We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate (EEO, legal, etc). Must not invent or summarize away detail. Must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Must only include sections when posting has real specific content.
We need to parse the posting.
Content:
- Who We Are: description of UC Irvine, HR enterprise, vision. This is "About the role"? Actually "Who We Are" is about the organization. Could be placed under a section like "About the role" or maybe "About UCI". The instruction says use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can use "About the role" for description of the role and organization? Probably "About the role" could include the description of the role and the organization. But we have "Your Role on the Team" which describes the role. So we can put that under "About the role". Also "Who We Are" could be part of that.
- Responsibilities: list of duties under "Your Role on the Team". Many bullet-like sentences. We need to extract them as list items under

- Responsibilities: list of duties under "Your Role on the Team". Many bullet-like sentences. We need to extract them as list items under - . Must preserve all substantive info.
- Requirements: The "Required What It Takes to be Successful" section includes a bunch of bullet-like statements (skills, knowledge). Also "Preferred Juris Doctorate (J.D.)". Also "Special Conditions" maybe part of Requirements? Could be separate but we can include under Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction says we can have sections like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide.
We have "Required What It Takes to be Successful" which includes many statements: Possesses expert analytical skills..., Demonstrates expert knowledge..., Exhibits expert knowledge..., In-depth knowledge..., Demonstrates the expert level skills..., Possesses highly developed skills..., Demonstrated success..., Demonstrated ability..., Demonstrates skills..., Has highly developed written..., Has expert knowledge..., Bachelor's degree..., 7-10 years of experience...
Then "Preferred Juris Doctorate (J.D.)". Then "Special Conditions": This position may be required to report at different work sites..., The incumbent must be able to provide their own means of transportation...
Then "Total Rewards": mentions benefits, salary range.
Then "Conditions Of Employment": list of conditions (Background Check etc). That's likely not a section we need to include? It's substantive but maybe could be under "Requirements" or separate? The instruction says include a section ONLY when posting has real specific content for it. Conditions of employment is specific content. Could be a section like "Requirements" or maybe "Qualifications". But we already have Requirements. Could treat Conditions of Employment as part of Requirements (like eligibility). However we have separate headings list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Conditions of employment could be under Requirements (like eligibility). But we also have "Pay" and "Benefits" separate. The posting includes salary range and benefits description. So we should have Pay and Benefits sections.
Schedule: not mentioned. So we should not include Schedule.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe combine qualifications/skills), Benefits, Pay.
We need to decide what goes where.
We could have:
About the role
... description of UCI and HR enterprise and role overview...
Responsibilities
- ... each duty ...
Requirements
- ... expert analytical skills ...
... etc including education, experience, preferred JD, special conditions (work sites, transportation). Also maybe conditions of employment? Could be separate but we can include as part of Requirements.
But we also have "Skills" as a possible section. Could separate skills from requirements. However the posting lumps skills and knowledge together. Might be okay to put all under Requirements.
Benefits: description of benefits (medical insurance, sick/vacation, retirement savings, discounts/perks). Also mention "Total Rewards In addition to the salary range listed below, we offer a wealth of benefits..."
Pay: salary range $123,000.00- $209,100.00 (Annual).
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, Closing Statement, etc. Also remove "Conditions Of Employment" maybe? But it's substantive; but we could incorporate into Requirements as eligibility criteria. However the instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we must include the conditions of employment details somewhere. If we omit them, we lose substantive info. So we need to include them. Where? Could be a separate section like "Requirements" or "Qualifications". Since we have headings list, we could add a section "Requirements" and include those conditions as list items. That seems appropriate.
Thus we will include Conditions of Employment items under Requirements.
We must not include the "Closing Statement" EEO etc. Also remove "Consideration for Work Authorization Sponsorship" maybe? That's also substantive about work authorization. It says "Must be able to provide proof of work authorization". That's also a condition. Could be included under Requirements as well.
We must not include the "https://hr.uci.edu/" links? Probably we can keep them as part of description but not as separate headings. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep the URLs as part of paragraphs.
We must not include the "Who We Are" heading as a heading; we will embed that content in About the role paragraph.
Now we need to extract the exact sentences.
Let's copy the relevant parts.
