Albemarle County Core Values: maybe not needed? Might be considered boilerplate? It's values statement; could be considered substantive? Probably not needed as it's generic. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Core Values maybe not boilerplate but could be considered fluff. Likely we can omit as not essential. But we need to preserve all substantive information. Core values might be considered substantive? However they are generic statements; but they are part of posting. The instruction says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Might be okay to include as a section? But we only have allowed headings list; we could put under "About the role" maybe. But we can incorporate into About the role.
We need sections: About the role (summary), Responsibilities (essential functions), Requirements (required education/experience), Qualifications (preferred qualifications/certifications), Skills (competency knowledge/skills/abilities), Benefits, Pay, Schedule (remote work/hybrid schedule). Also maybe Physical and Mental Requirements could be part of Requirements or Qualifications? But not in allowed headings. Could be omitted? Might be considered substantive but not fitting headings. Could we create a section like "Requirements" includes physical? Probably okay to include under Requirements.
We must not create Pay/Schedule/Benefits unless posting actually states them. It does state salary range and benefits and remote work schedule.
Thus we will have sections:

Responsibilities
- ... each essential function ...

maybe also include physical? Could add a sentence.Qualifications
