Audiologist
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include only sections that have real specific content. The posting includes job summary, essential functions (list), experience, required knowledge/skills/abilities, licenses/certifications, patient care responsibility, required for all jobs (boilerplate). We need to remove boilerplate like EEO, equal opportunity, etc. Also remove navigation, cookie, legal, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove the Instagram link? It's not boilerplate but maybe considered navigation? It's a link to Instagram; it's not essential job content but maybe we keep? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The Instagram link is not navigation? It's a link to Instagram for a closer look at what it's like to work there; could be considered navigation but it's not boilerplate. However it's not essential job info; but we can keep as part of "About the role"? Might be considered promotional. Safer to drop it? The instruction says remove navigation; that link is navigation. So drop.
We need to preserve all substantive information: job summary, essential functions (list), experience, required knowledge/skills/abilities, licenses/certifications, patient care responsibility. Also maybe "Required for All Jobs" is boilerplate (at-will employment etc) - remove.
We need to structure sections: maybe "About the role" (job summary), "Responsibilities" (essential functions), "Qualifications" (experience + required knowledge/skills/abilities + licenses/certifications). Could also have "Skills" separate but we can combine.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It does not mention pay, schedule, benefits. So omit those sections.
We need to use for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive info; not invent or summarize away detail.
Let's extract content:
Job Summary: "Evaluates patients' referred to the Audiology Program. In doing so, determines patient's hearing level, determines most likely site of damage to auditory system, anticipates degree of disability resulting from hearing loss, predicts potential benefits from hearing aid use and/or special training, and prescribes and dispenses hearing aids for hearing impaired patients. Counsels and instructs patients/families in rehabilitative needs, monitors patient's progress and maintains clinical records according to established procedures."
Essential Functions bullet list with sub-bullets? The posting shows:

Required Knowledge, Skills and Abilities: list bullet points:
- Knowledge of anatomy, physiology, sociology, acoustics and phonetics, Auditory rehabilitation, cochlear implants, cerumen management, auditory processing, hearing aid technology and clinical pediatric audiology skills as acquired through completion of a clinical doctorate of audiology (AuD) degree.
- Interpersonal skills necessary to communicate effectively with patient and families in providing treatment and with physicians, speech-language pathologists and other closely related clinical professionals in order to gather and exchange patient information.
- Analytical skills necessary to administer and evaluate standardized audiological tests, evaluate audiometric results, develop treatment plans and monitor patient progress.

Licenses and Certifications:
- BLS-Basic Life Support Healthcare Provider - American Heart Association/American Red Cross/National Safety Council required
- License Audiologist (156) - State of Wisconsin required
Patient Care Responsibility: "Provides care appropriate to patient population and as described in applicable policies and procedures."
We also have "Required for All Jobs:" which we drop.
Now we need to decide sections.
Potential sections:
About the role
-> job summary paragraph.
Responsibilities
-> essential functions list (maybe each bullet as - with subpoints? The essential functions have headings like Developmental, Evaluation etc. We could keep them as part of list items, maybe each as
- with bold heading? But we need to preserve content; we can include the headings inside
- text.
We could also split into sub-sections but instruction says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So one Responsibilities section with a list.
Qualifications
-> combine Experience, Required Knowledge, Skills and Abilities, Licenses and Certifications, Patient Care Responsibility maybe.
But we could also have separate sections for Experience, Skills, Licenses. However instruction says prefer few substantive sections. Could combine all qualifications into one section.
But we need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For qualifications, we have lists (experience is a single bullet, knowledge/skills is list, licenses is list). We can make a
with items.
Patient Care Responsibility is a single sentence; could be a or
- . Probably
.
We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. No issue.
We must not include boilerplate like "Employment is at-will", EEO, etc.
We must not include duplicated lines.
Now produce HTML fragment.
