We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Relocation assistance is not available for this position." and "Dollar General Corporation is an equal opportunity employer." Also remove "About Us" and "Company Overview" maybe? Those are not required sections but could be considered "About the role"? Actually "About Us" is company overview, not role. The instruction: "Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we can include sections like About the role (maybe from General Summary), Responsibilities (Duties), Requirements/Qualifications (Job Qualifications, Knowledge and Skills, Work Experience/Education), Skills (maybe separate), Benefits, Pay, Schedule only if present. The posting does not mention benefits, pay, schedule. So we should not include those sections.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to extract:
- General Summary: "Act as the point of contact for customers. Assist in setting and maintaining plan-o-grams and programs. Stock merchandise adequately. Perform other duties as necessary to maximize profitability, customer satisfaction, and teamwork, while protecting company assets."
- Duties And Essential Job Functions: list of duties (many). We need to format as - each duty.
- Job Qualifications Knowledge and Skills: list of knowledge/skills.
- Work Experience and/or Education: "High school diploma or equivalent preferred."
- Working Conditions: list of conditions.
We could combine Qualifications and Skills sections? The instruction says we can have sections like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide how to split. Perhaps:
- About the role (General Summary)
- Responsibilities (Duties)
- Requirements (maybe combine Knowledge and Skills + Work Experience/Education)
- Skills (maybe separate knowledge/skills)
But we should avoid thin sections. Better to have:
About the role
...
Responsibilities
...
Requirements
...
(including knowledge/skills, work experience, working conditions?)
But we need to preserve all details. Could separate into:
Knowledge and Skills
...
Work Experience and Education
High school diploma or equivalent preferred.
Working Conditions
...
But the instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine Knowledge and Skills + Work Experience/Education + Working Conditions into a single "Requirements" section with sublists? However we must use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can have multiple lists within a section.
We could do:
About the role
...
Responsibilities
...
Requirements
...
(including knowledge/skills, work experience, working conditions as list items)
But we need to ensure we don't lose nuance. Let's extract each piece.
General Summary sentences:
"Act as the point of contact for customers. Assist in setting and maintaining plan-o-grams and programs. Stock merchandise adequately. Perform other duties as necessary to maximize profitability, customer satisfaction, and teamwork, while protecting company assets."
We can combine into a paragraph.
Duties list (from "Duties And Essential Job Functions"):
- Unload trucks.

- Assist with ordering merchandise using hand-held scanners, as needed.
- Clean front end of store and help set up sidewalk displays when necessary.
We need to split by periods? The original text had no spaces after periods sometimes. We'll parse manually.
Now Knowledge and Skills list:
- Effective interpersonal and oral communication skills.
- Understanding of safety policies and practices.
- Ability to read and follow plan-o-gram and merchandise presentation guidance.
- Knowledge of basic cash handling procedures.
- Basic mathematical skills.
- Ability to perform IBM cash register functions.
Work Experience/Education:

Working Conditions list (from "Working Conditions"):

- Frequent and proper lifting of up to 40 pounds; occasional lifting of up to 55 pounds

We should keep each as list item.
Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no /, no markdown.
We'll produce:

But we need to ensure we didn't miss any. Also note we added periods at end of each list item for consistency; but we should preserve original wording exactly? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." Adding periods is okay as punctuation not changing meaning. However we added "Frequent walking and standing." originally had no period; adding period is fine. Also we added period after "High school diploma or
