Ralph Lauren Technical Designer, Polo Men's Performance Knits
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to map content to these headings. The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should use those exact headings when appropriate. We have content: Position Overview -> could be "About the role". Essential Duties & Responsibilities -> "Responsibilities". Experience, Skills & Knowledge -> could be split into "Qualifications" and "Skills". But we need to avoid thin sections. We could combine qualifications and skills into one "Qualifications" section, or separate if content distinct. The posting includes degree, understanding, communication, organizational, attention to detail, problem solving, collaborative, proficiency in Adobe Illustrator, knowledge of Browzwear, working knowledge of Gerber, PLM, MS Office, demonstrates accountability, adaptability, commitment to learning, computer skills list. That's a mix of qualifications and skills. Could put under "Qualifications". Or we could have "Skills" for technical skills (Adobe Illustrator, Browzwear, Gerber, PLM, MS Office) and "Qualifications" for education/experience. But we need to avoid thin sections; but we have enough content for both.
We also have Company Description; but instruction says do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Company Description is not a heading from the list; but we could include it as a
before sections? The instruction says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but likely they want only those headings. However we could include a
for company description. The instruction: "Reformat a job posting into clean, well-structured semantic HTML. Rules: use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences."
Thus we can include a
for company description. Then sections: About the role (position overview), Responsibilities (essential duties), Qualifications (education/experience), Skills (technical skills). Could also combine Qualifications and Skills if we want fewer sections. But we have enough content for both.
We need to use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So for responsibilities we should list each duty as
- . For qualifications/skills we can also list as
- if they are list items. The posting has bullet-like sentences but not explicitly bulleted. We can convert each sentence into list items.
We must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include all details from company description, position overview, duties, experience/skills.
