We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Need to parse the posting. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "CLICK APPLY TO GET STARTED!" etc. We need to preserve all substantive info. Let's extract content: First paragraph: "SFS is growing, and we're looking for experienced Retail Merchandisers to join our nationwide network of independent contractors. This is an excellent opportunity for self-motivated professionals seeking flexible, supplemental income while servicing some of the nation's largest retailers and brands. Our clients provide service windows rather than specific work schedules, allowing you a flexible schedule that works for you while meeting project requirements. Assignments may include merchandising, product resets, cut-ins, inventory audits, display maintenance, POP installation, product stocking, and other retail support activities. Typical projects range from 12-20 hours per month, with some retailer locations requiring service during the first two weeks of each month. If you enjoy working independently, staying active, and delivering high-quality retail execution, we'd love to connect with you." That's about the role. Then "Why Contract with SFS?" bullet list: Set your own schedule, Choose the projects that fit your availability, Supplemental income opportunities, Competitive project-based pay, DailyPay available (enrollment required), Ongoing merchandising, reset, and retail support projects, Opportunities to service multiple retailers and brands. That could be Benefits? Or maybe Benefits and Pay sections. Then "What You'll Do" list: Review project instructions and client expectations before each assignment, Execute merchandising projects according to client requirements, Perform product resets, cut-ins, display maintenance, and promotional installations, Remove discontinued or outdated products and materials, Conduct inventory counts and product scanning activities, Stock and organize merchandise according to planograms and merchandising standards, Ensure displays are clean, organized, and accurately presented, Travel between retail locations as desired and accepted, Complete required reporting, including photos and project documentation, using a mobile device, Submit project completion reports on the same day services are performed. That's Responsibilities. Then "Skills & Qualifications" list: Previous merchandising, retail, reset, auditing, or customer service experience preferred, Ability to read and execute planograms and merchandising instructions, Strong attention to detail and organizational skills, Ability to work independently and manage multiple assignments, Effective communication and problem-solving skills, Comfortable using mobile technology for reporting and project documentation, Available to complete assignments during retailer service windows, primarily weekday daytime hours, Ability to lift and carry up to 40 pounds repeatedly, Ability to bend, stoop, reach, kneel, and stand for extended periods, Reliable transportation for travel between assigned retail locations, Smartphone or tablet (Android or iOS) with internet access, Active email address for project communication and reporting, Ability to submit project completion reports and photos on the same day work is performed. That's Qualifications/Skills. Then "About SFS" paragraph: SFS is a leading provider of retail merchandising, auditing, installation, and assembly services to Fortune 1000 manufacturers and retailers throughout the United States, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. Our independent contractor network supports millions of retail projects annually across nearly every ZIP code in the country. Join a trusted industry leader and enjoy the flexibility to build a schedule that works for you while supporting some of the biggest names in retail. That could be About the role? Actually we already have about the role earlier. Could treat as "About the company" but not required heading. The instruction says use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to map content accordingly. We have: - About the role: first paragraph (maybe also the About SFS paragraph? but that's about company). We'll put About the role as the initial description. - Responsibilities: "What You'll Do" list. - Requirements: maybe combine with Qualifications? The instruction includes both Requirements and Qualifications sections. We could split: Requirements could be things like "Available to complete assignments during retailer service windows, primarily weekday daytime hours", "Ability to lift and carry up to 40 pounds repeatedly", etc. Qualifications could be experience, skills. But we can also just put all under Qualifications if Requirements not distinct. However we should only include sections when posting has real specific content. It does have both experience and ability items. Could separate. - Skills: maybe separate from Qualifications? The heading list includes Skills as separate. Could put skills like "Ability to read and execute planograms", "Strong attention to detail", "Effective communication", "Comfortable using mobile technology". Qualifications could be experience and physical requirements. - Benefits: from "Why Contract with SFS?" list: Set your own schedule, Choose the projects that fit your availability, Supplemental income opportunities, Competitive project-based pay, DailyPay available (enrollment required), Ongoing merchandising, reset, and retail support projects, Opportunities to service multiple retailers and brands. - Pay: maybe we have "Competitive project-based pay" and "DailyPay available". That's pay info. Could be separate Pay section. - Schedule: from "Our clients provide service windows rather than specific work schedules, allowing you a flexible schedule that works for you while meeting project requirements." Also "Typical projects range from 12-20 hours per month, with some retailer locations requiring service during the first two weeks of each month." Also "Available to complete assignments during retailer service windows, primarily weekday daytime hours." So schedule info. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual specifics. We need to output only HTML fragment, no markdown fences. We'll produce something like:

About the role

SFS is growing, and we're looking for experienced Retail Merchandisers to join our nationwide network of independent contractors. This is an excellent opportunity for self-motivated professionals seeking flexible, supplemental income while servicing some of the nation's largest retailers and brands. Our clients provide service windows rather than specific work schedules, allowing you a flexible schedule that works for you while meeting project requirements. Assignments may include merchandising, product resets, cut-ins, inventory audits, display maintenance, POP installation, product stocking, and other retail support activities. Typical projects range from 12-20 hours per month, with some retailer locations requiring service during the first two weeks of each month. If you enjoy working independently, staying active, and delivering high-quality retail execution, we'd love to connect with you.

