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. - Job is to 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/organization, 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, no headers like "Here is the cleaned version", no markdown. Wait, the actual prompt I received has TWO parts: - First part: "You are a job listing editor... Return ONLY the cleaned job text." - Second part: "You receive a plain-text job description. Your ONLY job is to format it as clean semantic HTML." with specific HTML rules. - Then it gives a job description text. I need to figure out which set of instructions to follow. The very first block says: "You are a job listing editor... Return ONLY the cleaned job text. Do not add any commentary, headers like "Here is the cleaned version", or markdown formatting. Just the clean job listing text." Then the second block says: "You receive a plain-text job description. Your ONLY job is to format it as clean semantic HTML." with HTML tags rules, "Preserve ALL original content word-for-word... Return ONLY the HTML. No markdown fences, no explanation, no preamble." The user message combines both? Actually, looking carefully, the user message starts with "You are a job listing editor..." and then has "REMOVE all of the following..." and "KEEP and STRUCTURE..." and "Return ONLY the cleaned job text." That's the first set of instructions. Then it says "You receive a plain-text job description. Your ONLY job is to format it as clean semantic HTML." with HTML rules. And then provides the job description text. It seems like there are two separate instructions or maybe the user wants me to do the HTML formatting version. But the very first part says "Return ONLY the cleaned job text." and the second says "Return ONLY the HTML. No markdown fences, no explanation, no preamble." Let me read the entire prompt again carefully. Prompt: "You are a job listing editor. You receive raw scraped text from a job website. Your job is to extract ONLY the actual job information and return it in a clean, readable format. REMOVE all of the following: - Social sharing text (Share, Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp, Telegram, etc.) - Author bylines (by AuthorName, written by, posted by) - "You may also like" / related posts sections - Navigation text (Previous, Next, Read more, Back to) - Comments sections - Advertisements or promotions - Cookie/subscription notices - Duplicate text (if the title appears multiple times, keep it once) - Category labels that aren't part of the job (e.g., "Internships" as a standalone line) - Stray numbers or formatting artifacts 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 Return ONLY the cleaned job text. Do not add any commentary, headers like "Here is the cleaned version", or markdown formatting. Just the clean job listing text. --- You receive a plain-text job description. Your ONLY job is to format it as clean semantic HTML. 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. Job description: [the long text]" Okay, so there are two distinct tasks described, but they're in the same prompt. The user might be testing which one I follow, or maybe they want me to do the HTML formatting since the job description is provided right after the HTML rules. The first part doesn't have a job description to process, it just gives general instructions. The second part provides a specific job description and asks to format it as clean semantic HTML. Given that the job description is explicitly provided, and the HTML formatting rules are detailed, I think the actual task is to take the provided job description text and format it as clean semantic HTML according to the rules. The first part might be a general preamble or context, but the concrete task is the HTML formatting. Let me re-read the very beginning: "You are a job listing editor. You receive raw scraped text from a job website. Your job is to extract ONLY the actual job information and return it in a clean, readable format." Then it lists remove/keep. Then "Return ONLY the cleaned job text." Then immediately after that block, there's another block starting "You receive a plain-text job description. Your ONLY job is to format it as clean semantic HTML." with rules and the job description. It's possible the user pasted two different system prompts or task descriptions. But the second one has the actual input data. I should probably follow the second one, as it's the one with the actual text to process. However, the first one says "Return ONLY the cleaned job text." and the second says "Return ONLY the HTML. No markdown fences, no explanation, no preamble." I need to decide: should I output just cleaned plain text, or HTML? The prompt has both. Maybe I should output the HTML version since the job description is provided and the HTML rules are specific. But the first instruction says "Return ONLY the cleaned job text. Do not add any commentary... Just the clean job listing text." No HTML mentioned there. Let me look at the structure: The user message might be a single combined prompt where I need to do both? Or maybe the first part is the persona/instructions, and the second part is the actual task. The second part starts with "You receive a plain-text job description. Your ONLY job is to format it as clean semantic HTML." This seems like the actual command, and the first part might be context or a different version. Given the ambiguity, I should probably address the concrete task: format the provided job description as clean semantic HTML, following the rules. The first set of rules about removing/keeping info is about extracting from raw scraped text, but the second set is about formatting into HTML. Since the job description is already provided and seems to be the raw text, and the HTML rules are given, I'll format it as HTML. But wait: The first part says "REMOVE all of the following: ..." and the text provided has things like `

    We provide meaningful careers...

    `, social sharing? Let check the text for things to remove. The text has: `

    We provide meaningful careers that connect people with purpose.

    `, empty paragraphs, `

    We are united by a common purpose...

    `, `

    Netcare invites you to be part of our journey.

    `, then the job content. It has `

    ` etc. It has section headers like `KEY WORK OUTPUT AND ACCOUNTABILITIES`, `CONSISTENCY OF CARE`, etc. It has `SKILLS PROFILE`, `EDUCATION`, `WORK EXPERIENCE`, `KNOWLEDGE`, `NETCARE VALUES AND BEHAVIOURS`, `Netcare Values`, `The Netcare Way`, and a final paragraph `Join the team committed to providing the best and safest health and care.` The HTML rules say: "Use

    for introductory paragraphs and general text", "Use

    for section headers", "Use
    • for list items", "No CSS classes, no inline styles, no
      s, no
      tags", "Preserve ALL original content word-for-word", "If text has no clear sections, just wrap paragraphs in

      tags", "Return ONLY the HTML. No markdown fences, no explanation, no preamble." Important: "Preserve ALL original content word-for-word — do not add, remove, summarise, or rephrase". But the first part of the prompt says to remove social sharing, bylines, etc. The provided text doesn't seem to have those, or maybe it does have some stray stuff. Let check the text for things to remove per first instruction: Social sharing text? Not obvious. Author bylines? Not present. "You may also like"? No. Navigation? No. Comments? No. Ads/promotions? No. Cookie/subscription notices? No. Duplicate text? Maybe some repetition. Category labels? No. Stray numbers/formatting artifacts? There are `

      ` and inline styles, which the HTML rules say "No inline styles". Also `
      ` tags? There are `

      ` in the text? Actually there's `

      ` and `

      `. The HTML rules say: "No CSS classes, no inline styles, no
      s, no
      tags". So I need to strip inline styles and
      tags. Also preserve content word-for-word but remove those tags. The first instruction says "Return ONLY the cleaned job text." The second says "Return ONLY the HTML." Since the second has the actual job description and specific HTML rules, I'll assume the task is to output HTML. Let me parse the job description text and convert it to HTML per rules. Rules recap: -

      for introductory paragraphs and general text -

      for section headers (e.g. Responsibilities, Qualifications, Requirements, Education, Experience, Skills, How to Apply, Key Duties, About the Role) -
      • 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. I need to output HTML only. No markdown fences (so no ```html), no explanation, just the HTML. Let's process the text section by section, converting to HTML, removing inline styles and
        tags, keeping content word-for-word. First, let's list the raw text parts: 1. `
