We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings that have content. Use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must only include sections when posting has real specific content. We need to extract content.
The posting includes:
- About The Department (description). Could map to "About the role"? Actually "About The Department" is about department, not role. But we can treat as "About the role"? The instruction: use

The posting includes:
- About The Department (description). Could map to "About the role"? Actually "About The Department" is about department, not role. But we can treat as "About the role"? The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should map content to these headings if present.
We have:
- About The Department: description of department. Could be considered "About the role"? Might be okay.
- The Position: description of role. Could be considered "About the role" as well. But we need to avoid duplication. Perhaps combine department and position into About the role.
- Essential Functions: list of duties. That maps to Responsibilities.
- Qualifications: list of qualifications.
- Skills: maybe not explicitly listed but we have many skill statements within qualifications. Could create Skills section from those.
- Benefits: mention of benefits: medical, dental, vision, life insurance, disability, 401(k), FSA, EAP, tuition reimbursement, voluntary benefits, time off policies. So we have benefits content.
- Pay: base compensation range $229,200 to $401,100, plus bonus, long-term incentive, company vehicles. So we have Pay.
- Schedule: not mentioned except travel 20-30% overnight travel. That's not schedule. No explicit schedule. So we should not create Schedule section.
- Also there is "Physical Requirements" about travel. Could be part of Responsibilities? Not needed.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, etc. Remove duplicated lines.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include all details from the posting, but organized under headings.
We must not repeat job title as heading. The title is "Senior Director, Marketing for Pipeline Products and Portfolio Strategy". Not to be used as heading.
We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
Thus produce something like:
About the role
About the role
...combined department description and position description...
Responsibilities
- ... each essential function bullet...
Qualifications
- ... each qualification bullet...
Skills
- ... skill statements extracted from qualifications...
Benefits
- ... benefits list...
Pay
... compensation details...
We must ensure not to include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to extract details precisely. Let's parse the posting.
