Job Description
for paragraphs,
for section headers, - for list items. No CSS classes, no inline styles, no , no
. Must preserve all original content word-for-word, no addition, removal, summarizing, rephrasing. So we need to strip the style tags and keep text.
We have raw HTML with many text
. We need to extract the text content and wrap appropriately.
We need to identify sections: The text includes:
- "Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, and the vacancy may close once a suitable candidate has been identified."
- "Operations Officer"
- "Supervisor: Project Director"
- "Location: Nairobi"
- "Background:" (bold)
- Then paragraphs about WUSC.
- "Role Description:" (bold)
- Paragraph about role.
- "Key Responsibilities" (bold)
- Then numbered items with bold headings: "1. Logistics Management:" etc. Each has a list items.
- Then "2. Operational Procurement Support"
- etc.
- Then "Required Competencies"
- Then "Qualifications & Experience"
- Then "Other requirements:"
- Then paragraphs about WUSC activities, criminal record check.
We need to preserve all content word-for-word, but we need to format using semantic HTML: headings for section headers. Which headings? The instructions: Use for section headers (e.g. Responsibilities, Qualifications, Requirements, Education, Experience, Skills, How to Apply, Key Duties, About the Role). So we need to treat "Background:", "Role Description:", "Key Responsibilities", "Required Competencies", "Qualifications & Experience", "Other requirements:" as section headers? Possibly also "Applications will be reviewed..." maybe not a header but a paragraph.
We need to decide: The text includes bold markers for section headers. We should convert those bolded lines into tags, preserving the text exactly (including colon). For example:
Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, and the vacancy may close once a suitable candidate has been identified.
That's not a section header but a statement; we should keep as .
Similarly "Operations Officer" is bold; maybe that's job title; could be considered a header? Not in list but we could treat as
maybe? But instructions say use for section headers like Responsibilities etc. Job title maybe not a section header; but we could still treat as
with bold? However we cannot keep bold tags; we must strip styling. So we just output plain text inside
. The job title line: "Operations Officer". Should be a paragraph.
"Supervisor: Project Director" and "Location: Nairobi" also paragraphs.
Then "Background:" bold line -> treat as
Background:
Then the following paragraphs about WUSC: keep as .
Then "Role Description:" ->
Role Description:
Then paragraph.
Then "Key Responsibilities" -> Key Responsibilities
Then the numbered items: each numbered item heading is bold like "1. Logistics Management:" etc. Should those be ? Possibly they are subheadings under responsibilities. But instructions only mention using for section headers; we could treat each numbered item as as well, but then the list items under them would be - . However the original already has
- for each item's details. The numbered headings are outside the
. In the raw HTML, they are 1. Logistics Management:
then with items. So we should convert that heading to and keep the after.
Similarly for each numbered section.
Then "Required Competencies" -> Required Competencies
Then its .
Then "Qualifications & Experience" -> Qualifications & Experience
Then its .
Then "Other requirements:" -> Other requirements:
Then its (single item).
Then paragraphs after that: "WUSC’s activities seek to balance inequities..." and "Successful applicants will be required to undertake an enhanced criminal record check where appropriate." These should be .
We must preserve all content word-for-word, including punctuation, spaces, etc. Need to ensure we don't lose any text.
We must not add any extra text. Must not add markdown fences.
We must output only HTML.
Let's extract each piece exactly.
I'll go through the raw text and copy the inner text of each span.
First block:
Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, and the vacancy may close once a suitable candidate has been identified.
Text: Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, and the vacancy may close once a suitable candidate has been identified.
Second:
Operations Officer
There's a non-breaking space after. The text includes "Operations Officer" plus a space? The second span is a space. So combined: "Operations Officer " (with trailing space). We should preserve exactly? Probably we should keep "Operations Officer". The space may be irrelevant. Safer to keep "Operations Officer". We'll trim? The instruction: preserve ALL original content word-for-word. So we should keep the space? The second span is a non-breaking space ( ). That is a character. So the combined text is "Operations Officer" followed by a non-breaking space. In output we can just put a regular space; but to be precise we could keep a space. I'll output "Operations Officer". Probably fine.
Third:
Supervisor: Project Director
Text: Supervisor: Project Director
Fourth:
Location: Nairobi
Text: Location: Nairobi
Fifth:
Background:
Text: Background: (with a non-breaking space after colon). We'll output "Background:" as heading.

Second paragraph:

WUSC offers a dynamic international work environment with a diverse intercultural workforce. We offer employees exciting opportunities to apply their skills and gain experience all while making a difference for youth around the world. Employees at WUSC work hard to create lasting change in the communities they serve.
Note there is a non-breaking space before "Employees". We'll keep as space.
We need to combine these two paragraphs as separate tags.

Heading: Role Description:
Eighth paragraph:
