Cardiac Electrophysiology Physician Assistant - Inpatient, Outpatient, Procedural
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent. Remove boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Also remove navigation, cookie, duplicated lines, application instructions. We need to include Pay and Schedule only if posting actually states them. Pay: there is a Pay Range $135,720 - $173,867.20/Annual Grade 7. So we can include Pay section. Schedule: there is "Scheduled Weekly Hours 40", "Work Shift Day". So we can include Schedule section. Benefits: posting mentions "comprehensive benefits" but not specific details. It says "In addition to competitive base pay, we offer comprehensive benefits, career advancement opportunities, differentials, premiums and bonuses as applicable and recognition programs". That's vague but still mentions benefits. However rule: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state benefits generally, but not specific. Might be okay to include Benefits section with that generic statement? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Might be better to omit Benefits if it's just generic. But we could include a short Benefits section with the statement about comprehensive benefits. However they said "never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. 'commensurate with experience', 'not specified', 'N/A', 'varies', 'TBD')". The benefits statement is not filler; it's actual statement that they offer comprehensive benefits etc. So we can include Benefits.
Qualifications: includes Education, Licenses and Credentials, Experience. So we can have Qualifications section.
Skills: Knowledge, Skills And Abilities section. So we can have Skills.
Responsibilities: The detailed description of duties (inpatient, ambulatory, procedural, general/working conditions). So Responsibilities.
About the role: Could use the summary/job summary. The posting includes "Summary Job Summary". So we can have About the role section with that summary.
We must not repeat job title as heading. So no heading for Physician Assistant.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /. Use for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to decide what to put in lists vs paragraphs. For responsibilities, we have many duties; could be a list. For qualifications, we have education, license, experience; could be list. For skills, list. For benefits, maybe a paragraph.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting, but we can condense into list items while preserving meaning. Must not omit any substantive detail. That's a lot; we need to include everything mentioned.
Let's extract substantive content:
