Cook/ Dietary Aide

We need to output HTML fragment only, with sections as needed. Must not repeat job title. Use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We have: - About Us: description of facility, location, etc. That could be "About the role"? Actually "About Us" is about company. Could map to "About the role"? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can use those headings if content matches. We have "About Us" describing facility; we can put under

About the role

or maybe "About the role" is more about the job. But we have no explicit "About the role" text; we have description of facility and company. Could still use About the role to include that info. Or we could skip if not matching. But we need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include that info somewhere. Use

About the role

with paragraph(s) describing facility and company. Responsibilities: we have Dietary Aide Responsibilities and Cook Responsibilities (two roles?). The posting seems to have two positions? Actually it's a job posting for Dietary Aide? Then later "COOK Responsibilties:" maybe it's a different role? The posting seems to mix. We need to preserve all substantive info. Could combine responsibilities under one section? Might be better to have separate subheadings? But only allowed headings are those listed. Could use

Responsibilities

and list all duties from both Dietary Aide and Cook. That would preserve. Requirements: we have Qualifications section (list). Could map to Requirements or Qualifications. We have both "Qualifications:" and also maybe "Requirements" not explicit. We'll use

Qualifications

for the list. Skills: maybe not explicit; we could skip if no specific skills beyond qualifications. Could omit. Benefits: we have "Employee Benefits for 30+ Hours which may include:" list. So we can include

Benefits

. Pay: not specified; no pay info. So we should NOT include Pay section. Schedule: we have "Hours: 28 hrs/ week". That's schedule info. So we can include

Schedule

with that. We must not include placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We must remove boilerplate: EEO, equal opportunity, scam warning, navigation, cookie, legal, application instructions. The posting includes "Join Our Compassionate Team! Embark on a fulfilling career where compassionate care meets professional growth. Apply now to become a valued member of Apple Rehab Guilford!" That's application instruction; should remove. Also "Note: Benefits and requirements may vary based on employment status and hours worked. Inquire within for specific details." That's maybe boilerplate but contains some info about benefits varying; could be considered minor metadata; we could fold into a short p or drop. Probably drop. Also "(Apple Rehab is an equal opportunity employer committed to diversity and inclusion in the workplace.)" drop. We need to preserve all substantive information: facility description, location, accessibility, memorial garden, staff dedication, family-owned, etc. Also Hours: 28 hrs/ week. Responsibilities for Dietary Aide and Cook. Qualifications list. Benefits list. We must not repeat job title as heading. No job title given explicitly; but we can ignore. We must output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. Let's craft:
