OTHR$18–$19/hrFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes description. We need headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We need to parse content: - About the role: The first paragraph about Aspire mission, then "Aspire Living & Learning is currently seeking a Direct Support Professional (DSP) to provide direct support to individuals with developmental disabilities in a community setting in Bedford, NH." That's about role. So we can put that as About the role. - Responsibilities: The duties: "The DSP will provide support with daily activities, including household chores, meal preparation, recreational activities, learning activities, and physical fitness activities. The DSP will represent the needs, wants, and interest of individuals served or supported by the program, and provide input on program planning and implementation for individuals. As part of your role, you may assist individuals with transportation to community activities, helping them build valuable life skills. Depending on program needs, transportation may involve the use of a company vehicle or, when necessary, a personal vehicle—with mileage reimbursement provided as applicable." - Requirements: Likely "High School Diploma or GED required. Valid US driver’s license and auto insurance required, with at least 3 years of driving experience. Access to reliable transportation is required, and some positions may require the use of a personal vehicle to transport supported individuals, depending on program needs." - Qualifications: Might be "Prior experience working with individuals with disabilities in a professional setting strongly preferred. Basic computer skills, experience using Therap a plus! Excellent verbal and written communication skills. Empathy, enthusiasm, and a passion and dedication for helping others." - Skills: Could be overlapping with qualifications; but we can separate: maybe "Basic computer skills, experience using Therap a plus! Excellent verbal and written communication skills. Empathy, enthusiasm, and a passion and dedication for helping others." But we already used that. Could treat Qualifications as education/licenses, Skills as abilities. Let's decide: Qualifications: High School Diploma or GED required; Valid US driver’s license and auto insurance required, with at least 3 years of driving experience; Access to reliable transportation required. Skills: Prior experience working with individuals with disabilities in a professional setting strongly preferred; Basic computer skills, experience using Therap a plus! Excellent verbal and written communication skills; Empathy, enthusiasm, and a passion and dedication for helping others. - Benefits: The list: Comprehensive Health, Dental, & Vision Insurance; Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) and Health Saving Account (HSA) options; Lifestyle Spending Accounts with JOON; 403(b) Retirement Plan with Employer Match; Generous Paid Time Off; Professional Growth Opportunities; Employer-Paid Life & Disability Insurance, Employee Assistance Program (EAP), Telehealth Services and more! - Pay: "$18.00-$19 per hour, based on education and experience" - Schedule: "Hours: M-F 9a-3p" We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience" etc. Pay and Schedule are specific, so include. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must 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 which content goes into

    vs lists. For About the role: prose paragraph(s). Could be two paragraphs: mission description and seeking DSP. We'll combine into one

    . Responsibilities: list of duties. Could be bullet list. Requirements: list. Qualifications: maybe list? But we separated Qualifications as education/license; could be list. Skills: list. Benefits: list. Pay: maybe

    . Schedule:

    . We must not create sections with no content. All sections we plan have content. Let's craft. Check for any boilerplate to remove: EEO, diversity statement at end: "Aspire Living & Learning believes it must play an active role..." That's EEO/diversity boilerplate; we should remove. Also the "#NH26" tag maybe remove. Also "If you want to join us..." that's application instruction? It's a call to action but maybe considered boilerplate? The instruction says remove application instructions. That sentence is encouraging to apply; we should remove. Also the earlier "Join our collaborative, mission-driven team..." is part of About the role? It's okay. We need to preserve all substantive information; not invent. Let's extract substantive paragraphs: Original text: "At Aspire Living & Learning, we don't just talk about making an impact, we live it. For more than 40 years, we've supported neurodiverse children and adults across New England and Maryland as they discover their passions, unlock their potential, and live more independently in their communities.

Hence, we strongly encourage applications from people with these identities or who are members of other marginalized communities. #NH26" We need to strip the diversity statement and application encouragement and the hashtag. Now structure. About the role: first paragraph up to "Aspire Living & Learning is currently seeking a Direct Support Professional (DSP) to provide direct support to individuals with developmental disabilities in a community setting in Bedford, NH." We could include mission description and that sentence. Let's craft:

    Responsibilities: bullet list of duties. List items: - Provide support with daily activities, including household chores, meal preparation, recreational activities, learning activities, and physical fitness activities. - Represent the needs, wants, and interests of individuals served or supported by the program, and provide input on program planning and implementation. - Assist individuals with transportation to community activities, helping them build valuable life skills (transportation may involve use of a company vehicle or, when necessary, a personal vehicle—with mileage reimbursement provided as applicable). We could combine last two as separate bullet. Requirements: list: - High School Diploma or GED required. - Valid US driver’s license and auto insurance required, with at least 3 years of driving experience. - Access to reliable transportation is required; some positions may require use of a personal vehicle to transport supported individuals, depending on program needs. Qualifications: maybe we treat as education/license? Actually we already used those as Requirements. Could shift: Requirements = experience/skills? But we need to follow instruction: Use sections only when posting has real specific content. We have content for both Requirements and Qualifications. We'll decide: Qualifications: Prior experience working with individuals with disabilities in a professional setting strongly preferred; Basic computer skills, experience using Therap a plus! Excellent verbal and written communication skills; Empathy, enthusiasm, and a passion and dedication for helping others. Skills: maybe we could combine with Qualifications; but we need to avoid thin sections. Could merge Qualifications and Skills into one section called "Qualifications & Skills". But instruction says use headings like Qualifications, Skills. We could still have both if they have content. Let's see if we can differentiate: Qualifications could be education/license; Skills could be abilities/experience. We already used education/license in Requirements; maybe we swap: Requirements = mandatory qualifications (education, license, driving). Qualifications = preferred qualifications (experience, computer skills, communication, empathy). Skills = maybe not needed; but we could still have Skills as "Basic computer skills, experience using Therap a plus! Excellent verbal and written communication skills; Empathy, enthusiasm, and a passion and dedication for helping others." That seems overlapping with Qualifications. Better to have Qualifications = preferred qualifications (experience, computer skills, communication, empathy). Skills maybe not needed; but we could still have Skills as "Basic computer skills, experience using Therap a plus!" but that's duplicate. Given instruction to prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones, we could combine Qualifications and Skills into one section called "Qualifications & Skills". But headings must be exactly from list? It says use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid combining but we should follow the headings if possible. However we can omit a heading if no real specific content. So we could omit Skills if its content is
