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. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, no invented details. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. We need to parse the posting. Key sections: - Job Overview: description of role. Could be "About the role". Provide paragraph. - How Our Seasonal Selling Colleagues Spend Their Day…: details of daily activities. Could be "Responsibilities". - Who You Are: list of requirements (flexible availability, communication, etc). Could be "Requirements" or "Qualifications". Also "Essential Physical Requirements". Could be part of Requirements. - What We Can Offer You: benefits, pay, etc. Could be "Benefits". Also "Some Additional Benefits We Offer Include". Also mention "competitive pay". Pay not specific numbers, just "competitive pay". The rule: do NOT create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It says "competitive pay and benefits". That's a statement about pay but not specific numbers. Should we include Pay section? The rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state "competitive pay". That's stating pay exists but not amount. Is that enough? Likely we should include a Pay section with that statement? However they said "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." And "never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. 'commensurate with experience', 'not specified', 'N/A', 'varies', 'TBD')". "competitive pay" is not filler? It's vague but still a statement. Might be considered placeholder? Not sure. Safer to include Benefits section and maybe not separate Pay. Could combine pay into Benefits. Schedule: "Seasonal colleagues are typically scheduled to work 10-20 hours per week. Hours are dependent on business needs and colleague availability." That's specific enough for Schedule section. So include Schedule. Benefits: list of benefits: dynamic inclusive environment, competitive pay, comprehensive health and wellness coverage, 401(k) match, paid time off, eight paid holidays, continuous learning, leadership development, colleague resource groups, volunteer opportunities, merchandise discounts, performance-based incentives, annual merit review, Employee Assistance Program with mental health counseling and legal/financial advice. Also mention "Some Additional Benefits We Offer Include ..." So we can include Benefits section. Qualifications/Skills: The "Who You Are" includes flexible availability, communication, reading policies, meeting sales goals, enjoying meeting people, resourceful, adaptable, team dynamics, handle electronic devices. Also "Essential Physical Requirements" includes talking, lifting, constant moving, standing, reaching, etc. Could be under Requirements or Qualifications. We'll make a Requirements section covering both. Skills: maybe not separate; we could combine into Requirements. But we need to decide which headings to use. The instruction: use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can include only those with real content. We have About the role (Job Overview). Responsibilities (daily activities). Requirements (Who You Are + Essential Physical Requirements). Benefits (What We Can Offer You + Additional Benefits). Schedule (hours). Possibly Skills not needed separately. Qualifications maybe not needed if we used Requirements. But we could split: Requirements = flexible availability etc; Qualifications = maybe none; Skills = maybe none. Better to keep only substantive sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We'll produce:

Make sure to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract details.

If you're passionate about selling, reaching goals, working as a team, and creating amazing experiences through genuine hospitality, this could be the perfect fit for you! You’ll also help keep the shopping space clean, organized, and inviting so every customer feels welcome the moment they walk in." We'll put that as paragraph(s). Could be one

.

We'll bullet each. Requirements: from "Who You Are" and "Essential Physical Requirements". Who You Are bullet points: - Flexible availability, including days, evenings, weekends and holidays with regular, dependable attendance and punctuality - Must be able to: - Understand and communicate effectively with customers, co-workers, and supervisors - Read and understand employment policies and safety rules/procedures in English - Meeting daily sales goal challenges - Enjoy meeting people, learning about them, and sharing information - Resourceful and eager to start a new venture and can adapt to changing priorities; you can work on your own but are great with team dynamics - You can handle electronic devices with no problem Essential Physical Requirements: - This position requires talking, lifting, constant moving, standing, and reaching with arms and hands - Standing for at least two consecutive hours, lifting at least 25lbs., stooping, kneeling, crouching, and climbing ladders, reaching, including above eye level - Requires close vision, color vision, depth perception, and focus adjustment - Frequent use of computers and other technology, necessary to perform job functions, including handheld equipment, cash register and ability to process register transactions We'll combine into list items.

(maybe drop as link? but it's instruction; we can keep as sentence but it's basically a link; we could keep as "Access the full menu of benefits offerings here." Might be considered boilerplate? It's a link to benefits; but it's not EEO etc. Might keep but it's just a reference. Probably okay to keep as a sentence. We'll bullet each. Schedule: from "Seasonal colleagues are typically scheduled to work 10-20 hours per week. Hours are dependent on business needs and colleague availability. Information regarding hours per week needed for benefit eligibility purposes can be found here." We'll put that as paragraph. We must not include application instructions like "Apply Today!" etc. Also remove "About Us" maybe? The "About Us" paragraph is more about company story; could be considered part of About the role? But we already have About the role. The "About Us" is more generic company description; could be considered boilerplate? It's not EEO but it's promotional. Might be considered part of About the role? The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." The About Us is not explicitly prohibited, but it's not specific to the role; it's generic company story. Might be considered boilerplate? The posting already had a story at top about Macy's being a story. That's also generic. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. The story about Macy's being a story is substantive? It's more marketing fluff but still part of posting. However we already have About the role section; we could incorporate that story into About the role? But the instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities...). So we could have About the role include both the job overview and the company story? The job overview already describes role; the company story is separate. Might be okay to include as part of About the role paragraph. But we must not repeat the job title as heading. Already fine. We must not include duplicated lines. Ensure we don't repeat. Now produce HTML. We'll need to escape any HTML special characters? Not needed. Let's craft.
