We need to output HTML fragment with sections for Responsibilities, Required Qualifications, Desired Qualifications, Knowledge, Skills, & Abilities, Work Environment And Special Considerations, Pay Benefits And Work Schedule (if present). Also maybe Conditions of Employment? The instruction: include a section only when posting has real, specific content. We have content for Responsibilities, Required Qualifications, Desired Qualifications, Knowledge, Skills, & Abilities, Work Environment And Special Considerations, Pay Benefits And Work Schedule. Also Conditions of Employment is present but not listed as a standard heading; we could include as a section if we think it's relevant? The allowed headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. They said use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should map content to those headings. "Required Qualifications" and "Desired Qualifications" could go under Qualifications. "Knowledge, Skills, & Abilities" could go under Skills. "Work Environment And Special Considerations" maybe not a standard heading; could be omitted or placed under About the role? But we should only include sections when posting has real content; we could include a generic "About the role" for work environment? However the instruction: "Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It suggests we can use those headings, but not required to use only those; but likely they expect those headings. We'll map: - Responsibilities: from the Responsibilities DESCRIPTION block. - Qualifications: combine Required Qualifications and Desired Qualifications (maybe separate subheadings? but we can just list both under Qualifications with
    maybe separate

    ? Not allowed? We can just list items. - Skills: from Knowledge, Skills, & Abilities. - Pay: from Pay Benefits And Work Schedule line: "$22.34 hourly up to 26 hours per week." That includes pay and schedule. Could split into Pay and Schedule sections. Since we have both pay and schedule info, we can create Pay section with hourly rate, and Schedule section with up to 26 hours per week. - Benefits: not explicitly stated besides maybe Veterans' preference etc. Not specific benefits like health insurance. So we should not create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It does not mention benefits like health, retirement. So omit Benefits. - About the role: maybe we could include Work Environment And Special Considerations as About the role. But we could also omit if not needed. However we have content about work environment; we could put under About the role. - Requirements: maybe not needed if we have Qualifications. We must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include all details from responsibilities, qualifications, desired qualifications, knowledge/skills/abilities, work environment, pay, schedule, conditions of employment? The conditions of employment includes residency, background checks etc. That's substantive; we need to include it somewhere. Could be under a section like "Requirements" or "About the role". Since we have a heading "Requirements" allowed, we could place conditions of employment there. But we also have qualifications. Might be better to have a section "Requirements" for conditions of employment (like residency, background checks). However the instruction: "Use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we can use Requirements for conditions of employment. Thus sections: - Responsibilities (h3) with ul of duties. - Qualifications (h3) with ul: Required Qualifications and Desired Qualifications maybe as sub-items? Could separate with but we can just list. - Skills (h3) with ul of knowledge, skills, abilities. - Requirements (h3) with ul of Conditions of Employment (residency, background checks, fingerprinting, etc.) plus maybe Veterans' preference? Actually Veterans' preference is mentioned multiple times; could be included under Requirements or About the role. We'll include under Requirements. - Pay (h3) with p: "$22.34 hourly" - Schedule (h3) with p: "up to 26 hours per week" - About the role (h3) with p: Work Environment And Special Considerations description. We must not repeat job title. No metadata like Job ID. We must remove boilerplate: EEO, application instructions, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. We must preserve all substantive information: ensure we include all bullet points from responsibilities, qualifications, etc. Let's extract responsibilities list: From text: "Provides foundational guidance to startup, pre-venture, and early-stage small business clients on business planning, market research, operations, marketing, and financial literacy through in-person and virtual consultations under the direction of the SBDC Director."
