The user wants me to reformat a job posting into clean, well-structured semantic HTML. I need to follow the rules: 1. Use

for section headings (e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule) 2. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose 3. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) 4. Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it 5. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail 6. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions 7. Include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text 8. Never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them 9. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones 10. Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences Let me analyze the job posting content: The posting has: - "Who We Are" section about BioMarin - "About Worldwide Research And Development" section - "Role" section describing the Senior Medical Writer role - "Responsibilities" section with bullet points - "SCOPE" section - "EXPERIENCE" section with requirements - "EDUCATION" section (but it's empty, just says "EDUCATION:") - "COMPUTER SKILLS" section (but it's empty, just says "COMPUTER SKILLS:") - Then a detailed breakdown of skills/requirements under numbered categories: 1) Medical Writing 2) Clinical Studies 3) Regulatory 4) Project Management 5) Communication - Then education requirement: "Bachelor's or higher degree required; scientific focus desirable." - Then certifications: "Evidence of medical writing career development desirable..." - Then computer skills: "Proficient in Microsoft Word..." - Then a note: "Note: This description is not intended to be all-inclusive..." - Then EEO boilerplate I need to structure this into appropriate sections. The user wants me to use standard headings like "About the role", "Responsibilities", "Requirements", "Qualifications", "Skills", etc. Let me map the content: - "Who We Are" and "About Worldwide Research And Development" could be combined into an "About the company" or "About the team" section, but the user said to use headings like "About the role". However, the company description is substantive. I'll include it as "About BioMarin" or similar. - "Role" section describes the role - this could be "About the role" - "Responsibilities" is clearly a responsibilities section - "SCOPE" could be part of "About the role" or separate - "EXPERIENCE", "EDUCATION", "COMPUTER SKILLS", and the numbered categories (1-5) are all requirements/qualifications/skills - The note at the end is boilerplate-ish but might be kept as a note - EEO is boilerplate to remove I need to decide on sections. The user said: "use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)". So I should use those standard headings where appropriate. I'll create: 1. About the role (combining "Role" and "SCOPE") 2. Responsibilities (the bullet list) 3. Requirements (combining EXPERIENCE, EDUCATION, and the numbered categories) 4. Qualifications (maybe the education and certifications) 5. Skills (the computer skills and specific medical writing skills) But the numbered categories (1-5) are detailed requirements. They could be under "Requirements" or "Qualifications". The user said "Requirements, Qualifications, Skills" as examples. I'll combine them into a "Requirements & Qualifications" section or separate. Better to have: - About the role - Responsibilities - Requirements (experience, education) - Qualifications (the detailed skills categories 1-5) - Skills (computer skills, certifications) But the user said "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe combine Requirements and Qualifications. Let me think: The posting has "EXPERIENCE:" with specific years and types, "EDUCATION:" (empty), "COMPUTER SKILLS:" (empty), then detailed categories 1-5. Then later education requirement, certifications, computer skills. I'll create: - About the role (including company context and role description) - Responsibilities - Requirements (experience, education, and the detailed categories 1-5) - Qualifications (certifications, computer skills) But the categories 1-5 are labeled as "Medical Writing", "Clinical Studies", "Regulatory", "Project Management", "Communication" - these are skills/competencies. Could be "Qualifications" or "Skills". I'll do: - About the role - Responsibilities - Requirements (experience and education) - Qualifications (the five competency areas) - Technical Skills (computer skills, software) And include the note as a paragraph at the end. Now, I must not include headings for Pay, Schedule, Benefits since not mentioned. Also, remove EEO boilerplate. Let me write the HTML. First, "Who We Are" and "About Worldwide Research And Development" are about the company/team. I'll include them in "About the role" or a separate "About BioMarin" section. The user said "About the role" as example heading. But the company description is not about the role. However, it's substantive. I'll include a "About BioMarin" section with h3. But the user said "use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)". It says "e.g.", so other headings are allowed. I'll use "About BioMarin" and "About the Role". Let's structure:

    About BioMarin

    ...company description...

    About Worldwide Research and Development

    ...WWRD description...

    About the Role

    ...role description...

    Scope

    ... etc for 5 categories

    Technical Skills

    Note: ...

    But the user said "use

    for section headings". They didn't mention h4. But the numbered categories are sub-sections. Could use h3 for each? That would be many h3s. The example headings are top-level. I think using h3 for main sections and maybe h4 for subsections is okay, but the instruction says "use

    for section headings". It doesn't forbid h4. However, to be safe, I could make each category a separate h3 section, but that would be many sections. The user said "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe combine the five categories under one "Qualifications" section with sub-lists. But the categories are distinct. I'll use h3 for each category? That would be 5 h3s. Might be okay. But the user said "section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills...)". So Qualifications is one heading. I'll put the five categories as subsections under Qualifications using h4 or just bold labels with lists. The instruction: "use

    for section headings" and "use
    • for any list". It doesn't say not to use h4. But to be safe, I'll use h3 for main sections only, and within Qualifications, I'll use for category names and then lists. Let me design:
