for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive info; not invent or summarize away detail. Avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Salary range is given, so include Pay section. Benefits: they list medical, dental, vision, paid time off, ESOP, 401(k), life insurance, flexible work schedules, holidays. Include Benefits section.
Schedule: not mentioned explicitly; they mention flexible work schedules but that's a benefit. No explicit schedule like full-time/part-time. So we should not create Schedule section unless posting actually states them. It mentions flexible work schedules as benefit, but not a schedule heading. So we omit Schedule.
We need to decide sections: About the role (maybe Position Overview), Responsibilities (What You'll Be Doing), Requirements (What Required Skills You'll Bring), Skills (Skills/Competencies), Pay (Salary Range), Benefits.
We could combine Requirements and Skills into one? But better separate as they have distinct content.
We must not create headings with filler. Ensure each heading has substantive content.
Let's extract content:
About the role / Position Overview: paragraphs describing Parsons, role overview: "Parsons is looking for a major projects Program Director to complete the Preliminary Engineering and Environmental phase of a major project in the New York Metropolitan area, and to develop final design documents, or alternatively, design-build bridging documents. The successful candidate will work externally directly with the upper levels of NYCDOT and other Agencies as well as City and State government. Internally, the successful candidate will provide direction and management to a large team of Parsons and Parsons’ partner firms and subconsultants to ensure on-schedule completion within or below budget in accordance with contractual obligations. Provides direction and management for large-sized and mega-projects and ensures on-schedule completion within or below budget in accordance with contractual obligations.

That's a lot; we can keep as prose in

Responsibilities: "What You'll Be Doing" bullet list? It's a paragraph with many sentences separated by periods. We could turn each sentence into
