But we cannot use tags because only allowed tags are p, h4, ul, li. However the rule says "Use for introductory paragraphs and general text", "Use
for section headers", "Use - for list items". It doesn't explicitly forbid other tags, but says "No CSS classes, no inline styles, no s, no
tags". It doesn't forbid . However earlier instruction: "Return ONLY the cleaned job text. Do not add any commentary, headers like ... or markdown formatting." The earlier part about formatting as clean semantic HTML said use those tags. It didn't say we cannot use other tags, but to be safe we should stick to allowed tags. However the equal opportunity paragraph contains a link. If we strip the we lose the URL. But we must preserve all original content word-for-word. The URL is part of content. If we remove the tags, we lose the link but the text "http://www.fhi360.org/careers/eeo" remains? Actually the original: equal opportunity employer. The visible text is "equal opportunity employer". The URL is in href attribute, not visible. If we strip the tag, we lose the URL but the visible text remains. The requirement to preserve all original content word-for-word likely refers to visible text, not markup. But ambiguous. Safer to keep the tag? But the instruction earlier said use only those tags. However later instruction says "Return ONLY the cleaned job text. Do not add any commentary, headers like ... or markdown formatting." That was from the first prompt. The second prompt says "You receive a plain-text job description. Your ONLY job is to format it
for each heading like "ABOUT FHI 360:", "Position Summary", "Accountabilities:", "Technical Requirements:", "Project Design Implementation:", "Business Development and Client/Funder Support:", "Applied Knowledge & Skills:", "Problem Solving & Impact:", "Supervision Given/Received:", "Education:", "Experience:", "Typical Physical Demands:", "Technology to be Used:", "Travel Requirements:", then the salary paragraph maybe as
