We need to remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. However, we need to preserve substantive info. The "Special Instructions To Applicants" includes application instructions (what to submit). The instruction says: "Remove ... application instructions." So we should omit the list of required application materials? The instruction says: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should not include the application instructions (the list of what to submit). However, we need to preserve all substantive information; but application instructions are considered not substantive? Likely they want to exclude the "how to apply" details. So we should omit the Special Instructions To Applicants section (the list). But we might keep the contact email for further information? That's also part of application instructions. Probably best to omit that entire block. We also need to remove duplicated lines. There's duplicated "Apply now" etc. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. So we can have sections like About the role (maybe from description), Responsibilities (maybe not explicit), Requirements/Qualifications (minimum qualifications), Skills (maybe experience with data analytics etc), Benefits (total rewards package), Pay (salary range), Schedule (maybe not given). We should not create Schedule if not specified. We need to decide which sections to include based on content. Let's extract: About the role: Could be the job description summary: The Department of Accounting invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor position to begin Fall 2027.

Experience with data analytics, big data, text analysis, machine learning, and AI especially attractive. Bentley committed to teacher-scholar model where teaching, scholarship, and service excellence are both expected and highly valued.

That's a lot of prose; we can put in

. Responsibilities: Not explicitly listed; maybe teaching, research, service. But we might not have explicit responsibilities list. Could infer but better not to invent. So maybe skip Responsibilities if not explicit. Requirements: Minimum qualifications: doctoral degree in Accounting, highly committed to excellence in teaching, demonstrate strong potential for high-quality scholarly research and publication. Preferred qualifications: Experience with data analytics, big data, text analysis, machine learning, and AI especially attractive. We could combine Requirements and Preferred into a Qualifications section. Skills: Could list data analytics, big data, text analysis, machine learning, AI. Benefits: total rewards package includes competitive compensation, robust benefits, career development and opportunities, generous paid time off, workplace flexibility, positive engaging employee experience. Also support for summer research, teaching, course development, travel to professional meetings. Could be considered benefits. Pay: Salary range $168,171 - $227,526. Schedule: Not specified (full time). Could we include Schedule? The posting says Time Type: Full time. That's schedule info. So we could include Schedule section with "Full time". That's specific. We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual salary range. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not include Job ID etc. We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. The diversity statement is EEO-like; we should remove it as boilerplate? The instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. Diversity statement is similar to EEO; likely should be removed. So we omit the DIVERSITY STATEMENT block. We also need to remove duplicated lines. Now produce HTML fragment with headings

for each section we include. Potential sections: About the role, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could also include Responsibilities if we can extract from description: teaching, scholarship, service. But not explicit list. Safer to omit. We need to preserve all substantive information; if we omit Responsibilities, we might lose some info about teaching, research, service expectations. But that is covered in About the role. So it's okay. Now craft content. About the role: combine the description summary into a paragraph or multiple paragraphs. Use

for prose. Qualifications: Could be a

• for minimum qualifications and preferred qualifications. But we need to preserve all substantive info. Let's list: - Must hold a doctoral degree (Ph.D./D.B.A.) in Accounting. - Must be highly committed to excellence in teaching. - Must demonstrate strong potential for high-quality scholarly research and publication. - Preferred: Experience with data analytics, big data, text analysis, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. We could separate Minimum Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications as subheadings? But we only allowed headings h3 for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can have a Qualifications section with both minimum and preferred as list items, maybe differentiate with text. Skills: Could list data analytics, big data, text analysis, machine learning, artificial intelligence as a list. Benefits: list items: competitive compensation, robust benefits, career development and opportunities, generous paid time off, workplace flexibility, positive engaging employee experience, support for summer research, teaching, course development, travel to professional meetings. Pay: Salary range $168,171 - $227,526 for Assistant Professor. Schedule: Full time. Now ensure we don't include any boilerplate like "Closing date Oct 11, 2026" maybe that's substantive? It's a date; but it's not in the allowed headings; we could embed in About the role as a note? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should include the closing date somewhere. Where can we put it? Not a heading; we could put in a

  within About the role or maybe a separate section like "Important Dates" but not allowed headings. We could add a
