We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we have company description, job description, essential functions, qualifications, additional information (benefits). We must use

for section headings: e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have content for: About the role? Could be job description summary. Could use "About the role" heading with description paragraph. Responsibilities: essential functions list. Requirements: qualifications (education, experience). Skills: additional skills list. Benefits: benefits list. Pay: not specified (only "competitive pay, bonus opportunities" but no specific numbers; we should not create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It says "competitive pay, bonus opportunities" but no specifics; that's vague. According to rule: 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. Benefits we have specifics: list of benefits. Pay we have only "competitive pay, bonus opportunities" which is vague but still states pay exists. However rule says we should not create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It does state competitive pay, bonus opportunities, but not specific numbers. Is that considered stating them? Likely yes, they mention pay and bonus opportunities. But we need to be careful: they said "competitive pay, bonus opportunities, and a benefits package". That is a statement about pay. So we could include Pay section with that sentence. However they also said "never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., 'commensurate with experience', 'not specified', 'N/A', 'varies', 'TBD')". "competitive pay, bonus opportunities" is not filler; it's a statement. So we can include Pay. Schedule: they mention "How would you like Sundays off? Yes, every Sunday we’re closed!" That's schedule info: Sundays off. So we can include Schedule section with that. Thus sections: About the role (maybe from company description + job description overview), Responsibilities (essential functions), Requirements (education + experience), Skills (additional skills), Benefits (list), Pay (competitive pay, bonus opportunities), Schedule (Sundays off). Ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. No metadata like Job ID. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from company description, job description, essential functions, qualifications, additional skills, benefits, pay, schedule. We must remove boilerplate: EEO statement, navigation, cookie, legal, etc. At end there is "We are an equal opportunity employer..." remove that. Also remove duplicated lines. We need to format using

for each section heading, then content: either

for prose,

  • for lists. Let's extract content. Company Description: "At Eyeglass World, we are more than just an optical retailer, we are a fashion-forward destination where style meets service and quality eye care.

Essential Functions list: bullet points under headings: Create an Exceptional Customer Experience, Support Clinical & In Store Flow, Own Finish & Quality Excellence, Operate with Precision & Care, Bring the Brand to Life. Each has sub-bullets. We need to flatten into a list? The instruction: Use

Additional Skills (Required): Strong multitasking, time management and organizational skills; Clear communication and the ability to educate customers effectively; Ability to prioritize customer satisfaction at every interaction; Support store team in shared goals.

Could be prose. Pay: "At National Vision, we reward hard work with competitive pay, bonus opportunities, and a benefits package to support you and your family now and in the future." So Pay section: competitive pay, bonus opportunities. Schedule: "How would you like Sundays off? Yes, every Sunday we’re closed!" So schedule: Sundays off. Now produce HTML. We'll start with

      Responsibilities

      • ... each duty as
