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. We need to parse the posting. The posting includes: - About Checkr (company description) – not needed as heading? The instruction: "use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we should create sections for those headings if content exists. The "About Checkr" is not one of those headings; we could maybe treat as "About the role"? Actually "About The Team/role" section exists. That could map to "About the role". We'll include that. - Responsibilities: "What You’ll Do" bullet list. - Requirements: maybe "What You Bring" includes JD, years experience etc. That's qualifications/requirements. Could split into Requirements and Qualifications? The instruction says we can have both headings; we need to decide based on content. Usually "Requirements" are mandatory; "Qualifications" maybe preferred. But we can combine? Better to follow instruction: include sections only when posting has real specific content for it. We have content for both Requirements and Qualifications? The "What You Bring" includes JD degree, active bar membership, 5-8 years experience, hands-on M&A, etc. That could be both Requirements and Qualifications. We could split: Requirements: JD degree and active bar membership, 5-8 years experience. Qualifications: hands-on M&A, IPO readiness, etc. But we need to avoid thin sections. Might be better to have one "Requirements" section covering all. However instruction list includes both; we can choose to include only those with substantive content. We have content for Requirements (JD, bar, years). Also we have content for Qualifications (M&A experience, IPO readiness, etc). Could include both. - Skills: maybe "Strong collaborator..." etc. That's skills. Could be included. - Benefits: "What We Offer" includes list: fast-paced environment, learning allowance, competitive cash and equity, 100% medical dental vision, up to $25K reimbursement, flexible PTO, monthly wellness stipend, in-office perks, relocation stipend. Also mention office expectations. That's benefits. - Pay: "On-target Earnings OR Base Salary range (San Francisco, CA) $229,000—$269,000 USD". Also mention geographic cost of labor etc. That's pay. - Schedule: "Individuals are expected to work from the office 3+ days a week." Also mention hub locations. That's schedule. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, privacy, etc. Also not include navigation, cookie, legal, duplicated lines. Also not include "About Checkr" maybe not needed as heading; but we could incorporate into "About the role"? The "About The Team/role" section is about the team and role. We'll use that as About the role. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep details like specific numbers, etc. We need to format using

for each section heading, then content: either

for prose, or

  • for lists. We must not repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it). No job title given in snippet, but we ignore. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. We must output ONLY the HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's craft. First, About the role: content from "About The Team/role". Paragraph(s). Let's extract: "Reporting to Checkr’s Vice President, Corporate & Commercial, you’ll be a key member of a lean, collaborative legal team, helping deliver the corporate legal work behind Checkr’s next stage of growth — including IPO readiness, M&A, securities, and corporate governance. You’ll own defined corporate and transactional workstreams with direct guidance from the Vice President, providing crisp, risk-based advice and knowing when to escalate or bring in outside counsel. Working closely with the Finance and Corporate Strategy teams and external counsel, you’ll help build the processes and playbooks that let Checkr’s legal function scale with the business. This role is based in our San Francisco office." We can keep as a paragraph. Second, Responsibilities: from "What You’ll Do". It's a list of items separated by periods? Let's list each bullet: - Provide hands-on support across corporate transactional work — M&A and other strategic transactions — including deal structure and LOI input, due diligence, drafting and negotiating deal agreements, and post-closing integration. - Support IPO readiness, including cross-functional readiness planning and assisting with S-1 drafting. - Execute equity and debt financing transactions and maintain ongoing compliance - Coordinate with the legal, finance, and corporate strategy teams and external corporate counsel to keep transactions and workstreams on track. - Advise on and support corporate governance matters, including board and shareholder logistics and governance policies - General corporate work, including corporate registrations and filings, entity administration, leases, and intercompany agreements - Manage stock administration, equity matters, securities filings, and employee equity education. - Help manage Checkr’s insurance and enterprise risk programs - Assist sales leadership on variable compensation plans - Build and improve processes and workflows that scale with Checkr’s growth, and identify opportunities to make the legal team more efficient. We'll put each as
  • . Third, Requirements: from "What You Bring" first part: "JD degree and active membership in good standing of a state Bar.5–8 years of corporate and securities law experience; a mix of top law firm and in-house experience is a plus." We need to keep the period spacing: there's a missing space after Bar. but we keep as is. We'll make a paragraph. Fourth, Qualifications: maybe the rest: "Hands-on M&A transactional experience, with exposure to IPO readiness or public-company matters a strong plus.Solid working knowledge of corporate, securities, and transactional matters, with the judgment to spot and triage key issues and know when to escalate or engage outside counsel.A pragmatic problem-solver who provides crisp, timely, risk-based advice and communicates it clearly to non-lawyers.Strong collaborator with excellent written and verbal communication skills who builds trust across teams and represents Checkr well with external parties.Highly organized, able to prioritize and manage multiple projects in a fast-paced environment, with strong attention to detail and discretion handling confidential information.An A-player mindset with a strong bias for action: you raise the bar, move with urgency, stay resilient through ambiguity, and take ownership to deliver meaningful outcomes." We could split into Skills and Qualifications but we already have Skills maybe. Let's treat this as Qualifications (preferred). We'll keep as paragraph(s) maybe bullet? It's a series of sentences; we can keep as

