We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities (What You'll Do), Requirements (What is Required), Benefits (What we offer), Pay (if present), Schedule (if present). Also maybe Qualifications? The posting includes "About You" with "What is Required" and "Personal Qualifications And Skills". We'll combine into Requirements and maybe Skills.
We must not repeat job title. No headings for Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, application instructions, cookie/navigation/legal. Also remove duplicated lines.
We need to preserve all substantive info.
We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content.
We have:
- About Us (but that's not a section heading we need? The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should include sections: About the role (maybe from "About The Role"), Responsibilities (What You'll Do), Requirements (What is Required), Benefits (What we offer), Pay (the compensation range for certain states), Schedule (hybrid schedule mention). Also maybe Skills? Could include Personal Qualifications And Skills as Skills section.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Pay section: we have specific pay range for certain states: $155,000 - $200,000. That's substantive. So include Pay.
Schedule: "presenting a dynamic hybrid schedule where employees will typically spend three (3) days per week working from either a DNV office or client location/site." That's specific. So include Schedule.
Benefits: list of benefits given. Include Benefits.
About the role: we have paragraph describing role. Use that.
Responsibilities: "What You'll Do" bullet list (though it's prose with sentences). We'll convert to

Responsibilities: "What You'll Do" bullet list (though it's prose with sentences). We'll convert to - items. Need to capture each duty. The text is long; we can break into logical items. Must preserve all substantive info; we can split sentences into list items.
Requirements: "What is Required" includes bullet-like sentences. We'll list each requirement.
Skills: "Personal Qualifications And Skills" includes leadership skills etc. We'll list.
We must not include boilerplate like "EEO", "equal-opportunity", "Immigration-related employment benefits..." etc. Also remove "For California, Washington, New York, Washington, D.C., Illinois, and Maryland: ..."? That's part of Pay section, we keep that as part of Pay. The sentence after that about DNV being equal-opportunity etc should be removed.
Also remove "About Us" maybe not needed as a section; but we could keep as a brief intro? The instruction says use headings for those specific sections; we can omit About Us as it's not listed. Probably we should not include About Us heading because not in list. However we could include as a
before sections? The instruction: Output ONLY the HTML fragment. It didn't forbid extra paragraphs not under headings. But better to stick to requested sections. We'll omit About Us.
We need to ensure we don't repeat job title.
