We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Remove boilerplate, navigation, EEO, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's parse the posting. Content: - Intro: "When you join The Home for Little Wanderers, you join a team of professionals dedicated to creating better, brighter futures for kids. For over 200 years, The Home for Little Wanderers has helped build stable lives and hopeful tomorrows for vulnerable children and their families.

Along the way, gain new training, hone your skills, and be eligible for bonuses adding up to $5,000 upon successful completion!

Actual compensation will be based on a variety of factors, including a candidate’s relevant experience, education, skills, and internal equity relative to other employees in similar roles. Candidates with less directly related experience may be placed toward the lower end of the range, while those with extensive or specialized experience may be placed toward the higher end. Market conditions and budget considerations may also influence final pay decisions." - Then: "Valuing Diversity We are committed to excellence in diversity, equity, and inclusion, while simultaneously creating a culture that supports those values. We believe the differences we bring enhance our ability to provide exceptional service and care to diverse children, families, and communities. Moreover, diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging align with our values and our mission to help vulnerable children and their families build permanent, positive change." We need to remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The diversity statement might be considered EEO boilerplate? It's about diversity, equity, inclusion. The instruction says remove EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate. So we should remove the "Valuing Diversity" paragraph. Also remove the YouTube link? It's not boilerplate but maybe considered navigation? It's a link to learn more about impact. Might be considered extra but not prohibited. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The YouTube link is not necessarily those categories; but it's a link to learn more about impact. Might be considered navigation? It's a link to external content. Might be okay to keep? The instruction says remove navigation. Could treat that as navigation. Safer to remove it. Also remove the bit.ly link for Impact Corps? That's also a link to learn more; could be considered navigation. Might remove. We need to preserve substantive information: description of organization, role, responsibilities, qualifications, physical requirements, pay range summary, etc. We need to structure into sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide what goes where. About the role: likely a paragraph describing the role and organization. Responsibilities: list of duties: providing safe supportive environment, communicating with other counselors, coordinating activity log, etc. Requirements: maybe things like passing CORI/background check, valid ID, physically active for 8-10 hour shift, participating in verbal de-escalation and physical intervention, multitasking, receiving feedback, ability to work evenings/holidays/weekends. Qualifications: High School Diploma or equivalent, life experience with parenting/childcare preferred, valid driver's license required. Skills: maybe not explicitly listed; but we could infer from responsibilities: communication, de-escalation, physical intervention, multitasking, etc. However we should not invent. If there is no explicit skills section, we should not create one. The instruction: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it. So we should not create Skills if not present. Benefits: The posting mentions Impact Corps fellowship with bonuses up to $5,000 upon completion. That's a benefit. Also maybe other benefits not mentioned. So we can include Benefits section with that info. Pay: The posting includes Pay Range Positioning Summary (though no actual numbers). It says "The pay range listed represents the company’s good faith estimate..." but does not give actual numbers. It's vague but it's still about pay. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state a Pay Range Positioning Summary, albeit without numbers. Should we include? It says "The pay range listed represents the company’s good faith estimate of the salary or wage range for this position at the time of posting". It mentions a pay range listed but we don't see the range numbers in the text. Possibly omitted. However there is a mention of pay range. It's still about pay. I'd include a Pay section with that summary. Schedule: The posting mentions ability to work evenings, holidays, weekend shifts as required, and shifts of 8-10 hour, 6-7 hour shifts for physical requirements. So we can include Schedule section with shift details. Now we need to avoid duplication. Also remove duplicated lines: The "How You'll Be Making A Difference" repeats some content from earlier; we need to deduplicate. Let's extract unique substantive points.
