We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we have sections: Who We Are, Your Store Journey Starts Here, What You Will Work On, Who You Will Work With, What You Bring, Work Style & Physical Requirements, Key Skills. Also maybe Benefits, Pay, Schedule not present, so omit.
We need to use for section headings. Use
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: EEO etc. Also remove duplicated lines.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So include content from sections.
We need to decide which parts are lists. For example "What You Will Work On" includes bullet-like sentences but not explicit list. Could format as
- each sentence? The instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So if it's a list of duties, we should use list. The paragraph "In this role, you will help customers enjoy more sports and outdoor activities by making their store visits during their busiest season easier, friendlier, and more productive. You may support customers in sales, cashier, merchandising, and receiving work, giving you a broad view of how the store operates. Your efforts influence service, sales, store readiness, and the overall customer experience. You move where the store and its customers need support most, whether that means helping someone find the right product, completing checkout transactions, preparing merchandise for the sales floor, or keeping pricing and signage accurate. Throughout each shift, the work requires attention to detail, product knowledge, and a willingness to learn new processes. By keeping merchandise organized and store areas ready, you help the team serve customers quickly during a high-volume season."
We could treat each sentence as a list item? Might be overkill but okay. However we could also keep as
if not a list. The instruction says use list for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. The duties are enumerated implicitly but not bullet list. Safer to keep as
. But we could convert to list for clarity. I'd keep as
for prose.
Similarly "Who You Will Work With" could be prose.
"What You Bring" includes list of qualifications: "High school diploma or GED preferredPrevious related work experience preferredAbility to learn and adapt to a wide range of processes and proceduresEngaging customer service skills supported by effective listening and speakingBasic math skills and the ability to understand instructions through reading and writingProficiency using a handheld or desktop computer, point-of-sale equipment, and a telephoneAbility to learn and recall Academy products and services, understand customer needs, and provide assistanceA team-first attitude; while your core duties are your priority, you're happy to step in wherever you're needed"
These are separate items but not bullet. Could format as
- each. Probably better to list.
"Work Style & Physical Requirements" includes many bullet-like items: "Flexibility to work varying schedules, including evenings, weekends, and holidays, based on business needsCapability to remain on your feet and move throughout the store for extended periods during scheduled shiftsAbility to stand, walk, reach, handle items, and use repetitive hand, wrist, and finger motions throughout the shiftAbility to stoop, crouch, grasp, push, and pull frequently, and balance occasionallyAbility to lift up to 20 lbs constantly, 21 to 40 lbs frequently, and 41 to 60 lbs occasionallyAcceptable level of hearing and vision to perform job duties, including close, distance, color, peripheral, and depth vision and the ability to adjust focusAbility to follow company policies, procedures, professional standards, and safety rules"
Again could list.
"Key Skills" includes "Customer Relations, Cashier, Retail, Operations, Customer Service". Could list.
We need headings: Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). But we can use other headings? The instruction says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It implies we should use those exact headings when applicable, but we can also use other headings? It says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely they want us to use those headings if we have those sections. Our content doesn't exactly match those but we can map: "Who We Are" could be About the role? Not exactly. "Your Store Journey Starts Here" maybe About the role? Could use "About the role". "What You Will Work On" could be Responsibilities. "Who You Will Work With" maybe not needed. "What You Bring" could be Requirements/Qualifications. "Work Style & Physical Requirements" maybe Requirements. "Key Skills" could be Skills.
We need to decide headings to use. The instruction: "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It suggests we should use those headings when we have those sections. It doesn't forbid other headings, but better to map to those.
Thus we could produce:
About the role
with content from "Who We Are" and "Your Store Journey Starts Here" maybe combined.
Responsibilities
with "What You Will Work On" and "Who You Will Work With".
Requirements
with "What You Bring" and "Work Style & Physical Requirements".
Skills
with "Key Skills".
We must not create empty sections.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So for Responsibilities we could list duties. For Requirements we could list items. For Skills we could list.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include all details from original text.
Let's extract content.

Now we need to output HTML fragment only.
We'll structure:
About the role
... combined paragraphs ...
Responsibilities
- ... each duty sentence ...
We could split responsibilities into two paragraphs: what you will work on and who you will work with. Could combine into list items.
Better to make two sections? But instruction says use list for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. The responsibilities are duties, so list.
Thus create
with items covering all duty sentences.
We need to preserve all substantive information, so we must not lose any detail.
Let's list duty sentences:
From What You Will Work On:
1. Help customers enjoy more sports and outdoor activities by making their store visits during their busiest season easier, friendlier, and more productive.
2. Support customers in sales, cashier, merchandising, and receiving work, giving you a broad view of how the store operates.
3. Your efforts influence service, sales, store readiness, and the overall customer experience.
4. Move where the store and its customers need support most, whether that means helping someone find the right product, completing checkout transactions, preparing merchandise for the sales floor, or keeping pricing and signage accurate.
