We need to output HTML fragment with sections only when content exists. Use

for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to map content. Job Summary: we can put under About the role? The instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should include sections that have content. We have job summary paragraph: "We are seeking a highly skilled Windows Server Engineer...". That's about the role. Primary Responsibilities: list bullet points. Required Qualifications: list bullet points. Preferred Qualifications: maybe under Qualifications? Could combine? But we have separate sections: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. The posting includes Required Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications, Technical Skills. We need to map. We can treat "Requirements" as Required Qualifications. "Qualifications" as Preferred Qualifications? Or maybe "Skills" as Technical Skills. Let's decide: - About the role: job summary paragraph. - Responsibilities: Primary Responsibilities list. - Requirements: Required Qualifications list. - Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications list. - Skills: Technical Skills list. - Benefits: list of benefits (medical/dental/vision, 401k, tuition reimbursement, PTO, holidays, parental leave, caregiver leave, additional sick leave, adoption reimbursement, disability benefits, life insurance, supplemental benefit programs, EAP, wellness programs, employee discounts). Also mention "Amazing Perks And Benefits". We'll list them. - Pay: Salary Range $128,400.00 - $215,800.00 USD Annual. - Schedule: Weekly Hours 40, Time Type Regular, office presence minimum 5 days per week, location(s) posted. Also location list: Alpharetta, Georgia, Bothell, Washington, Dallas, Texas, Plano, Texas, USA:GA:Atlanta / 1057 Lenox Park Blvd Ne - Adm:1057 Lenox Park Blvd Ne. Also mention "This position requires office presence of a minimum of 5 days per week and is only located in the location(s) posted. No relocation is offered." Also "AT&T will not hire any applicants for this position who require employer sponsorship now or in the future." That's maybe not schedule but could be included? It's not schedule but maybe we can include in schedule? Better to keep schedule section with hours, time type, office presence, location. The sponsorship note maybe could be omitted? It's not boilerplate? It's a requirement but not schedule. Could be placed under Requirements? But it's about sponsorship. Might be considered a requirement. However instruction: do not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. Sponsorship is not minor? It's a condition. Could be placed under Requirements as a note. But we can also include in a short

under Requirements. However we already have Required Qualifications list; we could add a paragraph after list. But we must not invent or summarize away detail. Must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include that sponsorship condition somewhere. Could be under Requirements as a note. Also "Our Principal Systems Administration jobs earn between $128,400.00 - $215,800.00 USD Annual." That's pay. Also "Individual starting salary within this range may depend on geography, experience, expertise, and education/training." That's also pay detail. Also "Joining Our Team Comes With Amazing Perks And Benefits" then list. Also "Weekly Hours 40 Time Type Regular" schedule. Also location list. Also "No relocation is offered." schedule/location note. We'll produce sections:
