Since we already have shift details in Benefits, maybe we avoid duplication. But we could still have Schedule section with shift options and maybe multiple locations? The instruction: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we keep Schedule out and put shift info in Benefits. However we need to include schedule if posting states them. It does state shift options. Could create Schedule section with shift options and maybe multiple locations? But location is not schedule. Could keep schedule separate.
Let's decide: We'll have Schedule section with shift options and maybe note multiple locations? Actually location is not schedule. We'll keep location in Benefits.
