We need to output HTML fragment with sections: Use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We need to parse the posting.
The posting includes: Intro paragraph about company, then "What You'll Do - You'll Make The Moment" then bullet list of duties. Then "Bachelor’s degree Minimum 5 years of relevant investigator experience Strong understanding of employment laws..." etc. Then "Focus on You" then benefits list. Then "A Little About Us" then EEO etc.
We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we should remove the EEO paragraph at end, also "Apply now." maybe considered application instruction? It says remove application instructions. So remove "Apply now." Also remove "See for yourself." maybe not needed.
We need to preserve substantive info.
We need sections: About the role (maybe intro paragraph?), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements (maybe education/experience?), Qualifications (maybe skills?), Skills (maybe specific abilities), Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to decide what content fits each.
The posting: "They say you are the company you keep - and at Cracker Barrel, we take that seriously. At the Store Support Center, we’re in the business of serving those who serve our guests. Whether you’re designing solutions, telling our story, or setting our teams up for success, your work makes a difference every single day. Here, the work means more because we take pride in doing it together. So, join our team and find your place, because here...we’re all in good company." This is about the role/company. Could be "About the role".
Then "What You'll Do - You'll Make The Moment" then list of duties. That's responsibilities.
Then after duties: "Bachelor’s degree Minimum 5 years of relevant investigator experience Strong understanding of employment laws and regulations, including the Fair Labor Standards Act and equivalent state-level regulations Highly skilled at reviewing financial business records and payroll data Strong conflict resolution skills Outstanding communication skills, both written and verbal, including the ability to relay legal concepts, policies, documents in a manner easily understood by non-lawyers Ability to analyze compliance issues, and provide practical, business-oriented solutions. Excellent interpersonal and problem-solving skills and ability to work collaboratively across various teams and departments and maintain strong relationships at all levels of the organization. Exceptional proficiency with Microsoft Office and related business software. Ability to work extended hours seated at a computer. Frequent use of hands and arms to reach, grasp, and manipulate objects."
These are qualifications/requirements/skills. We need to split into Requirements (education, experience), Qualifications (maybe knowledge), Skills (specific abilities). But we can combine if thin. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we combine Requirements and Qualifications into one? But we have headings list; we can include only those with content.
We have Benefits: "Good Work Deserves Good Pay: Competitive Annual Salary | Annual Bonus Opportunities Support That Goes Beyond the Clock: Medical, Rx, Dental and Vision Benefits on Day 1| Life Insurance and Disability Coverage | Paid Vacation/Employee Assistance Program Grow and Thrive Your Way: Business Resource Groups | Tuition Reimbursement | Professional Development Culture of Belonging: Support that starts on day one | Onboarding, training, and development to help you thrive | Recognition programs and employee events that bring us together Invest in Your Future: 401k Plan with Company Matching Contributions at 90 days | Employee Stock Purchase Program More Perks, Just Because: 35% Discount on Cracker Barrel Food and Retail items | Exclusive Biscuit Perks like discounts on home, travel, cell phones, and more!"
Pay: "Competitive Annual Salary | Annual Bonus Opportunities" is mentioned under Benefits but also could be Pay. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. Pay is stated: Competitive Annual Salary | Annual Bonus Opportunities. So we should include Pay section with that.
Schedule: Not mentioned. No schedule info. So omit Schedule.
Benefits: many benefits listed. So include Benefits.
Now we need to decide sections: About the role (intro), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements (education/experience), Qualifications (maybe knowledge/skills), Skills (maybe specific abilities), Benefits, Pay.
But we might combine Requirements and Qualifications into one "Requirements" section to avoid thin sections. However we have specific headings list; we can include only those with substantive content. Let's see if we can split meaningfully:
- Requirements: Bachelor’s degree, Minimum 5 years of relevant investigator experience.
- Qualifications: Strong understanding of employment laws and regulations, including FLSA and state-level; Highly skilled at reviewing financial business records and payroll data; Strong conflict resolution skills; Outstanding communication skills...; Ability to analyze compliance issues...; Excellent interpersonal and problem-solving skills...; Ability to work collaboratively...; Exceptional proficiency with Microsoft Office...; Ability to work extended hours seated at a computer; Frequent use of hands and arms...
- Skills: maybe overlapping with qualifications. Could treat qualifications as skills. But we need to avoid duplication.
Given instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we combine Requirements and Qualifications into one "Requirements" section, and then have a "Skills" section for specific proficiencies like Microsoft Office, extended hours, etc. But that may still be thin.
Alternatively, we could have: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (education+experience+knowledge), Benefits, Pay. That's 4 sections. That seems reasonable.
We need to include

Pay
Competitive Annual Salary | Annual Bonus Opportunities
But note we duplicated Pay info also in Benefits list as first item. Might be redundant. The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep that info somewhere. If we put it in Benefits list, we still need Pay section. Could we avoid duplication by moving Pay info to Pay section only and not duplicate in Benefits? But the benefits list includes that line as part of "Good Work Deserves Good Pay: Competitive Annual Salary | Annual Bonus Opportunities". If we remove it from Benefits, we lose that detail from benefits section. However we could keep it in Benefits as part of the list, and also have Pay section repeating it. That's duplication but preserves info. The instruction says do NOT duplicate lines? Actually earlier: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." It says remove duplicated lines. So we should avoid duplicating the same line. So we should not repeat the same sentence. So we need to decide where to place the Pay info. Since Pay is a separate section, we could put it there and not duplicate in Benefits. But then Benefits would lose that line. However the Benefits section originally includes that line as part of "Good Work Deserves Good Pay". If we remove it, we might be losing some benefit info (the pay). But we have Pay section to capture it. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information. If we move it to Pay section and remove from Benefits, we still preserve it (just in a different place). That's acceptable as long as we don't lose it. The instruction about duplicated lines likely refers to identical lines appearing multiple times in the source; we should not keep duplicates. So we can keep it once.
Thus we will not include the pay line in Benefits list. We'll keep Benefits list without that line.
