We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes summary, responsibilities, requirements, qualifications, skills, benefits, pay, schedule. We need to include sections only if posting has real specific content.
We have location info, role type full-time, salary range, benefits described. Also summary (About the role). Responsibilities listed. Requirements: education, basic requirements (experience, etc). Skills: many listed. Benefits: health, vision, dental, 401k, paid time away, volunteer days, etc. Pay: salary range. Schedule: Osaic has returned to the office 4 days weekly and is not considering remote applicants at this time. That's schedule info (4 days in office). So we can include Schedule section.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Use for each section heading.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, eligibility, etc. Remove those.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep details like location list, salary range, benefits list, responsibilities list, requirements list, etc.
We must not include duplicated lines.
We need to format responsibilities as
for each section heading.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, eligibility, etc. Remove those.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep details like location list, salary range, benefits list, responsibilities list, requirements list, etc.
We must not include duplicated lines.
We need to format responsibilities as - . Same for requirements, qualifications, skills, benefits.
We need to decide sections: About the role (summary), Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe combine education and basic requirements?), Qualifications (maybe same as requirements?), Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
But we must avoid thin sections. Could combine Education and Basic Requirements into Requirements. Skills separate.
We need to ensure we don't create sections with placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". We have actual content.
Let's extract content.
Location list: Scottsdale, Atlanta, La Vista, Oakdale, St. Petersburg addresses. Could be a short paragraph.
Role Type: Full-time.
Salary: $250,000 - $275,000 per year + annual performance-based bonus. Additional note about compensation determined individually.
Benefits: health, vision, dental insurance, 401k, paid time away, volunteer days and much more. Also reference to careers page for more details (but we should remove application instructions and external links? The instruction: remove application instructions. The careers page link is not exactly application instruction but maybe considered navigation? Safer to omit the link and just keep benefits list.

That's a lot; we can keep as list.
Skills: many overlapping with requirements; but we could treat Skills as separate section listing e.g., strong leadership, partnership, communications, presentation, relationship management, Agile, DevOps, modernize software design, etc. However to avoid duplication, maybe we just have Requirements section covering education, basic requirements, and skills. But the instruction says use sections for Skills if posting has real specific content. It does have skills list embedded in responsibilities and requirements. Could create Skills section extracting distinct skill items: strong leadership, partnership, communications, presentation skills, relationship management, Agile methodologies, DevOps, modernize software design, development processes, QA practices, etc. But many are already in requirements. To avoid duplication, maybe we just have one Requirements section that includes education, basic requirements, and skills. But the instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have: About the role (summary), Responsibilities, Requirements (including education, basic requirements, skills), Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
That seems reasonable.
We need to include location info maybe in About the role or a separate meta paragraph. Could add a short paragraph after summary: "Locations: Scottsdale, AZ; Atlanta, GA; La Vista, NE; Oakdale, MN; St. Petersburg, FL. Role type: Full-time. Osaic has returned to the office 4 days weekly and is not considering remote applicants at this time." But schedule already covered. We could put location in About the role paragraph.
We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, eligibility, etc.
