We need to output HTML fragment only, no or . Use
for section headings. Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. We need to decide which sections to include: - About the role: combine company overview and maybe "What We Do" and "Our People Matter Most". We'll put prose in
maybe multiple paragraphs. - Responsibilities: list from Essential Responsibilities (maybe also include What You Will Do? but that's essentially responsibilities). We'll combine both? The "What You Will Do" is a paragraph summarizing responsibilities; we could include that as prose before the list. But we must not duplicate content. We'll include the paragraph as prose, then the list. - Requirements: Minimum Qualifications list. - Skills: Desired Skills list. - Benefits: list. We should not include Qualifications heading if we already have Requirements; but we could include Qualifications as same as Requirements? The instruction says use headings e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. It doesn't require all; only include when posting has real content. We have content for Requirements (minimum qualifications) and Skills (desired skills). Qualifications could be considered same as Requirements; but to avoid duplication, we can omit Qualifications heading. Or we could put Minimum Qualifications under Qualifications and Desired Skills under Skills, and omit Requirements. But we need to decide which mapping is more logical. Usually Requirements = minimum qualifications, Qualifications = maybe also minimum? But we have both Minimum and Desired. I'd map Minimum Qualifications to Requirements, Desired Skills to Skills. Omit Qualifications. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Benefits. Now ensure we don't include any boilerplate like EEO etc. Not present. Now produce HTML. We'll need to escape any HTML special characters? Not needed. Structure:
