for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but says use

for section headings (e.g. ...). It implies we should use those headings for sections; but we could still add other headings if needed? The instruction: "Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It suggests those are the expected headings. It also says "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text". It doesn't explicitly forbid other headings, but to be safe we should stick to those headings. So we need to fit "Who You Will Work With" into one of those sections. Perhaps under Responsibilities we can add a bullet about collaborating with those teams. Or we could add a paragraph under About the role describing cross-functional collaboration. Let's add a paragraph under About the role after the intro: "You will work closely with the Senior Manager, Social Media, Brand Marketing teams, Corporate and Brand Communications partners, Creative and Content Development teams, Consumer Insights and Analytics teams, Agency partners and content creators, and cross-functional marketing and commercial stakeholders supporting Campbell’s portfolio of brands." That preserves the info. Now check we haven't missed any other substantive info: "Why Campbell’s… Benefits begin on day one..." we captured. "How You Will Make History Here…" we captured in About the role? Actually we used About the role for company intro and role purpose; we could also incorporate the "How You Will Make History Here…" paragraph there. Let's include that as part of About the role: after company intro, add that paragraph. Thus About the role will contain: - Company intro paragraph. - "How You Will Make History Here…" paragraph (role description). - Collaboration paragraph (Who you will work with). That covers all. Now ensure we didn't duplicate content: Responsibilities list is separate. Now check we didn't include any boilerplate like "EEO" etc. We removed final paragraph about equal opportunity. Now output HTML. Let's craft final HTML. Be careful to escape any special characters? Not needed. We'll output:
