We need to omit application instructions (Special Instructions To Applicants) as per rule: remove application instructions. So we should not include that paragraph.

We must preserve all substantive information; but we are allowed to remove application instructions. So we drop that section.
We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. So we will have:
- About the role (position summary)
- Responsibilities (essential functions + teaching duties)
- Requirements (maybe Pre-Requisite Qualifications)
- Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications) maybe combine? But we have both pre-req and preferred; could put under Requirements and Qualifications separately. The instruction: use headings for Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can put pre-req under Requirements, preferred under Qualifications. Skills we can extract from responsibilities (project management, estimating, scheduling, concrete mixture design, etc.) plus pedagogy/tools etc. We'll put under Skills.
Pay: we have compensation range and note base pay only. So include Pay section.
Schedule: Flsa Exempt Time Type Full time Pay Rate Salary => indicates Full time. So schedule: Full time.

We must not include headings with filler. So we will output:
