SALES ASSOCIATE in CAPE MAY COURT HOUSE NJ S13543
for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to map content.
Job description includes: General Summary, Duties and Essential Job Functions, Job Qualifications (Knowledge and Skills, Work Experience and/or Education), Working Conditions, Benefits, About Us, Company Overview.
We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate: EEO, relocation assistance note, etc. Also remove application instructions, cookie/navigation/legal, duplicated lines.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include sections: About the role (maybe from General Summary?), Responsibilities (Duties and Essential Job Functions), Requirements (maybe Work Experience/Education?), Qualifications (Knowledge and Skills?), Skills (maybe overlapping?), Benefits (benefits description), Pay (none given, so omit), Schedule (none given, omit). Also maybe Working Conditions could be part of Requirements or separate? Not listed as a heading option; we could put under Requirements or maybe as part of Responsibilities? But we must only use allowed headings. Could incorporate working conditions into Requirements or Responsibilities? Probably better to put under Requirements as it's about job demands. However we have separate headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide mapping.
We have: Knowledge and Skills (list). That's Skills. Work Experience and/or Education -> Requirements. Working Conditions maybe also Requirements? Could be part of Requirements. But we have also "Job Qualifications" heading in original includes Knowledge and Skills and Work Experience/Education. So we could map: Qualifications -> Knowledge and Skills; Requirements -> Work Experience/Education + Working Conditions. Skills maybe not needed separately if we already have Qualifications. But we can still include Skills if we have content; but we already have Knowledge and Skills list, which is skills. So we could put that under Skills heading. Then Qualifications could be something else? But we have no other qualifications besides that. Could combine.
Better: Use headings: About the role (General Summary), Responsibilities (Duties), Requirements (Work Experience/Education + Working Conditions), Skills (Knowledge and Skills), Benefits (Benefits). Omit Qualifications if redundant. But we must not create empty headings. So we need to decide.
Let's extract content:

About Us / Company Overview: Could be considered "About the role"? Actually About the role is already covered by General Summary. The About Us and Company Overview are generic company description; could be considered boilerplate? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. About Us and Company Overview might be considered boilerplate but they are substantive about company. However they are not specific to the role; but they are still part of posting. The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we should keep them if they are substantive. But we have no heading for About Us; we could put under "About the role"? But that heading is for role summary. Could we add another heading like "About the company"? Not allowed; only allowed headings list. So we must fit into allowed headings or drop if not fitting. The instruction: "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text". It doesn't forbid adding content under allowed headings that is not exactly matching but still relevant. For example, we could put company overview under "About the role" as it's still about the role context? Might be a stretch. Better to treat "About the role" as the general summary; we can incorporate company overview into that paragraph if we want, but that would be adding extra content not originally in the summary. However we could keep both: have About the role (General Summary) and then maybe another section like "About the company" not allowed. So maybe we drop the About Us and Company Overview as they are not role-specific and could be considered boilerplate? The instruction says remove boilerplate, but not explicitly say to remove company overview. However typical job postings include company overview; it's often considered boilerplate but still substantive. The instruction says "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we should keep it. But we lack a heading for it. Could we put it under "About the role" as a second paragraph? That would be adding content not originally under that heading but still okay because we are not inventing; we are just placing it there. The heading "About the role" could encompass both the role summary and company overview. That seems acceptable.
Thus we will have sections:
About the role
General Summary paragraph + maybe company overview paragraphs.
Responsibilities

We should not include Pay or Schedule. We must not include any boilerplate like "Relocation assistance is not available for this position." That's minor metadata; we can drop it. Also drop EEO statements, note about applications remaining open, etc. We need to ensure we preserve all substantive information: The general summary, duties, qualifications (knowledge/skills), work experience/education, working conditions, benefits. Also we should keep the sentence about "Dollar General is pleased to offer a wide range of benefit programs..." etc. That's benefits. We should also keep the sentence about "Available benefit programs include health insurance coverage options, a variety of supplemental programs, 401(k) Savings Plan, paid sick leave (where required by law), vacation, paid maternity and parental leave, and many more." and "Eligibility and waiting period requirements may apply. See careers.dollargeneral.com/benefits for additional details." We should also keep the sentence about "Dollar General Corporation has been delivering value to shoppers for more than 80 years..." etc from Company Overview if we include under About the role. Let's extract company overview paragraph: "Dollar General Corporation has been delivering value to shoppers for more than 80 years. Dollar General helps shoppers Save time. Save money. Every day.® by offering products that are frequently used and replenished, such as food, snacks, health and beauty aids, cleaning supplies, basic apparel, housewares and seasonal items at everyday low prices in convenient neighborhood locations. Learn more about Dollar General at www.dollargeneral.com/about-us.html." We can include that as part of About the role. Now format. We must output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. We'll produce:About the role