Responsibilities

  • Review project instructions and client expectations before each assignment
  • Execute merchandising projects according to client requirements
  • Perform product resets, cut-ins, display maintenance, and promotional installations
  • Remove discontinued or outdated products and materials
  • Conduct inventory counts and product scanning activities
  • Stock and organize merchandise according to planograms and merchandising standards
  • Ensure displays are clean, organized, and accurately presented
  • Travel between retail locations as desired and accepted
  • Complete required reporting, including photos and project documentation, using a mobile device
  • Submit project completion reports on the same day services are performed

Requirements

  • Available to complete assignments during retailer service windows, primarily weekday daytime hours
  • Ability to lift and carry up to 40 pounds repeatedly
  • Ability to bend, stoop, reach, kneel, and stand for extended periods
  • Reliable transportation for travel between assigned retail locations
  • Smartphone or tablet (Android or iOS) with internet access
  • Active email address for project communication and reporting
  • Ability to submit project completion reports and photos on the same day work is performed

Qualifications

  • Previous merchandising, retail, reset, auditing, or customer service experience preferred
  • Ability to read and execute planograms and merchandising instructions
  • Strong attention to detail and organizational skills
  • Ability to work independently and manage multiple assignments
  • Effective communication and problem-solving skills

Skills

  • Ability to read and execute planograms and merchandising instructions
  • Strong attention to detail and organizational skills
  • Ability to work independently and manage multiple assignments
  • Effective communication and problem-solving skills
  • Comfortable using mobile technology for reporting and project documentation
But note duplication: Skills list overlaps with Qualifications. Might be better to not duplicate. Perhaps we combine Qualifications and Skills into one section? But instruction says we can have both if content exists. However we should avoid redundancy. Could treat Qualifications as experience and physical requirements, Skills as abilities. But we already put physical requirements under Requirements. So Qualifications could be experience and soft skills. Skills could be technical abilities like reading planograms, using mobile tech. Let's adjust. Let's define: - Requirements: physical, logistical, availability, equipment. - Qualifications: experience, ability to read planograms, attention to detail, organizational skills, independent work, communication, problem-solving. - Skills: maybe "Comfortable using mobile technology for reporting and project documentation" and "Ability to submit project completion reports and photos same day". But those are also in Requirements. Hmm. Better to keep Qualifications as experience and soft skills, and Skills as technical abilities (reading planograms, using mobile tech). But we already have reading planograms in Qualifications. Could move it to Skills. Let's restructure: Requirements (logistical/physical): - Available to complete assignments during retailer service windows, primarily weekday daytime hours - Ability to lift and carry up to 40 pounds repeatedly - Ability to bend, stoop, reach, kneel, and stand for extended periods - Reliable transportation for travel between assigned retail locations - Smartphone or tablet (Android or iOS) with internet access - Active email address for project communication and reporting - Ability to submit project completion reports and photos on the same day work is performed Qualifications (experience & soft skills): - Previous merchandising, retail, reset, auditing, or customer service experience preferred - Strong attention to detail and organizational skills - Ability to work independently and manage multiple assignments - Effective communication and problem-solving skills Skills (technical): - Ability to read and execute planograms and merchandising instructions - Comfortable using mobile technology for reporting and project documentation But note "Ability to submit project completion reports and photos on the same day work is performed" is already in Requirements; we could keep there. Now Benefits:

Benefits

  • Set your own schedule
  • Choose the projects that fit your availability
  • Supplemental income opportunities
  • Competitive project-based pay
  • DailyPay available (enrollment required)
  • Ongoing merchandising, reset, and retail support projects
  • Opportunities to service multiple retailers and brands
Pay: maybe we already covered in Benefits. But we could separate Pay: "Competitive project-based pay" and "DailyPay available (enrollment required)". However that would duplicate. Better to keep Pay section only if distinct info beyond Benefits. Since we already have those in Benefits, we could omit Pay section to avoid thin sections. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we can omit Pay if covered in Benefits. Schedule: we have schedule info in About the role paragraph and also in Requirements. Could create Schedule section with specifics: flexible schedule, service windows, typical projects 12-20 hours per month, some locations require