    . Fifth, Skills: maybe we could extract specific skills like "Strong collaborator...", "Highly organized...", "A-player mindset..." but those are already in Qualifications. Might be redundant. Perhaps better to not have Skills section if content overlaps. But we need to follow instruction: include a section only when posting has real specific content for it. We have content for skills (collaborator, communication, organized, etc). Could make Skills section with those bullet points. However we already used those in Qualifications. To avoid duplication, we could treat Qualifications as the list of qualifications (education, experience) and Skills as the soft skills. Let's split: Qualifications: JD, bar, 5-8 years experience, mix of top law firm and in-house experience a plus. Skills: Hands-on M&A transactional experience, exposure to IPO readiness/public-company matters a plus; solid working knowledge of corporate, securities, transactional matters; judgment to spot/triage key issues; pragmatic problem-solver; strong collaborator with excellent written/verbal communication; highly organized, able to prioritize manage multiple projects; strong attention to detail and discretion; A-player mindset with bias for action. That seems reasonable. Thus we will have: - About the role (h3) - Responsibilities (h3) - Requirements (h3) - Skills (h3) - Qualifications (h3) maybe order: Requirements then Qualifications then Skills? But we already used Requirements for education/experience; Qualifications for knowledge/judgment etc; Skills for soft skills. We'll keep order: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Now Benefits: from "What We Offer". List items: - A fast-paced and collaborative environment - Learning and development allowance - Competitive cash and equity compensation, and opportunity for advancement - 100% medical, dental, and vision coverage - Up to $25K reimbursement for fertility, adoption, and parental planning services - Flexible PTO policy - Monthly wellness stipend - In-office perks: lunch five times a week, a commuter stipend, and an abundance of snacks and beverages. - A relocation stipend may be available for those willing to relocate to a Checkr hub location. Also mention hub locations and expectation: "At Checkr, we believe an in office work environment strengthens collaboration, drives innovation, and encourages connection. Our hub locations are Denver, CO; San Francisco, CA; Nashville, TN; and Santiago, Chile. Individuals are expected to work from the office 3+ days a week." That's more schedule/benefits? Could be part of Benefits (in-office perks) and Schedule. We'll keep the in-office perks as part of Benefits; the expectation of 3+ days a week goes to Schedule. Thus Benefits list includes those items. Pay: from "Pay Transparency Disclosure" and "On-target Earnings OR Base Salary range (San Francisco, CA) $229,000—$269,000 USD". Also mention geographic cost of labor etc. We'll keep the range and note that ranges vary by location. We'll keep as paragraph. Schedule: from "Individuals are expected to work from the office 3+ days a week." Also mention hub locations maybe. We'll include that as paragraph. Now we need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like EEO, privacy, etc. We'll omit those sections. Now produce HTML. We'll need to escape any special characters? Not needed. Let's craft:
