We need to output only HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, etc. Also remove duplicated lines, application instructions. Must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Must only include sections when posting has real specific content. We need to parse the job description for sections. Let's extract content: - About the role: description of facility, OR, expansion, types of surgeries, patient population, training, etc. Could be considered "About the role" or "Job Summary". We'll put under About the role. - Responsibilities: duties: prepare sterile supplies, equipment, perform room duties, direct patient care, adhere to guidelines, function as member of OR team, scrub and circulate, etc. Also mention training to both scrub and circulate. Also mention performing appropriate room duties involved with direct patient care. - Requirements: Minimum Training and Education: high school diploma or equivalent, graduation from accredited surgical tech program or military program, minimum two years' work experience in OR. Also required licensure/certifications: Certified Surgical Technologist (CST) credential, maintain; current AHA BLS or Red Cross BLS for Healthcare Providers. - Qualifications: maybe same as requirements? Could separate: Qualifications could be the certifications and experience. But we need to avoid duplication. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we might combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section? But they ask to use headings for those categories if content exists. We have content for both Requirements and Qualifications. Could treat Requirements as minimum training/education, and Qualifications as licensure/certifications. That seems reasonable. - Skills: maybe list physical requirements? Those are physical abilities. Could be considered Skills? Or maybe "Physical Requirements" not a standard heading; but we could put under Skills? However the instruction says use headings only for those listed. If we have content that matches Skills (like ability to perform job functions while standing, etc.) we could put under Skills. But those are physical requirements; still could be considered Skills. We'll include a Skills section with the list of physical abilities. - Benefits: posting mentions ambulatory surgery facilities are part of MUSC Magnet designation, Joint Commission Accredited, advanced certification in Shoulder/Hip/Knee Total Joints, nationally recognized by AORN as Center of Excellence in surgical safety for smoke evacuation. Also mentions working with energetic enthusiastic individuals. No explicit benefits like health insurance, PTO, etc. So we should not create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It does mention recognitions but not benefits like health, retirement. So we should omit Benefits. - Pay: posting includes Pay Rate Type Hourly, Pay Grade Health-26, Scheduled Weekly Hours 40. So we have pay info: hourly, grade Health-26. That's specific. So we can include Pay section. - Schedule: posting includes Scheduled Work Hours/Shift: 4-10 hour shifts. Monday-Friday. No nights, weekends, major holidays or call. Late shift required to finish cases. Also hours per week: 40. So we have schedule specifics. So include Schedule. We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We must not include duplicated lines. Ensure we capture all substantive info. Let's extract details precisely.
