We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes sections: maybe "About the role" (description), "Requirements", "Responsibilities", "Position Details" (maybe we can treat as "Schedule" and "Pay" and "Benefits" if present). The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences. Thus we need to extract content. Let's parse the posting: - Intro: "Latitude is seeking an experienced Washington-barred family law attorney to work with a well-established and respected law firm in Washington State on a completely remote basis. The law firm specializes in Family and Divorce, Wills and Estates, Criminal Law, Guardianship, Asset Protection Planning and Elder Law. The best candidate will be an enthusiastic professional with a strong background in family law and/or estate planning. This is a remote position (with preference for attorneys living in Washington state)." That's prose about the role. Could be "About the role". We'll put

    About the role

    then

    with that content. - Then "Requirements for the Washington-Barred Family Law Attorney (Remote and Contract):" followed by bullet list: 5+ years of experience working on family law and/or estate planning matters Capable of working independently Excellent communication, speaking, and interpersonal skills Strong analytical, research, and writing skills Excellent academic credentials from an accredited law school.

Conduct thorough legal research and analysis to support case strategies and provide sound legal advice. Manage a caseload from initial consultation to resolution, including drafting and reviewing legal documents, preparing legal arguments, making court appearances and negotiating settlements.

      then
      • . - Then "Position Details for the Washington-Barred Family Law Attorney (Remote and Contract):" includes: Type of Role: Contract Schedule: Flexible (Full-Time or Part-Time) Location: Fully Remote (preference for residing in Washington state) We have Schedule and maybe Type of Role and Location. The instruction says use headings like Schedule, Pay, Benefits. We have Schedule info. We could put

        Schedule

        with

        Flexible (Full-Time or Part-Time)

        . Also we could include Location maybe as part of About the role? But we already have location in About the role? Actually we mentioned remote and preference for Washington. Could incorporate into About the role. But we could also add a separate section for Location? Not in list of headings but we could embed in About the role. The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we can incorporate location into About the role paragraph. We have Pay: "Compensation Pay: The annualized pay for this position ranges from $150,000 to $200,000 on a full-time basis. Pay for contract engagements is based on multiple factors including but not limited to work experience, qualifications, credentials, location, market supply/demand, and the candidate’s preference (each candidate’s pay rate affects the client bill rate which can affect the candidate’s competitiveness for the position)." Thus we have Pay section with specifics. So we should include

        Pay

        with

        containing that. Benefits: "Benefits: In addition to pay, all Latitude Attorneys and other legal professionals working on contract engagements receive complimentary professional liability insurance coverage. All Latitude employees (including those on contract engagements) are also eligible for full benefits when working 20+ hours per week, including group medical, dental, and vision insurance, and complimentary group life, LTD and AD&D insurance. A qualified 401k plan is also available. Benefits-eligible Latitude Attorneys also receive a CLE and Professional Expense stipend." Thus we have Benefits section. We also have some other paragraphs: "Confidentiality Latitude will not disclose your identity or propose you to prospective clients without your prior consent. Candidates selected for further consideration will be contacted." That's maybe boilerplate but it's not EEO etc. It's about confidentiality. Should we keep? It's substantive? It's not boilerplate like EEO. It's a statement about confidentiality. Could keep as a short paragraph maybe under About the role? But we might treat as separate? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. This confidentiality statement is not exactly those categories; it's a policy statement. Might be okay to keep. However it's near the end before "About Latitude". Might be considered part of the posting but not essential. The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." So we should keep it. Could place it as a

        after Benefits maybe. Then "About Latitude" paragraph describing the company. That's also substantive but maybe not required? It's about the company. Could be considered "About the company" but not in the list of headings. Could we include as a section? The instruction only gave examples of headings but didn't forbid others. It said use

        for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It didn't say we cannot use other headings, but we should follow the pattern. Probably better to keep only those sections that have content. About Latitude is descriptive of the company; could be considered "About the role"? Not exactly. Might be okay to include as a separate section with heading "About Latitude". But the instruction didn't list that as example but didn't forbid. However they said "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Adding About Latitude adds another section. Might be okay but could be considered thin? It's a few paragraphs. Might be okay. But we also have "Latitude Engagements" etc. That's more marketing fluff. Could be considered boilerplate? It's describing Latitude's engagements. Might be considered not essential to the job. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. This is not exactly those but could be considered promotional. However it's substantive about the company. Might be okay to keep but could be considered fluff. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep all substantive info, not just job-specific. So we should keep the About Latitude and Latitude Engagements paragraphs. But we need to avoid duplication. There's some duplicated lines? Not seeing. Thus final HTML will have sections: About the role, Requirements, Responsibilities, Pay, Benefits, Schedule (maybe), About Latitude (maybe), Latitude Engagements (maybe). However we need to avoid too many thin sections. Could combine About Latitude and Latitude Engagements into one "About Latitude" section with multiple paragraphs. Let's craft:

        Schedule

        Flexible (Full-Time or Part-Time)

        We could also include Location maybe in About the role already mentions remote and preference for Washington. That's fine. Now we need to include the confidentiality statement and About Latitude etc. Let's see if we can incorporate them into About the role or a separate section like "About Latitude". The confidentiality statement: "Latitude will not disclose your identity or propose you to prospective clients without your prior consent. Candidates selected for
