We need to output HTML fragment with headings for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content.
From posting:
Job Description: includes overview and responsibilities. So we can have "About the role" maybe summarizing the description? The description includes responsibilities. Could treat "About the role" as a short paragraph summarizing the role (the first paragraph). Then "Responsibilities" as bullet list of duties.
"Requirements" maybe includes education/experience: BS/BA, 3 years supervisor, 5 years histotechnologist, certification ASCP eligible, obtain within 6 months.
"Qualifications" maybe similar? Might combine. But we need separate sections only if content. Could put "Requirements" for education/experience, and "Qualifications" for certification? Or we could put "Skills" for technical skills (gross analysis, histology, cytology, digital pathology, QC, equipment selection, scheduling, training). "Benefits", "Pay", "Schedule" not mentioned, so omit.
Also "About Us" could be a section maybe "About the organization"? Not in list headings; we have only those headings. Could put "About Us" as a paragraph maybe under "About the role"? But instructions: use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should stick to those. Could include "About the role" containing the initial description and maybe About Us? But better to keep About Us as a paragraph under "About the role"? Might be okay.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO etc. Not present.
We need to preserve all substantive information.
Let's extract:
