We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We need to parse the job posting.
The posting includes:
- Location: Store - DC-STERLING, VA (maybe location line)
- Description: Plan, coordinate, and facilitate events (including kids birthday parties) within a Michaels store to provide a stress-free, fun, and engaging experience for guests. Deliver friendly customer service by helping customers shop at our store and find what they’re looking for. Ensure all customers receive a fast and friendly checkout experience. Complete operational tasks including truck unload, merchandise duties, and maintaining store recovery standards as needed to deliver our Brand Promises.
Then subheadings: Event Coordination (list of duties), Customer Experience (list of duties), Preferred Knowledge/Skills/Abilities (list), Other duties as assigned, Preferred Type Of Experience (list), Physical Requirements, Work Environment, Applicants in the U.S. must satisfy..., Total Base Pay Range For This Position $12.77 - $15.00, This position may be eligible for overtime compensation..., At The Michaels Companies Inc., our purpose...

We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Preferred Knowledge/Skills/Abilities Other duties as assigned" maybe not needed? Actually "Preferred Knowledge/Skills/Abilities" is a heading but we need to see if there is content. The text after that: "Other duties as assigned". That's vague; maybe we should not include a section if it's just placeholder. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we might combine skills etc.
We need sections: About the role (maybe a summary), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements/Qualifications/Skills (maybe combine), Benefits, Pay, Schedule (if present). Schedule not explicitly given; maybe work hours include nights, weekends, early mornings. That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section.
Let's extract substantive content:
About the role: Could be the introductory paragraph: "Plan, coordinate, and facilitate events (including kids birthday parties) within a Michaels store to provide a stress-free, fun, and engaging experience for guests. Deliver friendly customer service by helping customers shop at our store and find what they’re looking for. Ensure all customers receive a fast and friendly checkout experience.
