Procurement Category Manager
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should only include sections that have real specific content. Pay and Schedule not present, so omit. Benefits present: list of benefits. Provide About the role? Could be a short intro about the role. The posting includes description of position and responsibilities. We could have "About the role" as a paragraph summarizing the role. Then "Responsibilities" list. Then "Requirements" maybe combine qualifications and skills. The posting includes "The ideal candidate should possess the following:" list. That's qualifications/requirements/skills. We can split into Requirements (education, experience) and Skills (specific abilities). But we can also combine. The instruction: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits. Use for each. Use - for lists. Use
for prose.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate like EEO, application instructions, data privacy, etc.
We need to preserve all substantive information: company description, role location, responsibilities list, qualifications list, benefits list.
Let's extract:
