts..." each sentence seems a responsibility. We'll convert each to
  • . Requirements (Basic Qualifications): The paragraph starting "Basic Qualifications Bachelor's degree from accredited university with five (5) + years of experience successfully developing and deploying communications practices or three (3) + years of communications experience with Master-level degree from accredited university. An additional four years of experience can be considered in lieu of degree.Proficient in Microsoft Office suite (Word, SharePoint, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Teams).Possess a high level of integrity when handling sensitive and confidential informationExcellent written and verbal communication skills, strong judgement, problem solving and organizational skills, and superb attention to detail." We need to split into sensible items maybe as
    • . Could keep as paragraph but instruction: Use
      • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we should list each requirement as
      • . We'll break sentences. Preferred Qualifications (Qualifications): The paragraph starting "Preferred Qualifications Experience with successful email campaigns and newsletter creation.Ability to multi-task and prioritize competing demands in a fast-paced environment.Affinity for developing solutions to a variety of problems of moderate scope and complexity.Strong business presence with a history of cultivating trusting relationships with multiple teams and leaders.Ability to work under pressure and meet tight deadlines with accuracy and composure.Possess a high level of interpersonal skills and a “can-do” attitude.Experience leveraging data to create and execute communications strategies, plans, programs and events.Understanding of Associated Press writing style.Aerospace and Defense experience." We'll list each as
      • . Skills: The "You’ll Be a Great Fit If You Are ..." paragraph includes many attributes. We'll extract each as
      • under Skills. Benefits: The paragraph about benefits: "Northrop Grumman provides a variety of benefits including health insurance coverage, life and disability insurance, savings plan, Company paid holidays and paid time off (PTO) for vacation and/or personal business." Also mention overtime, shift differential, discretionary bonus, annual bonuses, long term incentives for VP/Director. We'll list each as
      • . Pay: Salary range: "Primary Level Salary Range: $94,200.00 - $141,200.00". Also note that it's a guideline, factors, overtime etc. We'll include that as

        maybe. We should not include schedule. We must not repeat job title. Not include relocation assistance etc. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /. Use

        headings,

        ,

          after location: "Travel required: approximately 10% of time." Now Responsibilities: list each bullet.
