Job Description

Here's a thinking process: 1. **Analyze User Input:** - User is acting as a job listing editor. - I receive raw scraped text from a job website. - My job: extract ONLY actual job information, return clean, readable format. - MUST REMOVE: social sharing, author bylines, "you may also like", navigation, comments, ads/promotions, cookie/subscription notices, duplicate text, category labels not part of job, stray numbers/formatting artifacts. - MUST KEEP AND STRUCTURE: job title, company/org, location, job description/responsibilities, requirements/qualifications, how to apply, salary (if mentioned), deadline/closing date, job ID/reference number, contract type/level. - Return ONLY the cleaned job text. No commentary, headers like "Here is the cleaned version", or markdown formatting. Just the clean job listing text. Wait, the actual prompt I'm given is a bit different. Let re-read carefully. The user says: "You receive a plain-text job description. Your ONLY job is to format it as clean semantic HTML." Then there are rules: - Use

for introductory paragraphs and general text - Use

for section headers (e.g. Responsibilities, Qualifications, Requirements, Education, Experience, Skills, How to Apply, Key Duties, About the Role) - Use
  • for list items (duties, requirements, qualifications, skills) - No CSS classes, no inline styles, no
    s, no
    tags - Preserve ALL original content word-for-word — do not add, remove, summarise, or rephrase - If text has no clear sections, just wrap paragraphs in

    tags - Return ONLY the HTML. No markdown fences, no explanation, no preamble. Then they provide a job description text. I need to convert that text into clean semantic HTML following the rules. Let's look at the removal rules from the first part of the prompt, but the actual task is the HTML formatting task. The first part describes the editor role, but the specific instruction for this turn is: "You receive a plain-text job description. Your ONLY job is to format it as clean semantic HTML." with the listed rules. The removal rules might be context from the system prompt, but the actual input is the job description text, and I need to output HTML. Let me re-read carefully: The user message starts with "You are a job listing editor..." but then says "You receive a plain-text job description. Your ONLY job is to format it as clean semantic HTML." This seems like a combined prompt. I need to follow the HTML formatting rules, and also presumably remove the junk mentioned earlier (social sharing, bylines, etc.), but the rules for this specific task are the HTML ones. However, the "Preserve ALL original content word-for-word" is strong. I need to parse the input text, remove anything that's not job content (like the "With 75 years of experience..." intro might be part of the job description, but some parts might be generic org info). Actually, the input text seems to be a job listing for "Country Director WV Burkina Faso". It has a lot of content. Let me identify the structure and what to keep/remove based on the combined instructions. The prompt says: "REMOVE all of the following: - Social sharing text... - Author bylines... - "You may also like"... - Navigation text... - Comments sections... - Advertisements or promotions... - Cookie/subscription notices... - Duplicate text... - Category labels... - Stray numbers or formatting artifacts" And: "KEEP and STRUCTURE: - Job title - Company/Organisation name - Location - Job description and responsibilities - Requirements/qualifications - How to apply / application instructions - Salary (if mentioned) - Deadline / closing date - Job ID / reference number - Contract type / level" Then the HTML formatting rules: use

    ,

    ,
    • , no classes/styles/div/br, preserve ALL original content word-for-word, no add/remove/summarize/rephrase, if no clear sections just wrap in

      , return ONLY HTML no markdown fences etc. This is tricky: "Preserve ALL original content word-for-word — do not add, remove, summarise, or rephrase" but also "REMOVE all of the following: ..." which includes duplicate text, stray numbers, etc. There's a conflict. I need to interpret this in context. Usually, these prompts want me to extract the job info from the scraped text, remove the boilerplate/junk, and format the remaining job-relevant text into HTML. The "preserve all original content word-for-word" likely applies to the extracted job content, not the junk. But it's ambiguous. Let me look at the actual input text. It starts with "With 75 years of experience..." that's likely org intro. Then "Come join our 31,000+ staff..." Then "Employee Contract Type: Local - Fixed Term Employee (Fixed Term)" Then "Job Description:" then a long paragraph about World Vision, Burkina Faso, etc. Then "The Country Director WV Burkina Faso will strategically lead..." Then responsibilities, qualifications, bilingual list in French, etc. Then "Applicant Types Accepted: Local Applicants Only" I need to extract job title, company, location, description, responsibilities, requirements, how to apply, contract type, etc. But the instruction says "Preserve ALL original content word-for-word — do not add, remove, summarise, or rephrase". This might mean: don't paraphrase the job description text, just keep it as-is but format into HTML. The removal list might be for the overall editor role, but for this specific task, the primary job is HTML formatting preserving content. However, the removal list includes things like "Social sharing text", "Author bylines", etc., which aren't really in the provided text. The provided text seems to be the job description body, maybe already stripped of some of those, but it has things like "

      " tags, "", "", "", "", inline styles, etc. The HTML formatting rules say: "No CSS classes, no inline styles, no
      s, no
      tags". So I need to strip inline styles,
      ,
      , but preserve content. Also "If text has no clear sections, just wrap paragraphs in

      tags". Let me parse the input text and decide what to keep. The text is already mostly in HTML-like tags (

      , , , , ,

        ,
      • ). I need to output clean semantic HTML using only

        ,

        ,
        • . No inline styles. So I'll need to strip the existing tags and rebuild using only allowed tags, preserving text content word-for-word. But "Preserve ALL original content word-for-word" means I can't remove or change any text, but I can change the markup tags as long as the text content is preserved exactly. The rules say: "Use

          for introductory paragraphs and general text", "Use

          for section headers", "Use
          • for list items". So I need to identify sections and wrap accordingly. Let's break down the input text by lines/paragraphs, identify headers, lists, and general text. Input text (I'll copy and parse mentally): ```

            With 75 years of experience, our focus is on helping the most vulnerable children overcome poverty and experience fullness of life. We help children of all backgrounds, even in the most dangerous places, inspired by our Christian faith.
